A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR CHRISTOPHER HALL, THE ACADEMIC PROGRAM MANAGER AND INSTRUCTOR FOR THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM AT CENTRAL CAROLINA TECHNICAL COLLEGE, AND TO CONGRATULATE HIM UPON BEING NAMED THE SOUTH CAROLINA GOVERNOR'S 2014 PROFESSOR OF THE YEAR FOR TWO-YEAR COLLEGES.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to learn that Christopher Hall has been honored as the South Carolina Governor's 2014 Professor of the Year for two-year colleges by the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education; and

Whereas, the Governor's Professor of the Year Award started in 1988 and has honored forty-five faculty members across South Carolina since then; and

Whereas, the program annually recognizes one winner from the public and independent senior colleges and universities and one winner from the two-year public and independent colleges in the State; and

Whereas, from a pool of thirty candidates representing thirty institutions, a selection committee chose the nine finalists for 2014 by reviewing the candidates' information. For the second year in a row, a faculty member from Central Carolina Technical College has received the award; and

Whereas, in the ten years Christopher Hall has served Central Carolina as the academic program manager and instructor for the criminal justice technology program, he has helped to develop the program to include more than one hundred sixty students, with an annual placement rate of almost ninety percent; and

Whereas, he serves his students in and out of the classroom through academic advising, counseling, and student activities, and when he learned that one of his students was in need of a multiple-organ transplant, he organized a fundraiser with his students; and

Whereas, for his involvement in educational and community activities, his colleagues named him Professor of the Year at the college, and Governor Nikki Haley announced Christopher Hall's selection as one of the 2014 South Carolina Governor's Professors of the Year; and

Whereas, he also serves as a reserve deputy with the Richland County Sheriff's Department and as a sergeant in the Provost Marshal's Detachment of the South Carolina State Guard; and

Whereas, believing that education was a career that chose him, he teaches with an insatiable passion for learning which is only outweighed by his desire to share what he learns; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives appreciate the significant contributions that Christopher Hall has made to education in the Palmetto State and celebrate with pride his selection as the South Carolina Governor's 2014 Professor of the Year for two-year colleges. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the House of Representatives of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, recognize and honor Christopher Hall, the academic program manager and instructor for the criminal justice technology program at Central Carolina Technical College, and congratulate him upon being named the South Carolina Governor's 2014 Professor of the Year for two-year colleges.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Christopher Hall.
