  Mr. TANCREDO. Mr. Speaker, today, I have the pleasure of celebrating 
a young person from my district, Simon Hakob Maghakyan, who was elected 
executive vice president of the Sigma Phi Chapter of Phi Theta Kappa.
  Phi Theta Kappa is the international honor society for two-year 
colleges. Membership is based on academic achievement and members are 
also provided opportunities for growth and development in scholarship, 
leadership, fellowship and service.
  Simon is attending Arapahoe Community College with a major in general 
science, with plans to transfer to University of California at Los 
Angeles. Given his demonstrated dedication to academics and hard work, 
I have no doubt he will be successful in all of his endeavors.
  Mr. Speaker, it is my distinct pleasure to honor Mr. Maghakyan here 
today, and wish him all the best in his future endeavors.
