  Mr. FINCHER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the 141 high 
school seniors across the country that have been named a part of the 
50th class of U.S. Presidential Scholars as a result of their academic 
success, leadership, community service, and commitment to excellence.
   I am particularly proud students from my District, William P. Lamb 
of Memphis University School and Kevin J. Sun of Collierville High 
School, have been selected as two of the four students from Tennessee 
for this prestigious honor. I commend them both for being positive role 
models to young people across our great state, and the country through 
their commitment to academic excellence and community service.
   The White House Commission on Presidential Scholars selected the 
members of this year's Presidential Scholars class from 3,900 qualified 
candidates who are among the three million students expected to 
graduate high school this year.
   Once again, congratulations to Mr. Lamb and Mr. Sun for their 
outstanding accomplishments. I am very proud of you both.
