MINOR
This bill is a Senate Resolution commending a law school Hall of Fame inductee. The changes are primarily formatting and layout updates rather than substantive policy changes. The text was reorganized from a multi-page document with line numbers and pagination markers into a cleaner single-page format.
TECHNICAL

Removed line number annotations, page headers, and pagination markers that were present in the original draft version.

Consolidated the resolution text from multiple pages into a single continuous format for easier reading and printing.

Updated the title header to indicate this is the 'As Adopted by Senate' version rather than the 'As Introduced' version.
