                CONGRATULATING THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA

  (Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate the record-breaking completion rates at the University of 
Georgia.
  In just one year, the university's 4-year completion rate for 
freshmen has increased from 72.1 percent to 75.1 percent.
  The university's 6-year completion rate has reached a new high of 
88.1 percent, and the retention rate of students remains strong at 94.3 
percent.
  I commend the university's faculty hiring initiatives that have 
bolstered this already prestigious institution.
  High-demand areas of study such as the Terry College of Business and 
the Franklin College of Arts and Sciences continue to provide students 
with very talented professors, thanks to these initiatives.
  The university has also continued to grow tutoring and peer learning 
programs to provide students with all the resources they need to 
succeed.
  I am proud of the hard work the University of Georgia is doing to 
ensure student success across the board. Go Dawgs.
