                         Thursday, May 8, 2003

  Mr. LEWIS of Kentucky. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate 
Western Kentucky University's William Biven Forensic Society as its 
members celebrate their national and international championships.
  The students and coaches have had an extremely successful year, 
winning the International Forensic Association Championship, the 2003 
American Forensic Association National Championship, the Delta Sigma 
Rho--Tau Kappa Alpha National Championship and, most recently, the 
National Forensic Association Individual Events Championship. Western's 
forensics program has a legacy of championships, and this year's team 
has again debated its way to the top.
  This evening at Western, the students will present some of their 
award-winning performances. I hope they enjoy this opportunity to relax 
and share their talents with the university and the Bowling Green 
community. They have certainly earned the chance to celebrate and 
showcase their work.
  Congratulations to the students and coach Judy Woodring of the 
Western Kentucky University forensics team. Their dedicated work and 
achievements has brought them and their university recognition and 
pride.
