	R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, Community members, students, faculty, and staff
	from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center El Paso are
	gathering on March 6, 2023, to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the
	institution becoming an independent university within the Texas
	Tech University System; and
	WHEREAS, Since 1973, Texas Tech University Health Sciences
	Center El Paso has provided quality medical education and primary
	health care to the West Texas area; it was initially created as a
	Regional Academic Health Center for the TTU School of Medicine, and
	on May 18, 2013, Governor Rick Perry signed S.B. 120 to formally
	establish TTUHSC El Paso as the fourth of five freestanding
	universities in the Texas Tech University System; with a focus on
	researching cancer, diabetes and metabolism, infectious diseases,
	and neurosciences, the university works to address health problems
	among the Hispanic population, and each year, its physicians,
	clinics, and partnering hospitals provide more than $33 million in
	uncompensated health care services to the El Paso community; and
	WHEREAS, The only health sciences center along the
	U.S.-Mexico border, TTUHSC El Paso encompasses four schools, the
	Gayle Greve Hunt School of Nursing, the L. Frederick Francis
	Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, the Paul L. Foster School
	of Medicine, and the Woody L. Hunt School of Dental Medicine; while
	partnering with local hospitals, the university provides vital
	opportunities for medical residency, clinical rotations, and
	postgraduation job placements; and
	WHEREAS, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center El Paso
	helps to remove barriers to health care and offers students
	life-changing educational opportunities, and it is a pleasure to
	join in honoring the university on the occasion of this important
	milestone in its history; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
	Legislature hereby commemorate the 10th anniversary of Texas Tech
	University Health Sciences Center El Paso becoming an independent
	university within the Texas Tech University System and extend to
	all those associated with the university sincere best wishes for
	continued success; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this Resolution be
	prepared for TTUHSC El Paso as an expression of high regard from the
	Texas House of Representatives.
