                          DR. HARRY ROSENBERG

  (Mr. HECK asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HECK. Mr. Speaker, I come to the floor today to recognize Dr. 
Harry Rosenberg, founding president of Roseman University of Health 
Sciences.
  In 1999, Dr. Rosenberg rented a small office space in Henderson, 
Nevada, believing he could establish a pharmacy school that would 
produce highly skilled graduates ready to be recruited for work across 
the country.
  His innovative approach to education led him to develop a block 
format curriculum that emphasizes a student-centered active learning 
environment, allowing students to participate in experiential education 
from the very beginning of their studies and complete their doctoral 
degree in just 3 years instead of the traditional 4 years, making 
Roseman one of the most affordable pharmacy schools in the Nation.
  During his tenure, Dr. Rosenberg helped transform Roseman from a 
local school of 38 students to a regional institution with over 1,000 
and offering an array of quality programs in nursing, dentistry, and 
business administration.

  As he prepares for retirement, I commend Dr. Rosenberg for his 
vision, innovation, and commitment to offering students an affordable, 
state-of-the-art education that has and will benefit the State of 
Nevada and the Nation.
