                      TRIBUTE TO DR. FRANK WISEMAN

 Mr. BUNNING. Mr. President, today I pay tribute to Dr. Frank 
Wiseman, who is the recipient of the 2006 U.S. Professor of the Year 
Award for the State of Kentucky. This is a prestigious program that 
honors and awards the most influential undergraduate instructors in the 
country.
  Since 1981, the U.S. Professors of the Year program has saluted 
exceptional professors who have demonstrated a heightened dedication to 
teaching, commitment to students, and creative instructional techniques 
and methods. The program is sponsored by the Council for the 
Advancement and Support of Education which collaborates with multiple 
higher-education associations to direct and promote the program.
  As a professor of chemistry at Georgetown College in Georgetown, KY, 
Dr. Wiseman uses innovative teaching methods to help his students 
understand the complexities of chemistry, a subject many find 
challenging. He has developed games and animation exercises as well as 
a unique grading system to address the diverse needs of his students. 
By introducing and applying creative educating tactics along with 
standard science research methods to assist his students, Dr. Wiseman 
personifies everything an educator should strive for in their career.
  I now ask my fellow colleagues to join me in thanking Dr. Wiseman for 
his dedication and commitment to the education of America's future. In 
order for our society to continue to advance in the right direction, we 
must have professors like Dr. Wiseman in our institutions of higher 
learning, in our communities, and in our lives. He is Kentucky at its 
finest.
