                      RECOGNIZING DR. FRANK BROWN

                                 ______
                                 

                       HON. LYNN A. WESTMORELAND

                               of georgia

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, September 22, 2005

  Mr. WESTMORELAND. Mr. Speaker, I recognize the accomplishments of a 
great citizen of the Eighth Congressional District, Dr. Frank Brown.
  Dr. Brown is best known to those of us from Georgia as the President 
of Columbus State University, and has served in that capacity since 
1988. Dr. Brown has overseen the dramatic growth of the university, and 
worked closely with the City of Columbus to make the school a central 
part of the city.
  But we were able to see another side of Dr. Brown last month, when he 
was awarded the Distinguished Citizen Award by the Boy Scouts of 
America, Chattahoochee Council. The Chattahoochee Council gives the 
award to recognize an individual or group that undertakes outstanding 
service to our nation, the state, or the local community. By presenting 
the award, the Chattahoochee Council calls attention to the honors the 
contributions and good works of individuals.
  Dr. Brown is a worthy recipient, due to his commitment to his 
community. It is my privilege to lay such an achievement before the 
House.
