Resolution Recognizing College Awareness Month
WHEREAS, a college education will increase a student’s ability to understand developments
in society, to think critically, to express thoughts clearly in speech and in writing, and to make
wise decisions. These skills are useful throughout a lifetime; and
WHEREAS, a college education can help increase a student’s understanding of the
community, the nation, and the world as he or she explores interests, discovers new areas of
knowledge, considers lifelong goals, and becomes a responsible citizen; and
WHEREAS, the world is changing rapidly. Many jobs rely on new technology and require
more brain power than ever. There is fierce competition for jobs that only a few years ago
seemed plentiful. In a student’s working life, more and more jobs will require education
beyond high school. With a college education, students will have more jobs from which to
choose; and
WHEREAS, a person who attends college generally earns more than a person who does not.
When comparing salaries over a lifetime, the earning gap is significant; and
WHEREAS, the Rio Hondo College has proclaimed the month of February 2010 as College
Awareness Month and encourages all educational communities to commemorate this
occasion with appropriate instructional activities; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, that the Rio Hondo College proclaims the month of February 2010 as College
Awareness Month and encourages all educational communities to commemorate this
occasion with appropriate instructional activities.
Adopted this 17th day of February 2010, by the Rio Hondo College Board of Trustees.
