Remarks | No further information is available about this resolution. |
Whereas | The right to vote is a precious commodity taken for granted by many; and |
Whereas | College age students as a collective group are in an important voting block come election time; and |
Whereas | Politicians realizing the above fact may be more responsive to pro-higher education legislation if they know the potential of college age voting. |
Be It Further Resolved That | UTA establish a system whereby a student admitted into the university is also registered to vote at the same time; and |
Be It Further Resolved That | If the admitted student is not of voting age at that time, it can be done at the first registration period applicable. |
