Remarks PENDING
Whereas The student community at UT Arlington is concerned with many political issues such as public transportation and the establishment of a permanent voting precinct on campus; and
Whereas Students living within a dormitory or residence hall are legally allowed to change their voter registration to reflect that location as their voting residence; and
Whereas Voter registration drives, carried out both by branches of student governance and by independent student organizations, take place annually targeting students who live on or near campus.
Be It Further Resolved That Voter registration forms be included in information packets given to all incoming freshman and transfer students at orientation.
