A RESOLUTION
Honoring Bowling Green State University on its One Hundredth Anniversary.

       WHEREAS,  The members of the Senate of the 128th General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to congratulate Bowling Green State University on its Centennial; and

       WHEREAS,  Recognition of this prestigious milestone is a fitting tribute to Bowling Green State University, for throughout the past century, it has played a vital role in preparing students to meet the challenges of the future. Authorized by the Ohio General Assembly by legislation, which was signed by Governor Harmon on May 19, 1910, and opened for classes in 1914, the former Bowling Green State Normal School became a state college in 1929 and a university in 1935, and it has continually expanded and developed to meet the ever-changing needs of society. With an unwavering commitment to educational excellence, the faculty, staff, and administration of BGSU have worked diligently to offer students a well-balanced curriculum that seeks to develop their academic and practical skills, and they have earned the gratitude and respect of students, parents, and the community alike; and

       WHEREAS,  Colleges and universities provide students with much more than the basic educational skills, and we are certain that the instructors and administrators of Bowling Green State University will maintain their dedication to helping students become capable, well-rounded individuals. As they take part in this Centennial celebration, the school's students, staff, and alumni can be justly proud of this fine institution; and

       WHEREAS,  Education is vital to our nation's continued economic and social well-being, and as the need for global learning and understanding increases, so do the demands placed upon our system of education. Bowling Green State University has consistently and effectively met these demands, and all those associated with the school are deserving of high praise; therefore be it

       RESOLVED,  That we, the members of the Senate of the 128th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, commend Bowling Green State University on its One Hundredth Anniversary and salute it as one of Ohio's finest institutes of higher learning; and be it further

       RESOLVED,  That the Clerk of the Senate transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to Bowling Green State University.
