 TRIBUTE TO ANDREA GLODDY, JAPAN-UNITED STATES SENATE SCHOLAR FROM NEW 
                               HAMPSHIRE

   Mr. SMITH. Mr. President, I rise today to congratulate 
Andrea Gloddy, the New Hampshire recipient of the Japan-United States 
Senate Scholarship. Andrea was selected from more than 500 applicants 
in the Youth for Understanding International Exchange Program to 
represent New Hampshire in Japan.
  Andrea is from Madbury, NH, and just finished her junior year at 
Phillips Exeter Academy. In addition to an excellent academic record, 
she pursues interests in community service, music, photography, and 
sports. Through her work, Andrea has demonstrated great initiative and 
a strong interest in world affairs. She plans to attend college and 
major in International Relations or International Business.
  The Japan-United States Senate Youth Exchange selects one student 
from each State to spend 6 weeks in Japan studying government, 
language, and culture. During her time in Japan, she will participate 
in receptions and meetings with government officials in Tokyo and live 
with a Japanese host family. Andrea will be an outstanding ambassador 
from the Granite State and help foster understanding between two 
different cultures.
  This scholarship program helps prepare the future leaders of our 
Nation by increasing their understanding about the world and shaping 
their global perspectives. I commend Andrea for her hard work, and I 
congratulate her for this distinguished honor. I wish her success in 
Japan and in her academic career.
