Result Killed By Committee
Remarks FAILED - There are very few southern hockey teams, resulting in a very high travel cost. No championship would be possible since there are no other hockey teams in our conference.
Whereas Student involvement and school spirit is a real issue at UTA; and
Whereas There is a need to find common ground on a good team sport to support putting fees and resources to compete nationally; and
Whereas The 1998/99 Student Congress passed resolution 99-20 "Football" to address this concern.
Be It Further Resolved That A feasibility study also be included in evaluating the establishment of a hockey team as a focus of the University's effort to have a nationally competitive sport; and
Be It Further Resolved That This resolution take effect after passage.
