                      HONORING DR. RICHARD HELTON

  (Mr. BUCSHON asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BUCSHON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor a fellow Hoosier, Dr. 
Richard Helton, the retiring president of Vincennes University.
  Few have exemplified the university's timeless motto, ``Learn in 
order to serve,'' more clearly than Dr. Helton. Under his dynamic 
leadership, this 214-year-old institution founded by our ninth 
President, William Henry Harrison, has become a cutting-edge center for 
career and technical education that offers students tangible, 
employable skills and an opportunity for lifelong growth.
  Throughout his career, Dr. Helton has maintained a commitment to 
public education that has positively impacted the lives of countless 
students. Our State has benefited greatly from his vision and will 
forever be indebted for his service.
  Best wishes to Dick and Cindy Helton in the future ahead.
