HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
 
         WHEREAS, Austin Community College has served the educational
  and career training needs of Central Texans for 40 years; and
         WHEREAS, Established in 1972 by voters in the Austin
  Independent School District, ACC opened its doors the following
  year, with the Ridgeview campus welcoming some 1,700 students;
  since that time, it has expanded to include eight campuses, with
  another two in development, and it enrolls a collective 44,000
  students across eight counties; and
         WHEREAS, Today, more than half of local high school graduates
  opt to pursue their higher education at ACC, which offers more than
  235 associate's degrees and certificates in more than 100 diverse
  areas of study and boasts one of the state's top transfer programs;
  committed to accommodating students with a variety of backgrounds
  and goals, ACC provides technical training in various high-demand
  fields and continuing education for professional development and
  personal enrichment; and
         WHEREAS, Austin Community College benefits from the
  leadership of current president Dr. Richard Rhodes, who is joined
  by 5,000 dedicated faculty and staff members in building on a
  tradition of excellence that has spanned four decades; with its
  high-quality education and workforce programs, ACC provides a
  gateway to a bright and fulfilling future for myriad students, and
  in so doing, it contributes to the prosperity of Texas communities
  far and wide; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the 83rd Legislature of the State of Texas,
