Remarks
Whereas The print quota allowance for students will be decreased from $100 to $50 a school year beginning Fall of 2011; and
Whereas Students must print off many academia-related materials, including assigned papers for professors; and
Whereas Many professors take points off of students' grade if they email the paper to the professors; and
Whereas This runs counter to the University's sustainability efforts.
Be It Further Resolved That Professors are strongly encouraged to accept students' papers via email without penalty to help students save printing dollars and help reduce the consumption of printing resources.
