                          Tuesday, May 7, 1996

  Mr. GEJDENSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 100th 
consecutive year of publication of the University of Connecticut's 
student-run newspaper, the Daily Campus and to congratulate the current 
and former staff of this the State of Connecticut's largest student 
newspaper on a century of service.
  For 100 years the Daily Campus has been a dependable vehicle for 
communicating news and views to the University of Connecticut, its 
students, faculty, and administration and the local community. The 
Campus has also acted as a training-ground for student journalists, 
editors, and photographers, who not only learn, but practice, their 
craft under the Daily Campus masthead.

  For 100 years, the Daily Campus has been the student-run, student-
produced voice of UConn and a shining example of the free press and 
free speech. Mr. Speaker, as they celebrate their centennial, all those 
associated with the Daily Campus both past and present deserve our 
recognition and heartfelt congratulations.
