                        CONGRATULATING CURT FRYE

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. ADRIAN SMITH

                              of nebraska

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, July 8, 2015

  Mr. SMITH of Nebraska. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Curt 
Frye of Wayne, Nebraska, on his recent retirement after 30 years of 
service to the students and faculty at Wayne State College.
   Mr. Frye taught for 18 years in Nebraska public schools before 
becoming Associate Dean of Students at Wayne State in 1985. In the 
years following, he served in numerous roles including Dean of 
Students, Vice President of Student Affairs, and Interim President 
before being named President in 2011.
   Having served at the college longer than any of his predecessors, 
Mr. Frye is known for his dedication to seeing Wayne State students 
succeed. I had the opportunity earlier this year to visit the College 
Center in South Sioux City, a unique partnership established under Mr. 
Frye's leadership to provide a high-quality, affordable education to 
more students in the region. Despite his retirement, Mr. Frye's vision 
and tireless work for the college he loves will continue to benefit 
Wayne State students for years to come.
   On behalf of the people of Nebraska's Third District, I thank Mr. 
Frye for his decades of service to Nebraska education and congratulate 
him and his wife Dianne on the start of this new chapter in their 
lives.
