                   IN RECOGNITION OF BERKELEY COLLEGE

 Mr. TORRICELLI. Mr. President, I stand today to congratulate 
Berkeley College for being named the Woodbridge Metro Chamber of 
Commerce Corporate Citizen of the Year. Berkeley College has become a 
vital link in the Township of Woodbridge and throughout Middlesex 
County among students, business leaders, and government officials. 
Cooperation among all three elements has allowed them to form stronger 
relationships, institutions, and alliances throughout the community.
  Berkeley College has fostered this collaborative spirit by hosting a 
number of informational forums such as the Education Foundation's 
Educator Institute, Tech Academy 2000, and other useful job training 
programs. Berkeley College has also sponsored a number of annual public 
service events like the Mayor's Fun Run, the Mayor's Holiday Stroll in 
the Park, and Making Strides in Breast Cancer. Most importantly, 
Berkeley offers a high quality business education to more than 600 
students who receive valuable hands on knowledge of the current 
business culture through the College's association with various 
business and government leaders.
  It is an honor to be able to recognize the achievements of Berkeley 
College.
