Online gambling sites can no longer be accessed using West Texas A&M University resources, including WiFi.

“College students at a particularly formative stage in their lives can develop habits and lifestyles that are akin to drug and substance abuse,” said President Walter Wendler. “There is not a single thread of evidence showing predatory gambling has a positive impact on academic excellence.”

Effective immediately, WT students, faculty and staff are not allowed to access any online gambling site using state resources, including any WT-owned cell phones, laptops, tablets, desktops, and other internet-connected devices.

Online gambling websites will also be blocked for anyone using WT-provided WiFi.
