        role in legislative and policy initiatives to expand the awareness and 
        use of distance learning;
Whereas the United States Distance Learning Association has chosen the week of 
        March 28, 1993, through April 3, 1993, as a week of special recognition 
        for the achievements of distance learning professionals; and
Whereas April 1, 2, and 3, 1993, will be the dates of the Third Annual 
        International Distance Learning Conference, which will convene in the 
        Washington, D.C. area: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United 
States of America in Congress assembled, That the week of March 28, 
1993, through April 3, 1993, is designated as ``Distance Learning 
Week''. The President is authorized and requested to issue a
