I congratulate the graduating class of City College, a 4-year, private institution with three Florida campuses, including one in my hometown of South Miami. City College was established in Kentucky more than 70 years ago as a branch of a junior business college. Today it provides degrees in 12 areas of study and remains committed to the quality of education in an atmosphere of personalized instruction. City College's motto remains ``Your job tomorrow is our job today,'' and it can be your job tomorrow, and even improve it. The dedicated faculty at City College ensures academic preparedness and provides career assistance, as well as training for a full life and a successful career. On July 19, just a few days from today, City College will proudly graduate approximately 350 students, all of whom are undoubtedly excited to brave today's working world. As they do, I wish each and every one of them the best for triumphant success, and I ask that my colleagues also wish them a hearty congratulations with their motto, ``Your job tomorrow is our job today.''
