Whereas, under his leadership as Governor, for the first time since 1895, South Carolina had a balanced budget; and

Whereas, Fritz Hollings is known as the "Father of Technical Education" in this State - establishing a system which enabled South Carolinians who grew up on farms and in mill towns to learn marketable vocational skills for the first time; and
