  Mrs. WALORSKI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the 50th 
Anniversary of Holy Cross College. This institution has been a pillar 
of the northern Indiana community for a half century, and I have no 
doubt the next 50 years will be just as meaningful for students, 
faculty, alumni, and the northern Indiana community.
  Holy Cross College was founded in 1966 to advance the apostolic 
mission of the Brothers of Holy Cross. From the beginning, the college 
has been dedicated not only to fostering intellectual growth and 
discovery, but also to cultivating global citizens who are passionate, 
faithful, and courageous.
  Today, with more than 500 students from over 30 states and 18 
different countries, Holy Cross College is putting its values of global 
diversity and integration into action, no doubt enriching the lives of 
each and every student. The prestigious faculty and hardworking staff 
at Holy Cross are committed to providing an engaging and transformative 
college experience, offering enlightenment in numerous areas of study, 
and instilling the values of knowledge, faith, and personal growth.
  Students at Holy Cross have vast opportunities to get involved on 
campus and in the community. The college has played a positive role in 
making northern Indiana a better place to live, learn, and grow. I 
applaud the selfless efforts students past and present have taken to 
give back to those in need.
  It is a privilege to represent the Holy Cross community in Congress. 
I am grateful for the passion, integrity, and intellectual spirit that 
resonates both on and off campus. On behalf of 2nd District Hoosiers, I 
wish to extend my heartfelt congratulations on celebrating 50 years, 
and I am excited to learn of all the amazing things that are sure to 
come.
