| HOUSE RESOLUTION
|
| 2 |
| WHEREAS, Dick Shockey, a longtime Danville Area Community |
| 3 |
| College (DACC) administrator, will retire May 1, 2005, as |
| 4 |
| vice-president of finance and administration; and
|
| 5 |
| WHEREAS, He taught and coached in Iowa after graduating |
| 6 |
| from college and was a superintendent before going to a |
| 7 |
| community college in Rhinelander, Wisconsin; he was at |
| 8 |
| Rhinelander four years before coming to DACC; and
|
| 9 |
| WHEREAS, He is known for his years of service as director |
| 10 |
| of the NJCAA Division II Men's Basketball Tournament, but he |
| 11 |
| has been instrumental in many developments on the eastside |
| 12 |
| Danville campus; although he will retire from DACC, he will |
| 13 |
| continue as tournament director; and
|
| 14 |
| WHEREAS, Many of the accomplishments that have occurred in |
| 15 |
| the past 16 years at DACC have been a result of his leadership |
| 16 |
| and involvement; he has been responsible for the finances, |
| 17 |
| facilities, administrative computers, bookstore, campus |
| 18 |
| service, and athletics during his tenure at DACC; and
|
| 19 |
| WHEREAS, Probably his biggest challenge has been the NJCAA |
| 20 |
| tournament; in 1993, the tournament moved to Danville and he |
| 21 |
| has been the tournament director ever since; the community |
| 22 |
| continues to be very supportive of the tournament; therefore, |
| 23 |
| be it
|
| 24 |
| RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE |
| 25 |
| NINETY-FOURTH GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that |
| 26 |
| we express our sincere appreciation to Dick Shockey for his |
| 27 |
| exemplary service to the Danville Area Community College, and |
| 28 |
| extend to him our best wishes as he continues on as the NJCAA |
| 29 |
| tournament director; and be it further
