Ms. WILSON of Florida. Mr. Speaker, from the 24th District of the great state of Florida, I rise today to congratulate Nova Southeastern University on its 50th anniversary and for a half century of service to our students, community and state. I include in the Record the following proclamation:
Whereas, Nova Southeastern University was founded as Nova
University of Advanced Technology on December 4, 1964, in
Fort Lauderdale, Florida;
Whereas, in 1994, Nova University merged with Southeastern
University of Health and Sciences to form Nova Southeastern
University;
Whereas, today, Nova Southeastern University is the largest
independent institution of higher education in the
southeastern United States and the ninth largest independent,
not-for-profit institution of higher education nationally;
Whereas, Nova Southeastern University has graduated more
than 162,000 students who have become professionals in such
areas as health care, education, law, business, computer
sciences, mental and social sciences;
Whereas, Nova Southeastern University employs more than
4,000 people, and has an economic impact of $2.6 billion, in
Florida; and
Now, therefore, be it resolved that I, Frederica S. Wilson,
a Member of the United States House of Representatives,
representing the 24th Congressional District of Florida,
congratulate Nova Southeastern University on its 50th
Anniversary and commend it for its contributions to education
and for its commitment to our community, state and our
country.
