                            JOINT RESOLUTION


 
Designating the week commencing October 3, 1993, as ``National Aviation 
                           Education Week''.

Whereas aviation plays a vital role in the everyday lives of Americans;
Whereas the aviation industry makes important contributions to the economic 
        development of the United States and its rapid growth has created a need 
        for persons trained in the areas of aviation management, operations, and 
        maintenance;
Whereas the aviation industry has increasingly become more complex and technical 
        and the future contributions of aviation to the United States are 
        dependent upon an informed and educated public;
Whereas it is important that schools within the United States actively encourage 
        students to become interested in aviation theories and principles, 
        particularly students that have often been underrepresented in technical 
        fields relating to aviation such as women and minorities; and
Whereas a number of States annually recognize the importance of aviation to our 
        Nation and the value of encouraging students to study aviation: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United 
States of America in Congress assembled, That the week beginning 
October 3, 1993, is designated as ``National Aviation Education Week''. 
The President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation 
calling upon the people of the United States to observe the week with 
appropriate ceremonies and activities.
