                     Wednesday, September 17, 2014

  Mr. FOSTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the ribbon cutting 
of the Veterans Resource Center at Joliet Junior College.
  The Veterans Resource Center will benefit approximately 300 students 
that use GI education benefits every semester at Joliet Junior College. 
The dedicated space will provide veterans with an area to socialize, 
study, access computers, and attend counseling sessions.
  I applaud Joliet Junior College for providing our veterans with 
services like the Veterans Resource Center and for its dedication to 
ensuring that the men and women who serve our country have access to a 
great education in a supportive environment.
  I congratulate Joliet Junior College on opening the Veterans Resource 
Center and thank the college for its hard work on behalf of our 
veterans.
