            RECOGNITION OF DENVER EAST HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

 Mr. BROWN. Mr. President, I would like to take a moment to 
recognize an outstanding group of students from Denver East High School 
in Denver, CO.
  The group participated in a national competition of We the People . . 
. The Citizen and the Constitution, a program in which many honorable 
members of this Senate serve in an advisory committee capacity. The 
competition, which took the form of a simulated congressional hearing, 
tested the students on their knowledge of the fundamental values of 
American constitutional government.
  The Denver east students placed among the top 10 winners at the 
competition. They participated under the leadership of Dr. Deanna 
Morrison, an American government teacher at the high school. At this 
time, I would like to recognize each of the students who represented 
the high school individually. They were:
  John Akolt, Aisha Alkayali, Ned Augenblick, Eric Berson, Kendra Bird, 
Noah Borwick, John Freyer, Susan Givens, Andrea Gibson.
  Erin Gretzinger, Tyler Haring, Daniel Hoefer, Thomas Kerr, Kimberly 
Knous, Sarah Liegl, Justin Milner, Eric Nussbaumer, Kristin Petri.
  Ashby Plain, Nickie Robinson, Laura Ruttum, Lafayette Scott-Pierre, 
Jessica Smith, Alexis Sophocles, Gwendolyn Turner, Lane Volpe, Graham 
Williams.
  At a time when our attention toward young people seem to focus only 
on negative events, I am proud to recognize these exceptional young men 
and women for the excellence they have displayed in their knowledge of 
the ideals and values of the U.S. Constitution.
