        RECOGNIZING CABRINI COLLEGE FOR EXCELLENCE IN EDUCATION

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. CURT WELDON

                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                     Wednesday, September 24, 1997

  Mr. WELDON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise to pay tribute to 
Cabrini College in Radnor, PA which has the distinguished honor of 
being named today to the John Templeton Foundation's 1997-98 Honor Roll 
for Character-Building Colleges.
  One of only 134 colleges nationwide selected for this honor, Cabrini 
deserves recognition for its dedication to emphasizing character 
building as an integral part of student life. Cabrini College's 
commitment to character building is reflected by the school's inclusion 
of community service in its student curriculum.
  Other aspects of Cabrini College that contributed to its being named 
to the John Templeton Foundation's Honor Roll include the school's 
emphasis on developing and strengthening of its students moral 
reasoning skills, its encouragement of spiritual growth and moral 
values, and its promotion of character-building programs and 
activities.
  A private, Catholic college located in the suburbs of Philadelphia, 
Cabrini College's faculty-student interaction, beautiful campus, and 
excellent curriculum make it one of the most respected institutions in 
the region. I am pleased that Cabrini College is receiving the national 
recognition and respect that it has earned many times over.
  I ask my colleagues to join me today in recognizing this significant 
accomplishment of Cabrini College and thanking the John Templeton 
Foundation for its promotion of character-building colleges like 
Cabrini.
