A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR DR. MARGARET G. AMICK, LEGISLATIVE AIDE FOR MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, UPON THE OCCASION OF HER RETIREMENT AFTER TEN YEARS OF EXEMPLARY SERVICE, AND TO WISH HER CONTINUED SUCCESS AND HAPPINESS IN ALL HER FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

Whereas, it is altogether fitting and proper that the members of the House of Representatives of the State of South Carolina pause in their deliberations to express their gratitude to Dr. Margaret G. Amick for her significant contributions to the legislative process of this body; and

Whereas, Margaret G. Amick earned a bachelor's degree in business administration from the University of South Carolina; a master's degree in adult education administration from the University of Georgia; and a doctorate in educational leadership and higher education administration from the University of South Carolina; and

Whereas, in 1969, she began her career in education in Richland School District One, teaching typing and shorthand in the adult education program, and she taught the introduction to adult education as a graduate course at the University of South Carolina in 1973; and

Whereas, for almost twelve years, Dr. Amick served in the South Carolina Department of Education, first in the Office of Adult Education as an area supervisor from 1973 to 1980 and then in the Office of Vocational Education from 1980 to 1985; and

Whereas, from 1985 to 1997, she served as a curriculum coordinator for the South Carolina State Board for Technical and Comprehensive Education, teaching and supervising for a year in the developmental education program at the Technical College of the Low Country in Beaufort, and then she served as the vice president for academic affairs at Denmark Technical College; and

Whereas, Dr. Amick began serving the University of South Carolina in Columbia as the dean of academic affairs in 1999 before entering her role as a legislative aide for the House of Representatives in January 2005; and

Whereas, for the last ten sessions of the General Assembly, she has assisted Representatives Wallace Scarborough, Ben Hagood, David Umphlett, Cathy Harvin, Patsy Knight, Alan Clemmons, Bill Bowers, Bill Crosby, Chris Murphy, and Joe Daning as a legislative aide; and

Whereas, she plans to spend many happy hours of retirement actively devoting herself as a lay leader in her church and baking her delicious cakes for the enjoyment of all those fortunate enough to benefit from her sumptuous creations; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are grateful for the years of unparalleled dedication that Margaret Amick has devoted to the educational needs in our great State and wish her many years of enjoyment in her well-earned retirement. 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 Dr. Margaret G. Amick, legislative aide for members of the House of Representatives, upon the occasion of her retirement after ten years of exemplary service, and wish her continued success and happiness in all her future endeavors.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Dr. Margaret G. Amick.
