  Mr. KUCINICH. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Thomas J. Scanlon 
as the 2007 recipient of the Cleveland-Marshall College of Law Alumni 
of the Year Award. His ongoing support of the School, as well as 
commitment to the community, has made him a worthy recipient.
  Since his graduation from Cleveland-Marshall in 1963, Tom has 
dedicated his efforts to making Cleveland-Marshall a premier 
institution for the study of jurisprudence. He has served as president 
of the Alumni Association, and currently serves as a member of the 
Dean's Committee. Tom has also devoted his time and energies to 
improving the health and vibrancy of the Northeast Ohio community. Tom 
has served, and still serves, as a trustee for numerous organizations, 
such as the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, West Side Ecumenical 
Ministry, and the Irish-American Association, just to name a few.
  Madam Speaker and colleagues, please join me in honoring Thomas J. 
Scanlon for his tireless dedication to Cleveland-Marshall College of 
Law and Northeast Ohio. May his service and hard work serve as an 
example for us all.

                          ____________________
