Political Quotes

“I rise today to honor the Center for Excellence in Education, CEE, for launching the first National Lab Skills Symposium. As an honorary member of the board of trustees for the center, I have witnessed firsthand the important work CEE had undertaken, and I could not be more impressed and excited about its newest endeavor. Improving science education is an essential investment toward the future of our Nation and world. Since it was founded in 1983 by Joann DiGennaro and the late ADM H.G. Rickover, CEE has been an influential leader in championing efforts to provide science, technology, engineering, and mathematics initiatives for this Nation's top achieving students. With over 25 years of experience as a leader in STEM academic programs for high school students, CEE understands exactly what it takes to prepare future innovators for the 21st century; and it is prepared to take further steps to ensure that students develop the skills they need.”
