TO DECLARE WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 2001, AS "ETIQUETTE DAY IN SOUTH CAROLINA" AND TO COMMEND THE UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA'S EDUCATIONAL TALENT SEARCH PROGRAM AND ITS PARTICIPANTS FOR THEIR OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENTS AND PROGRESS IN BECOMING PRODUCTIVE CITIZENS.

Whereas, the Educational Talent Search Program at the University of South Carolina encourages middle school and high school students to complete their secondary education and to pursue completion of post-secondary degrees; and

Whereas, the Educational Talent Search Program serves to prepare students of tomorrow with skills and knowledge to become productive and contributing members of society; and

Whereas, a key component of student success is the use of etiquette and decorum that allows students to respond appropriately in familiar and unfamiliar situations and helps them build self-confidence and self-esteem; and

Whereas, the eighth grade curriculum focuses on etiquette during the month of January, 2001, and culminates with an etiquette luncheon on Wednesday, February 14, 2001, designed to provide students an opportunity to implement what they have learned in a practical setting; and

Whereas, the lessons learned by these students are lessons that all South Carolinians would benefit from learning. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the General Assembly, by this resolution, declare Wednesday, February 14, 2001, as "Etiquette Day in South Carolina" and commend the University of South Carolina's Educational Talent Search Program and its participants for their outstanding achievements and progress in becoming productive citizens.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Dr. Paul L. Beasley, Director of TRIO Programs at the University of South Carolina.
