while raising at least one child. This year is the tenth anniversary of 
the creation of the Salute to Mothers Scholarship, and it has raised 
over 120,000 dollars to date.
  This scholarship is vital to providing mothers with greater career 
opportunities, and encouraging women to participate in our workforce. 
It is only available to mothers who possess a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or 
better, and are enrolled in at least six credits for the upcoming 
semester. I appreciate the philanthropy that recognizes the struggles 
of balancing family and school, and thank Betty Tsai for her work to 
that end.
