  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Dr. Cherri 
Parks for being honored by the West Chamber of Commerce.
  Over the last 25 years, Dr. Cherri Parks has maintained a successful 
career at Colorado Christian University. She has served as the Vice 
President for Academic Affairs for the College of Undergraduate Studies 
for the past 12 years. Prior to that, she was a Professor of psychology 
for 13 years.
  Dr. Parks said that her students have brought her much joy over the 
years. She has enjoyed cooking for them, getting to know them and 
sharing in their lives.
  In her early career, Dr. Parks spent time working with women on many 
issues such as finding one's identity, specifically college-aged women. 
She has a strong desire to help people work through challenges in their 
lives.
  I extend my deepest congratulations to Dr. Cherri Parks for this 
well-deserved honor from the West Chamber of Commerce.
