  Ms. JAYAPAL. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Northeastern 
University on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of establishing a 
campus in the City of Seattle.
  In 2013, Northeastern opened its doors in Seattle with two programs, 
32 students and 500 square feet of space in South Lake Union, A decade 
later, the campus has nearly 1,800 graduates, a dozen graduate-degree 
programs, hundreds of industry and community partnerships, and is among 
the largest of Northeastern's 13 global locations.
  Northeastern has worked to bring programs in high-growth fields to 
the Pacific Northwest, such as computer science, data analytics, global 
studies and project management. Each program is designed to help 
students thrive in careers through classroom learning and real-world 
experiences.
  On the occasion of this milestone, I am proud to recognize 
Northeastern University as a partner and valued member of the Seattle 
community.
