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.
