"UA provides an interactive forum, allowing students to discuss issues pertaining to the department and University, as well as matters of contemporarysocio-political importance.

In addition, UA's wide usergroup enables national and international communication in in a friendly community-based forum, harvesting students' relationships with leading computer industry personnel, allowing a greater understanding of life beyond the department and University.

We feel that these issues improve student productivity and result in a more knowledgable and productive individual and, therefore, access to this service should be permitted."
