  Ms. MATSUI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 100th 
Anniversary of Sacramento City College. As the Sacramento region 
celebrates one of its most valued educational establishments, I ask all 
my colleagues to join me in honoring this historical institution in 
Sacramento.
  I know first-hand the positive impact that Sacramento City College 
has had on our community. I have long been a supporter of this 
distinguished college and the many programs it provides for its 
students and the surrounding community. Over the years, Sacramento City 
College has remained steadfast in its mission to create a learning 
community that celebrates diversity, nurtures personal growth, and 
inspires academic and economic leadership. At the same time, the 
college has constantly progressed and improved its academic offerings 
to ensure that its students have access to a wide range of 
opportunities and services to advance their success.
  Founded in 1916 as part of Sacramento High School, Sacramento City 
College is the seventh oldest community college in California. In 1964, 
the college joined the Los Rios Community College District. Today, 
Sacramento City College provides over 22,000 students a year with 
exceptional higher learning opportunities through its many academic and 
vocational programs. Sacramento City College is committed to fostering 
a diverse learning community and this commitment is reflected in its 
investments in students, faculty, and staff.
  Mr. Speaker, as Sacramento City College celebrates its centennial 
anniversary with a Centennial Gala, I ask all my colleagues to join me 
in honoring this staple of the Sacramento community for all it has 
provided to our region over the last 100 years.
