A resolution celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of Texas Tech University.
SRES 317 is a U.S. Senate resolution introduced by Senators Cornyn and Cruz to symbolically celebrate the 100th anniversary of Texas Tech University's founding. The resolution recognizes the university's historical milestones, including its establishment as Texas Technological College in 1923, its growth to over 40,000 students, and its achievements in research, military support, and academic programs. It does not create new laws or policies, as it is a commemorative resolution without binding effect. The resolution extends the Senate's congratulations to Texas Tech University and its community for its contributions to education and the state of Texas.
