ROSA L. DeLAURO of connecticut in the house of representatives Thursday, November 12, 1998 Ms. DeLAURO. Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to rise to honor the Southern Connecticut State University Chapter of Phi Delta Kappa on their 25th anniversary. Phi Delta Kappa members provide a variety of services to promote and improve education in our community. Members of this successful international organization are Connecticut educators who are continually active in the education arena and dedicated to the ideals of service, research, and leadership. They are teachers, principals, administrators and superintendents--people who are with kids every day, who have given their all to ensuring that our children have the best start in life. On October 3, 1973, one hundred and twenty charter members were initiated into the newly formed chapter of Phi Delta Kappa at Southern Connecticut State University. Twenty-five years later, I am proud to say, this chapter has grown to nearly 500 members strong. It is these individuals, and all that they contribute, which make the Connecticut school system a success. Membership in this fraternity is recognition of the contributions to education made by our educators. I commend the members of the Southern Connecticut State University Chapter for all the work they have done in order to guarantee that our children will develop the skills they will need to build a successful future. On behalf of the parents, students, and the residents of Connecticut, I thank you for your good work. It is for 25 years of dedicated and distinguished service of all members of the Southern Connecticut State University Chapter of Phi Delta Kappa that I am proud to stand and recognize their achievements today. ____________________ |
