                      Wednesday, February 28, 1996

  Mr. KILDEE. Mr. Speaker, I stand before you today to ask that you and 
my colleagues in the U.S. House of Representatives join me in paying 
tribute to Dr. William D. Shaw.
  Dr. Shaw is being honored by his many family members and friends on 
March 2, 1996, for his 33 years of service and dedication to the field 
of education. Dr. Shaw began his career in 1962 as a teacher in the 
Concord Public School District of Michigan. He continued in numerous 
teaching and administrative positions in Concord before moving on to 
East Lansing, MI, where he became a instructor at Michigan State 
University. In 1974 he joined the staff of Bedford Public Schools as 
director of instruction. Fortunately, in 1978 he moved to the Swartz 
Creek community schools. During his years of serving the students of 
Swartz Creek he held the positions of assistant superintendent for 
instruction and assistant superintendent for instruction and business 
operations. Dr. Shaw has maintained an involvement in his profession 
through membership in numerous county and State associations. 
Additionally, he has served as a adjunct lecturer at both Michigan 
State University and Central Michigan University.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask you and all my colleagues in the U.S. House of 
Representatives to join me in congratulating Dr. William D. Shaw on his 
retirement from 33 years to the field of education and wish he and his 
wife Mary the very best in retirement.
