Effective immediately; the possession, use, charging, and storage of self-balancing scooters, also known as hover boards, will be prohibited in all campus owned and leased properties. This notice also includes all residential living buildings. This notice is due to recent concerns by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and the impact these devices may have on campus and fire safety.

Texas A&M University-Commerce will continue to monitor the ongoing federal investigation regarding hover board safety and may reconsider this provisional ban based on recommendations from national consumer safety investigations and state agencies.

We appreciate your cooperation!
