In the Fall 2004 Semester, Internet access was cut off for Resident Advisors on duty in the residents halls at the University at Buffalo.

This Petition is to request a reversal of that policy since it is detrimental to our job/school productivity.

To Whom It May Concern:

As a Resident Advisor, it is detrimental to my work to not have internet connectivity in the office while I am on duty. It makes it impossible to accomplish the duties set forth in my job description, such as:

-Program Proposals
-Incident Reports
-Communication with fellow staff members en masse.

I was told as an RA that my academic career takes precedence, yet without internet access the position is harmful to my studies. While I am on duty, I am unable to complete any of the following tasks:

-Take Web Courses via UBLearns.
-Research using search engines or periodicals through UB's library system.
-Access student resources via MyUB.
-Communicate with Faculty.
-Transmit files to internet accessible storage.

Due to the concerns listed above, I request immediate action by the administration of my department to remedy the lack of internet connectivity for Resident Advisors on Duty.
