                       Wednesday, April 14, 2010

  Mr. ADERHOLT. Madam Speaker, I would like to congratulate the 
University of Alabama Students In Free Enterprise Team (UA-SIFE) for 
winning their fourth consecutive Regional Championship.
  The UA-SIFE team was the League 9 Champion and will be traveling to 
Minneapolis, MN on May 10-13 to compete in National Finals.
  Founded in 2005, the UA-SIFE team has grown from 5 members to 64 
active members.
  Since its inception UA-SIFE. has won Rookie of the Year, First Runner 
Up, Second Runner Up at National's and four consecutive Regional 
Championships.
  The University of Alabama has always upheld the highest standards of 
excellence in all its endeavors, and this team of outstanding student 
leaders is no exception.
  During these tough economic times, I am encouraged that students 
would give their time and talent to teach others the principles of free 
enterprise.
  I commend the leadership of Clinical Professor and Sam Walton Fellow 
David Ford on his successful career not only with the University of 
Alabama but also as a soldier and a business leader, and I look forward 
to the continuation of a tradition of solid and consistent performance 
in both academics and free enterprise.
  Madam Speaker, I congratulate each member of this dedicated SIFE 
team, the alumni and the University of Alabama for their commitment to 
achieving their fourth consecutive championship.
  Good luck at the Nationals.
