                      REMEMBERING DR. BOB NICHOLS

  (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. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to grieve the loss 
of Dr. Bob Nichols, who passed away on December 20.
  Dr. Nichols was a renowned professor at Young Harris College with an 
impressive 35-year teaching career at the school. He taught math and 
coached tennis at the Westminster Schools in Atlanta, Gainesville State 
College, and Young Harris College.
  Dr. Nichols was an All-American tennis player during his time at 
Georgia Tech and earned a spot in the Georgia Tech Sports Hall of Fame.
  Dr. Nichols impacted thousands of students during his 42-year 
teaching career. In September 2011, Young Harris College named their 
campus tennis complex in honor of Dr. Nichols.
  Additionally, Dr. Nichols designed a strong advising program and was 
the chair of the mathematics and science division at Young Harris 
College.
  The college's board of trustees awarded him professor emeritus status 
in 2010 for his decades of dedicated service, and he received several 
other remarkable awards.

  Dr. Nichols will always be remembered as an outstanding coach, an 
outstanding mentor, and a friend to all.
