R E S O L U T I O N
 
         WHEREAS, The University of Texas at El Paso has attained a
  prestigious R1 designation in the Carnegie Classification of
  Institutions of Higher Education; and
         WHEREAS, For nearly half a century, the Carnegie
  Classification has analyzed and categorized higher learning
  institutions with outstanding research and policy analysis
  programs; the R1 designation is conferred to top tier doctoral
  universities with high research activity, and this exemplary
  ranking has been accorded to only 130 out of the 2,883 four-year
  higher education institutions in the United States; and
         WHEREAS, In the past 30 years, under the leadership of
  president Diana Natalicio, UTEP has experienced significant growth
  in its research programs and expenditures; doctoral degree
  offerings have exponentially increased from 1 to 22 programs across
  campus, and annual research expenditures have risen from $6 million
  to $95 million; alongside this expansion in the scope and quality of
  research activities, the university has maintained its commitment
  to access, placing high priority in engaging students in its
  research endeavors; and
         WHEREAS, The University of Texas at El Paso has distinguished
  itself as one of the top research universities in the nation, and
  this newly earned ranking is well-deserved recognition of its
  dedication to educational excellence; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas
  Legislature hereby congratulate The University of Texas at El Paso
  for attaining the R1 designation in the Carnegie Classification of
  Institutions of Higher Education and extend to the administration,
  faculty, students, and staff sincere best wishes for continued
  success; and, be it further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for The University of Texas at El Paso as an expression of
  high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
