	been twice recognized as one of the country's 50 fastest-growing
	community colleges; and
	WHEREAS, Dr.  Anglin has been a strong advocate for
	outcomes-based funding at the state level, and she helped form
	the Texas Community Colleges Consortium for Shared Resources to
	pursue cost savings in new enterprise resource planning software
	and annual allocations from the state legislature; among
	numerous leadership roles, she chaired the Northeast Texas
	Consortium of Colleges and Universities and served two terms each
	on the boards of the American Association of Community Colleges
	and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission
	on Colleges; she has further benefited her fellow citizens as a
	member of the Northeast Texas Workforce Board; the recipient of
	the Teamwork Award 2014 from Workforce Solutions Northeast
	Texas, she has been inducted into the Phi Theta Kappa CEO Hall of
	Honor and the PTK Texas Region Hall of Honor, and her many
	accolades include the organization's Shirley B. Gordon Award of
	Distinction; and
	WHEREAS, Through her outstanding accomplishments, Pam
	Anglin has advanced the vital mission of Paris Junior College and
	made a positive impact at the state and national level, and she
	may indeed reflect with pride on her many contributions; now,
	therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 88th
