                        Thursday, March 31, 2011

  Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to recognize the achievements 
of philanthropist and civil leader Carl D. Glickman who will be 
receiving Notre Dame College's highest honor, the 2011 Notre Dame 
College Medal on Saturday April 2. The medal is awarded to an alumnus, 
friend of the College, or civic leader in the Greater Cleveland 
community who exemplifies the values of Notre Dame College by 
demonstrating personal, professional, and global responsibility through 
their community service.
  Glickman and his late wife Barbara have donated millions of dollars 
to scholarship funds and healthcare institutions. Recently, the 
Cleveland Clinic Foundation opened the Glickman Urological Institute, 
named for Carl and Barbara Glickman. Together with fellow Notre Dame 
College Medal recipient Samuel H. Miller, Glickman founded and 
contributed millions of dollars to the Cleveland State University Moses 
Cleaveland Scholarship Fund. He has also donated generously to 
Cleveland Central Catholic High School and the Diocese of Cleveland.
  Carl Glickman has been president of The Glickman Organization, a real 
estate development and management firm, since 1953. He was formerly the 
Director of the Cleveland Port Authority. In the 1960s, Glickman served 
the City of Cleveland as a member of the Mayor's Committee on Urban 
Renewal and the Mayor's Task Force on Higher Education. Over the years, 
has served as chairman of several banks and medical facilities and on 
many boards in the Greater Cleveland community. Currently, he serves as 
trustee emeritus for the real estate investment firm Lexington Realty 
Trust and is on the board of directors of Bear Stearns Companies and 
John Carroll University.
  Dr. Andrew P. Roth, president of Notre Dame College recently said 
that Glickman's ``generosity to the health, welfare and education of 
all citizens of Cleveland deserves our utmost respect. He embodies the 
values of Notre Dame College and its founding Sisters by demonstrating 
relentless dedication to the community. We are honored to present the 
Notre Dame College Medal to this great benefactor of our city.''
  Mr. Speaker and colleagues, it is my privilege to bring to your 
attention this recognition to one of Northeast Ohio's great citizens, 
Carl Glickman, as he receives this high honor from Notre Dame College.
