Result n/a
Remarks FAILED - Public Utilities Commission rules prohibit pay phones that have metro lines.
Whereas UTA is considered a commuter school; and
Whereas Many students commute from Dallas County; and
Whereas Students should be able to call places in the metropolitan area at a minimal cost; and
Whereas Any student wishing to call Dallas County must pay long distance prices because there are no metro pay-telephones on campus.
Be It Further Resolved That The administration shall have the metro pay-telephones reinstalled in the University Center and the Central Library.
