WHEREAS, For 30 years, the University of Houston System at |
|
|
Cinco Ranch has been proudly serving the educational needs of the |
|
|
Katy/West Houston area; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The facility was donated by the development company |
|
|
Cinco Ranch Venture when UH-Cinco Ranch first opened in 1980, and |
|
|
students had to drive down a dirt road to reach it; from those |
|
|
humble beginnings, the school has grown to offer more than 30 degree |
|
|
and certificate programs with plans to add more in the near future; |
|
|
and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The university is housed in a 36,000-square-foot |
|
|
building that includes 20 classrooms, computer labs, a student |
|
|
lounge, and videoconferencing rooms; as part of its commitment to |
|
|
the future, UH-Cinco Ranch recently enhanced the facility with an |
|
|
electronic delivery system for courses, a mobile computer lab, |
|
|
library access, and a wireless network; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, For 30 years, the faculty and staff of the |
|
|
University of Houston System at Cinco Ranch have committed |
|
|
themselves to meeting the educational needs of the community, and |
|
|
the school has played a vital role in helping many Texans to prepare |
|
|
for prosperous careers and to otherwise enrich their lives; now, |
|
|
therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby congratulate the University of Houston System at |
|
|
Cinco Ranch on the occasion of its 30th anniversary and extend to |
|
|
its educators and employees sincere best wishes for continued |
|
|
success; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for the school as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
|
House of Representatives. |
