                     TRIBUTE TO MIDDLEBURY COLLEGE

 Mr. JEFFORDS. Mr. President, I rise today to pay tribute to 
Middlebury College and its student production of ``The Last Supper 
Restoration.'' This group of fine arts students will be one of eight 
participating in this year's American College Theater Festival at the 
John F. Kennedy Center for Performing Arts from April 14 to April 22, 
1997. The production was chosen from among 900 presented on campuses 
throughout the United States in 1996.
  The student playwright, Michael Kanin, was presented with the 
National Student Playwriting Award and has been recognized for his 
tremendous efforts by the Association for Theatre in Higher Education. 
The students' work is in the finest tradition of Vermont and truly 
represent the creative spirit of our Green Mountain State.
  This accomplishment is testimony to the outstanding education and 
diverse opportunities provided by a true center of excellence, 
Middlebury College. Once again, I would like to extend my best wishes 
and congratulations to the Middlebury College thespians.
