          RECOGNIZING THE PAMELA SILVA CONDE SCHOLARSHIP FUND

  (Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize an 
outstanding south Floridian and her initiative, the Pamela Silva Conde 
Scholarship.
  Having graduated from my alma mater, Florida International 
University, with a degree in broadcast journalism and a master's degree 
in business, Pamela understands the importance of higher education.
  While Pamela calls Miami home, her work as a six-time Emmy Award-
winning journalist has taken her all over the world. With her success, 
Pamela has made it a point to be civic-minded and engaged in our 
community, primarily on children and college education issues.
  Always wanting to do more, Pamela founded the Pamela Silva Conde 
Scholarship, which focuses on assisting first-generation, low-income 
business or journalism majors and help them attend college.
  Today I ask my Congressional colleagues to join me in honoring Pamela 
Silva Conde, and thank her for all that she has done and will continue 
to do for students in our south Florida community.
