FACULTY SENATE

RESOLUTION #03-04--2

 On January 29, 2004 the Faculty Senate adopted the following resolution in honor of Vice Chairperson Mary Hollinshead:

Whereas Mary Hollinshead has served on the Executive Committee of the Faculty Senate for 2 and 1/2 years; and,

Whereas Mary Hollinshead has served as Vice Chair of that Executive Committee for 1 and 1/2 years; and,

Whereas her creative efforts in that service have consistently provided the Executive Committee and the Faculty Senate with insightful analysis of issues coming before them; and

Whereas her tireless efforts in these endeavors are a source of pride to the Faculty Senate and Executive Committee and evidence of the dedication our faculty show in fulfilling our duties; and

Whereas she has undertaken these service activities while maintaining a high level of scholarship as evidenced by having been granted the National Endowment for the Humanities Fellowship for College Teachers for her proposal entitled "Transforming Tradition: Hellenistic Monumental Steps in Greece, Asia Minor and Italy";

Be it resolved that,

While we celebrate these outstanding scholarly and service accomplishments, we acknowledge that we will sorely miss her as she must resign her Faculty Senate position in order to fulfill her obligations under the Fellowship.
