                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, October 23, 2018

  Mr. COLLINS of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
establishment of the Women in Science Scholarship at Truett McConnell 
University.
  The Office of Advancement and the Pilgram Marpeck School of Science, 
Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics have raised close to $3,000 to 
fund the scholarship for females majoring in biology or exercise 
science. This scholarship has already helped students attend the 
Integrative Physiology of Exercise Conference through the American 
College of Sports Medicine in San Diego, California.
  Because of their efforts in departmental fund raising and garnering 
private donations, the women selected for this scholarship will be able 
to present scientific research, enrich their presentation skills, and 
enhance their professional network for future careers.
  I celebrate this new opportunity for women in Northeast Georgia and 
wish the recipients success along their academic journey.
