  Mr. TOWNS. Mr. Speaker, in my district I am fortunate to have 
educators that perform beyond the levels expected of them. Andrea 
Kostie-Lieberman is illustrative of that type of educator. Andrea is a 
product of New York public schools. She graduated from Berriman Junior 
High School and Thomas Jefferson High School. She earned a B.A. and 
master of science from Brooklyn College. An additional master of 
science degree was obtained from Pace University.
  Andrea is certified by the State of New York as a school district 
administrator, and as a school administrator-supervisor. She is also 
certified as an assistant principal and principal. Her educational 
career began in district 19, where she is currently in charge of 
district 19's Early Childhood Center P.S. 149 Annex.
  [[Page E528]] Dedicated to service, Andrea shares her educational 
expertise by serving on many educational committees, including the 10th 
Congressional Commission on Education. She has served as vice president 
for membership, and as an executive board member of Phi Delta Kappa. I 
am proud to recognize Andrea Kostie-Lieberman for her professionalism 
and dedication.

                       SENATE COMMITTEE MEETINGS

  Title IV of Senate Resolution 4, agreed to by the Senate on February 
4, 1977, calls for establishment of a system for a computerized 
schedule of all meetings and hearings of Senate committees, 
subcommittees, joint committees and committees of conference. This 
title requires all such committees to notify the Office of the Senate 
Daily Digest--designated by the Rules Committee--of the time, place, 
and purpose of the meetings, when scheduled, and any cancellations or 
changes in the meetings as they occur.
  As an additional procedure along with the computerization of this 
information, the Office of the Senate Daily Digest will prepare this 
information for printing in the Extensions of Remarks section of the 
Congressional Record on Monday and Wednesday of each week.
  Meetings scheduled for Tuesday, March 7, 1995, may be found in the 
Daily Digest of today's Record.
