  Mr. DAVIS of Kentucky. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
achievements of Gateway Community and Technical College.
  On December 9, 2008, Gateway Community and Technical College attained 
Full Regional Accreditation by the Commission on Colleges of the 
Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) as a Comprehensive 
Community and Technical College.
  With this regional accreditation, Gateway Community and Technical 
College has attained a longstanding goal of becoming a comprehensive 
institution.
  Over the years, Gateway has distinguished itself through its 
dedication to the education and workforce development needs of Northern 
Kentuckians. The institution has maintained a clear mission to higher 
education and offers the resources, programs and services to accomplish 
and sustain that mission. The students and faculty deserve recognition 
for their diligent multi-year efforts that have resulted in the 
school's recent accreditation.
  I applaud Gateway's commitment to excellence in education and their 
contributions to Kentucky communities. Madam Speaker, please join me in 
congratulating this Kentucky institution on their recent SACS 
accreditation.
