                       TRIBUTE TO DR. LUIS GLASER

  (Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, I would like to pay special tribute to 
an outstanding citizen from my south Florida community, Dr. Luis 
Glaser. For the past 19 years, Dr. Glaser has served as provost for the 
University of Miami. He has been one of the university's most dynamic 
and energetic leaders.
  As a recent graduate of the University of Miami, I am proud to have 
experienced firsthand his exceptional leadership.
  As a Jewish refugee who fled his native Austria at the dawn of the 
Holocaust, Dr. Glaser understands the experience of refugees of so many 
countries who have made the University of Miami the international 
academic center that it is.
  His sensitivity and his insight have allowed him to fully engage in 
the academic life of the university and to maintain direct personal 
contact with its students.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in thanking Dr. Luis Glaser for his 
wonderful service, as well as to his great wife, Ruth, for their 
unparalleled commitment to our south Florida community and to the 
University of Miami community. Go Canes. Thank you, Louie.
