In memory of Lamar Gene Urbanovsky.
This is a commemorative Senate Resolution (SR 6), not a legislative bill. It honors Lamar Gene Urbanovsky, a former chancellor of the Texas State University System who died in July 2025. The resolution recognizes his career, including his leadership from 1989 until 2005, his role in expanding the university system, and his community contributions. It serves solely as a tribute from the Texas Senate to his legacy and condolences to his family.

MODERATE
The bill was converted from an introduced draft to an enrolled final version, adding official formatting, removing draft markings, and updating the legislative session from the 1st Called Session to the 2nd Called Session of the 89th Legislature. The substantive content honoring Chancellor Emeritus Lamar Gene Urbanovsky remains unchanged, with only minor text corrections like changing 'Brethern' to 'Brethren' and adjusting spacing. This represents a procedural finalization rather than a policy change.
Scope change
No substantive scope change; the bill's purpose and content remain identical, only the session designation was updated from 1st to 2nd Called Session.
TECHNICAL
Updated legislative session reference from '1st Called Session' to '2nd Called Session' in the resolved clause.
Corrected spelling error changing 'Brethern Churches' to 'Brethren Churches' in the text.
Added official enrolled formatting including signature lines for President and Secretary of the Senate, certification language, and sponsor name.
Removed draft markings, page numbers, and internal document identifiers from the original introduced version.
