Result n/a
Remarks FAILED. A system similar to that requested by this resolution is already in place. The library has a port station for laptops to print to.
Whereas UT Arlington does not offer any form of wireless printing for students who use their personal laptops; and
Whereas It is time consuming and sometimes not an option to wait for an open computer in the Central Library or Ransom Hall between classes and during high traffic times; and
Whereas Many other universities provide wireless printing options for their students such as: University of Texas at Austin, University of Texas at San Antonio, University of Texas Dallas, University of Houston, Texas A&M University, and Rice University just to name a few.
Be It Further Resolved That UT Arlington provide wireless printing in both the Central Library and Ransom Hall.
Be It Further Resolved That UT Arlington also put into motion plans to incorporate wireless printing in all campus libraries including the electronic libraries.
