                         Friday, June 21, 2019

  Mr. BAIRD. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to honor Dorothy ``Mom'' Brown 
for her dedication to the Phi Kappa Psi house at DePauw University. Few 
individuals have had an impact on Phi Kappa Psi as great as Dorothy, 
and we thank her for her selflessness.
  Prior to her time with Phi Kappa Psi, Dorothy graduated from Indiana 
University, receiving her Bachelor of Science in Education and Master 
of Science in Administration and Supervision, and began a teaching 
career in Gary, Indiana. After serving as principal in Warren Township 
Schools in Indianapolis in the 1980's, Dorothy returned to her home in 
Greencastle in 1986 to teach in the education department at DePauw 
University.
  In 1993, Dorothy took on a new role as Housemother of the Phi Kappa 
Psi Fraternity. She quickly became an ``anchor'' of Phi Kappa Psi and 
made it a memorable experience for generations of young men over the 
next 26 years.
  She was honored in 2009 for her contributions to DePauw by the city 
of Greencastle as the DePauw Cultural Resource center was renamed in 
her honor. Whether during her time as an elementary school teacher or 
fraternity Housemother, she exemplified leadership and compassion. I am 
proud to call her a fellow Hoosier.
  On behalf of the 4th District of Indiana, I thank her for her 
dedication to her community, and I wish her the very best in 
retirement.
