Frat Row on UF Campus

In April, the UF Student Government Senate had the opportunity to support a resolution that could have facilitated the implementation of blue lights along Frat Row. The resolution did not pass, mostly because the Judiciary Committee refused to approve the bill for consideration before the whole Senate. They cited their belief that the fraternity presidents should have been consulted with about the legislation. However, we believe a blue light would be a benefit to all residents of the area.

The bill was then considered under special rules on the Senate floor, and shockingly, the vote culminated in a tie. The Senate President, who was listed as a sponsor on the bill, cast the tie-breaking vote to fail this resolution.

Join us on September 17th at 5 pm as we demand the expansion of campus safety by protesting for the installation of blue lights along Frat Row.
