                      CONGRATULATING HENRY HERZING

  Mr. COLEMAN. Mr. President, I rise to extend my congratulations to 
Henry Herzing, founder and President of Herzing Colleges, for providing 
40 years of progressive, career-focused education that has prepared a 
diverse student population to meet the needs of employers in 
technology, business, health care, design and public safety.
  Since the first campus opened in Milwaukee, WI in 1965 as a computer 
programming school, Herzing College has grown to include six campuses 
in the U.S. along with other affiliated colleges, five of which are in 
Canada.
  During these 40 years of expanding its campuses and diversifying its 
educational programs, Herzing College has also raised its level of 
credentials from diploma to associate of science, to most recently, 
Bachelor of Science degrees. In recent years, Herzing College has also 
brought its high-quality programs to the online environment to allow 
students in other locations to upgrade their career potential.
  I congratulate Henry Herzing and all his faculty and staff for 40 
years of ``student-centered'' education and urge him to continue to 
play an important role in the higher education community in the United 
States.
