Remarks No further information is available about this resolution.
Whereas UTA is a major metropolitan university; and
Whereas The campus of UTA should have the look of a major metropolitan university; and
Whereas Today on the campus of UTA, trash receptacles are made from old 20-30 gallon steel drums; and
Whereas Holes are punched in the bottom of these steel drums trash receptacles so that water will not collect in them; and
Whereas Since many students deposit their half empty cokes in these steel drum trash receptacles there is a large quantity of coke syrup on the ground around them; and
Whereas This coke syrup forms a large dark discolored patch on the sidewalks in front of many buildings and bridges on campus, and at times large dark patches of coke syrup can have a tendency to produce a foul odor, and trash receptacles made from old 20 - 30 gallon steel drums do not convey the image of a major university.
Be It Further Resolved That All trash receptacles on the campus of UTA shall all conform to a set standard; and
Be It Further Resolved That This standard shall call for blue trash receptacles similar to the ones currently in place between the Engineering I bldg and Nedderman Hall; and
Be It Further Resolved That All trash recepatacles shall have places on them in white vinyl lettering the UTA logo.
