MINOR
This is a Senate Concurrent Resolution recognizing Sarita Cooper-White's basketball career. The changes are primarily formatting and markup differences between the 'As Introduced' and 'As Adopted by Senate' versions, with no substantive policy changes to the resolution's content or effect.
TECHNICAL
Header information was updated to reflect 'As Adopted by Senate' status with revised page numbering and formatting markers.
Some text formatting changed from bullet points to different markup symbols (e.g., ��) in the adopted version, but the content remains identical.
Page breaks and official document numbering were adjusted to reflect the Senate adoption stage rather than the introduction stage.
