ATTENTION STUDENTS!

It is a violation of Texas Penal Code 42.06 to make a false alarm or
report to a public institution of higher education.  A student accused
of this crime may face charges up to a state jail felony and will be
referred through the student judicial process.  A full description of
the code and subsequent penalty is provided below.  Please help us keep
our university safe and report any suspicious activities to the
University Policy Department or to the Dean of Campus Life and Student
Development.

Sec. 42.06. FALSE ALARM OR REPORT. (a) A person commits an offense if he

past, or future bombing, fire, offense, or other emergency that he knows
is false or baseless and that would ordinarily:
(1) cause action by an official or volunteer agency organized to deal
with emergencies;
(2) place a person in fear of imminent serious bodily injury; or
(3) prevent or interrupt the occupation of a building, room, place of
assembly, place to which the public has access, or aircraft, automobile,
