                      Wednesday, February 3, 2016

  Mr. LONG. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and congratulate 
Caitlin Kemp-Shukwit, an outstanding student at Missouri State 
University, on her selection to receive the Citizen Scholar Award.
  Each year, this prestigious award is given by Missouri State 
University's Board of Governors to students who have contributed to the 
university, furthered the university's public affairs mission, and have 
been significantly engaged in extra-curricular accomplishments and/or 
in important service activities in the community. Since the award was 
created in 2007, only forty-seven students have been recognized for 
their stellar achievements.
  Caitlin, from St. Louis, Missouri, is one of only six students to 
receive the Citizen Scholar award this year. She is a senior majoring 
in both Dance Performance and Public Relations at Missouri State 
University. She hopes to travel the world and explore different 
cultures after graduation, which is emblematic of her drive for 
cultural enrichment and appreciation. Her professors praise her 
exemplary leadership skills, which she uses to benefit both the college 
and local communities.
  Mr. Speaker, Caitlin Kemp-Shukwit's accomplishments have set a great 
example of what a Citizen Scholar should be, this award represents a 
great deal of her hard work and dedication. I am proud to represent 
students like her and I urge my colleagues to join me in congratulating 
her on this well-deserved achievement.
