                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, April 13, 2010

  Mr. ANDREWS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to Margaret 
Marsh, Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, for being chosen by 
the Rutgers University Alumni Association for induction into the 
Rutgers Hall of Distinguished Alumni in 2010. Ms. Marsh is one of 195 
individuals who have received this award out of 380,000 Alumni. It is 
the highest honor given to any Rutgers University graduate.
  Ms. Marsh earned her undergraduate from Rutgers-Camden University and 
later received her PhD. in history from Rutgers-New Brunswick in 1974. 
After becoming Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences in 1998, Ms. 
Marsh earned a reputation as a renowned expert in women's history, 
gender history, American cultural history, and the connections between 
gender and medicine. She has shared her vast knowledge having written 
several books, articles, and essays on these subjects.
  Ms. Marsh has shown immense dedication to the success of her 
institution, and with her leadership, Rutgers' ability to serve the 
citizens of New Jersey has grown. Ms. Marsh is both a dedicated 
administrator and gifted faculty member teaching both undergraduate and 
graduate students as a Distinguished Professor of History.
  Madam Speaker, please join me in congratulating Margaret Marsh on 
this achievement. Her accomplishments represent the very definition of 
Rutgers pride and should not go unnoticed.
