would like to congratulate a number of outstanding women who will be 
recognized at the Somerset County's Commission on the Status of Women 
awards in New Jersey's Seventh Congressional District.
  The Commission presents awards annually in celebration of National 
Women's History Month in March. This year there are 17 women being 
honored, including entrepreneurs, educators and hometown heroes whose 
community service is considered extraordinary.
  This year's Education Award winner is Karyn Malinowski of Manville. 
Karyn is the director of the Rutgers Equine Science Center at the New 
Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station in New Brunswick.
  Karyn has been a faculty member at Rutgers University since 1978. She 
is believed to be the first female equine-extension specialist in the 
nation.
  I am pleased to congratulate Karyn Malinowski for her outstanding 
efforts and share her good work with my colleagues in the United States 
Congress and the American people.
