  Ms. LORETTA SANCHEZ of California. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor 
the accomplishments and contributions of a visionary in higher 
education, Dr. James L. Doti, on the start of his third decade as 
President of Chapman University.
  Dr. Doti has devoted his academic career to Chapman University and 
has transformed it from a small local college to a prominent nationally 
ranked university.
  Under his leadership, Chapman University has attracted exceptional 
faculty and students, including international and national award 
winners, noted scholars, best-selling authors, highly respected 
researchers and world-renowned performers.
  Dr. Doti is an accomplished and active scholar, having published 
numerous articles, co-authoring two textbooks and serving as co-editor 
of a collection of readings in private enterprise.
  Among his many accolades, Dr. Doti has received the George Washington 
Honor Medal from the Freedoms Foundation at Valley Forge and has been 
inducted into the Horatio Alger Association of Distinguished Americans.
  In addition, Dr. Doti has played a critical role in establishing the 
School of Law and the Dodge College of Film and Media Arts at Chapman, 
both of which have achieved national distinction in their fields.
  I congratulate President Doti on his exemplary service to higher 
education and wish him continued success.
