Result Killed By Committee
Remarks FAILED - Call tracing for malicious calls can already be done. Also, most calls on campus come from cellular phones.
Whereas The University of Texas at Arlington provides students with a pro bono phone line in their residence halls as well as certain apartment complexes; and
Whereas Even though these are metro-lines, they only have basic service; and
Whereas The University has implemented supplementary phone services to departments (such as caller ID) for a certain price; and
Whereas Students have maliciously been receiving prank calls.
Be It Further Resolved That The University provide accompanying phone services (such as caller ID) at a nominal fee to the students that live in residential housing where the phone line is provided by the University.
