Joint Resolution 
To designate December 11, 1986, as "National SEEK and College Discovery Day". 
Oct. 21, 1986 
[H.J. Res. 735] 
Whereas the development of effective means to foster higher edu-
cational opportunity and attainment among members of minority 
groups, the economically disadvantaged, and the educationally 
underprepared is a matter of great national concern; 
Whereas the City University of New York has implemented two 
programs—College Discovery for community college students, and 
SEEK (Search for Elevation, Education, and Knowledge) for 
senior college students—which provide specialized counseling, re-
medial instruction, and tutorial services enabling nearly 14,000 
disadvantaged students a year to receive the benefits of a college 
education; 
Whereas almost 100,000 students have participated in the SEEK 
and College Discovery programs since their inception 20 years 
ago, which the City University of New York is celebrating in a 
special ceremony December 11,1986; and 
Whereas the concept and innovative educational techniques em-
ployed by the SEEK and College Discovery programs have served 
as a forerunner and model for college remedial programs across 
the country, and for the Federal TRIO program under title IV of 
the Higher Education Act of 1965: Now, therefore, be it 
Ante, p. 1308. 
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United 
States of America in Congress assembled. That December 11,1986, is 
designated as "National SEEK and College Discovery Day", and the 
President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation call-
ing upon the people of the United States to observe such day with 
appropriate ceremonies and activities.

Joint Resolution 
Designating the month of November 1986 as "National Alzheimer's Disease Month". 
Whereas more than two and a half million Americans are affected 
by Alzheimer's disease, which is a surprisingly common disorder 
that destroys certain vital cells of the brain; 
Whereas Alzheimer's disease is the fourth leading cause of death 
among older Americans; 
Whereas Alzheimer's disease is responsible for 50 per centum of all 
nursing home admissions, at an annual cost of more than 
$25,000,000,000; 
Whereas in one-third of all American families one parent will 
succumb to this disease; 
Whereas Alzheimer's disease is not a normal consequence of aging; 
and 
Whereas an increase in the national awareness of the problem of 
Alzheimer's disease may stimulate the interest and concern of the 
American people, which may lead, in turn, to increased research 
and eventually to the discovery of a cure for Alzheimer's disease: 
Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United 
States of America in Congress assembled, That the month of Novem-
ber 1986 is designated as "National Alzheimer's Disease Month". 
The President is requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the
