  Mr. DENT. Mr. Speaker, it is my pleasure to recognize the 150th 
Anniversary of Lebanon Valley College. Lebanon Valley College was 
founded on February 23, 1866. For 150 years it has delivered quality 
liberal arts educational instruction to its students.
   During this time, the school has grown to become a vital and vibrant 
part of the culture and community of Lebanon County and of Annville 
Township.
   Lebanon Valley College currently offers thirty-six undergraduate 
majors to its student body of approximately sixteen hundred 
undergraduate students. At various times, the U.S. News & World Report, 
the Princeton Review and Forbes have all placed the school on their 
respective lists recognizing America's best colleges.
   Mr. Speaker, I warmly extend my congratulations to the students, 
faculty, employees, administrators and alumni of Lebanon Valley College 
on the happy occasion of their Sesquicentennial. I extend my 
congratulations to Lebanon Valley College for its outstanding record of 
successfully providing so many young men and women with a strong 
liberal arts education, and wish continued growth and success for the 
College and all of its students.
