 Commending and supporting the efforts of Students in Free Enterprise 
(SIFE), the world's preeminent collegiate free enterprise organization, 
                    and its president, Alvin Rohrs.

Whereas the Nation knows the importance of supporting free market thinking and 
        the entrepreneurial spirit;
Whereas Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) is the world's preeminent collegiate 
        free enterprise organization, and provides leadership training, 
        regional, national, and international competitions, and career 
        opportunity fairs for thousands of university and college students;
Whereas SIFE provides university and college students the best opportunity to 
        make a difference and to develop leadership, teamwork, and communication 
        skills through learning, practicing, and teaching the principles of free 
        enterprise;
Whereas SIFE is a force in promoting international business awareness, through 
        its operation in more than 33 countries of the world, including former 
        Soviet republics and China;
Whereas SIFE is active on more than 1,400 university and college campuses 
        worldwide, involving students and faculties in challenging competitions;
Whereas SIFE promotes the entrepreneurial spirit while reinforcing good business 
        practice;
Whereas SIFE encourages teamwork and education through participation in learning 
        projects and provides a competitive framework that prepares students for 
        business;
Whereas SIFE gives students a forum to interact with potential employers, as 
        well as providing formal career fairs and information;
Whereas SIFE depends upon the support and involvement of members of the faculty, 
        whose advice and commitment are essential;
Whereas Alvin Rohrs, SIFE President and Chief Executive Officer since 1983, 
        successfully reversed the organization's fortune by seeking a diverse 
        board of directors to energize the organization;
Whereas Alvin Rohrs inspires others by leading the charge to give people the 
        tools for economic success; and
Whereas SIFE benefits from the wider business community, which appreciates 
        SIFE's importance in shaping business thinking in free enterprise: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives commends and supports 
the efforts of Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE), the world's 
preeminent collegiate free enterprise organization, and its president, 
Alvin Rohrs.
