CONGRATULATING DR. RYAN C. AMACHER, DEAN OF THE COLLEGE OF COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY AT CLEMSON UNIVERSITY, ON HIS APPOINTMENT AS PRESIDENT OF THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON.
Whereas, the members of the General Assembly were delighted to learn that Dr. Ryan C. Amacher, Dean of the College of Commerce and Industry at Clemson University, was recently appointed to be President of the University of Texas at Arlington; and
Whereas, the State of South Carolina will surely be the loser when Dr. Amacher and his wife, Susan, move to Arlington in July; and
Whereas, Ray Amacher's career has been an example of how hard work and devotion to a job has paid off; and
Whereas, after joining Clemson University in 1981 as Professor of Economics and Dean of the College of Commerce and Industry, he has distinguished himself at Clemson by serving as a member of the Textile Study Committee, the South Carolina Small Business Development Center Consortium, on the Board of Directors of C&S Bank, and is a consultant to the South Carolina Chamber of Commerce and the South Carolina Textile Manufacturers Association; and
Whereas, he has served on Governor Carroll Campbell's Transition Team and is presently a member of the Governor's Council on Competitiveness; and
Whereas, Dr. Amacher is author, coauthor, or coeditor of ten books and has written numerous articles and chapters and is a reviewer for Journal of Political Economy, American Economics Review, and National Science Foundation; and
Whereas, by taking this presidency, Dr. Amacher leaves a great void, but the members of the General Assembly wish to extend to him and his wife, Susan, best wishes in their future endeavors. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:
That the members of the General Assembly congratulate Dr. Ryan C. Amacher, Dean of the College of Commerce and Industry at Clemson University on his appointment as President of the University of Texas at Arlington.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Dr. Ryan C. Amacher.
