                        Friday, August 15, 2025

  Ms. CRAIG. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Rasmussen 
University on their 125th anniversary.
  Founded in St. Paul, Minnesota, on September 1, 1900, Rasmussen 
University has spent 125 years building a powerful legacy of 
opportunity. What began as a small business school has grown into a 
regionally and nationally recognized institution committed to career-
focused education that transforms lives and strengthens communities.
  Rasmussen has long served students who are often underrepresented, 
underserved, or overlooked by traditional higher education--providing 
the support, flexibility, and access they need to pursue a brighter 
future. Over the last 125 years, they've helped students prepare for 
careers that truly matter in health care, business, public service and 
beyond.
  I am proud to represent Rasmussen's Eagan campus, recognized as a 
national leader in nursing education. They are a Minnesota staple with 
other locations in Bloomington, Eagan, Brooklyn Park, Mankato, St. 
Cloud, and Moorhead.
  Rasmussen University serves more than 3,000 currently enrolled 
Minnesotans and has proudly graduated over 28,000 students from across 
the state.
  I congratulate Rasmussen University and I look forward to their 
continued success.
