                    RECOGNIZING YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. KEVIN CRAMER

                            of north dakota

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 3, 2016

  Mr. CRAMER. Mr. Speaker, North Dakota's research universities are 
nurturing bright students in a variety of programs that encourage them 
to learn, grow, innovate and even change the world.
  Today, I congratulate North Dakota State University student Andrew 
Dalman, a graduate student in the mechanical engineering program. He 
has been recognized by the U.S. Society of Manufacturing Engineering as 
one of the ``30 under 30 Brightest Manufacturing Engineers.'' And 
again, Forbes magazine has put Andrew on its list of ``30 Under 30 in 
Manufacturing and Engineering in 2016.''
  Andy has helped develop an affordable 3D-printed prosthetic arm for 
children. He was on an NDSU team designing a new shape and type of 
ceramic dental implant. Now he is focusing on an advanced bone 
technology project to make medical testing cheaper, safer and more 
ethical.
  The talents of young entrepreneurs and innovators like Andy bring 
hope and promise to our world as they focus their bright minds on some 
of the greatest challenges and opportunities facing us today. This is 
the highest calling of our state's higher education system, especially 
our outstanding research universities, and I commend all who are part 
of it.
