                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 29, 2001

  Mr. SKELTON. Mr. Speaker, it has come to my attention that a long and 
exceptionally distinguished career in the field of education is coming 
to an end. Dr. E. Edward See, of Warrensburg, Missouri, will retire 
from Central Missouri State University on June 30, 2001.
  Dr. See has been a popular and highly respected educator in the state 
of Missouri for nearly forty years. A graduate of Central Missouri 
State University and Missouri University, Dr. See has specialized in 
theater and speech. Throughout his career he taught junior and senior 
high school in the Raytown, Missouri, school district, as a graduate 
assistant at Central Missouri State University and Missouri University, 
and as a professor and chair of the theater department at Central 
Missouri State University.
  In addition to his commitment in the classroom, Dr. See has directed 
approximately 45 plays at Central Missouri State University and served 
as president and on the board of directors for the Speech and Theatre 
Association of Missouri. He has been honored for endeavors in teaching 
and drama. He was nominated for the Outstanding Teacher Award by the 
Speech and Theatre Association of Missouri, directed a play which 
received commendation from the Kennedy Center/American College Theatre 
Festival, and saw the establishment of seven different scholarships.
  Mr. Speaker, Dr. See deserves the thanks and praises of the many 
students that he has served for so long. I know the Members of the 
House will join me in paying tribute to this exceptional teacher.
