                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, September 7, 2016

  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Shayak Sengupta 
of Sugar Land, TX for receiving a Fulbright award for his energy 
research in India during the 2015 through 2016 academic year.
  Each year the Fulbright Program grants students with the opportunity 
to study, research or teach English abroad in an effort to 
internationalize communities and campuses around the world. Fulbright 
scholars focus on the conditions and challenges differing regions face, 
as well as building valuable U.S. relationships. Shayak graduated from 
Hightower High School and attended Rice University. Under the Fulbright 
program, he studied the effectiveness and cost of air pollution control 
technologies in Indian coal power plants.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Mr. Shayak Sengupta for receiving this 
Fulbright award. Keep up the great work.
