recognize Janet Bartlett, who has been selected as a role model

theme of Women's History Month in 2003 is "Women Pioneering the 
Future"; and

people's dental care by organizing charity basketball games 
between alumni of The University of Texas at El Paso and area 
dentists; she has also contributed to the community's knowledge 
of health issues by helping create the Health Connection exhibit 
at the Insights El Paso Science Museum; and
	WHEREAS, With her many gifts and talents and through her 
initiative and perseverance, Janet has set a lasting standard 
for others to emulate; and

	WHEREAS, Her worthy accomplishments and her pioneering 
spirit truly make Janet an inspiration for all citizens of 
El Paso and a source of pride for all Texans; now, therefore, 
be it
