  Mr. BACA. Mr. Speaker, I rise to pay tribute to Dr. Michael Lemay, 
who is retiring from the California State University San Bernardino 
after 12 dedicated years of service to the university. Dr. Lemay is an 
individual of great distinction, and we join with family and friends in 
honoring his remarkable achievements and expressing pride in his work 
throughout the last dozen years.
  Dr. Lemay has devoted his life to helping students through his chosen 
profession in education. His kindness and passionate spirit make him an 
incredible resource to the university and beloved community member.
  For the past 12 years, Dr. Lemay has dedicated himself to Cal State 
San Bernardino, serving as Associate Dean, Assistant Dean, Department 
Chair, Academic Advisor, and Professor. In these capacities, he has 
been an integral contributor to the management and administration of 
the school, as well as a participant in developing the young minds of 
the future.
  Through his participation in countless activities and committees, Dr. 
Lemay has exhibited kindness, love, humility, and a deep resolve to 
ameliorate all aspects of university life, so it is only appropriate 
that we thank him today. He has received the highest evaluation of his 
profession for integrity and performance, and has taken a proactive 
approach to leadership at Cal State San Bernardino.
  I join today with family in friends in congratulating him for his 12 
years of service. He is a symbol of all that is good in his profession 
and an inspiration to all that know him.
  And so, Mr. Speaker, we salute Dr. Michael Lemay. We express 
admiration in his career and hope that others may recognize his good 
works in the community.
