                        Wednesday, May 11, 2005

  Ms. MOORE of Wisconsin. Mr. Speaker, I rise to today to congratulate 
a distinguished constituent of the Fourth Congressional District, Dr. 
Ian Harris, who was recently honored for 30 years of service to the 
University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
  Dr. Harris serves on the faculty of the School of Education at UW-
Milwaukee. He is currently chairperson of the Department of Educational 
Policy and Community Studies, and was the founder of the Peace Studies 
Certificate Program. He is widely known in national and international 
circles for his work in the field of peace research.
  The hallmark of Dr. Harris' work is his dedication to non-violence 
and peaceful methods of conflict resolution. He has published numerous 
articles and books, including one that offers peacebuilding strategies 
for educators and community leaders who work with young people.
  Dr. Harris' approach is certainly relevant to the needs of young 
people in my district. I thank him on behalf of the students he teaches 
at UW-M, as well as the broader Milwaukee community.
