Remarks | Due to the feedback from staff and the realization that university funds could be better utilized for boards in other areas, the resolution was generally viewed as an ineffective decision at this time. |
Whereas | UT Arlington has a wide range of events that happen on campus frequently; and |
Whereas | The organizations arranging these events reach out to the student community through posters and chalking on streets on campus along with other means of advertisement; and |
Whereas | This restricts the outreach primarily to students who live on campus because majority of the posters are placed only on buildings and pillars within the campus limits; and |
Whereas | This leads to commuter students rarely hearing about events through any other medium but social media; and |
Whereas | Commuter students who drive, park their cars in the numerous parking lots available on campus. |
Be It Further Resolved That | The University looks into creating notice boards or a similar outreach mechanism in parking lots for organizations on campus to utilize to reach out to the vast commuter student community of UTA. |
