“I rise today to honor Berry College, a well respected and prestigious university located in Mount Berry, Georgia. Leisure and Travel ranked Berry College as the second-most beautiful campus in America. The institution is breathtakingly picturesque, offering stunning views of lakes, fields, forests, and mountains. Not only is it one of the most beautiful, but it is reportedly the world's largest as well, encompassing nearly 27,000 acres and offering 88 miles of trails. Beyond its attractive exterior, Berry College offers state-of-the-art education to over 2,000 undergraduates and nearly 200 graduate students. As a private, nonprofit college, Berry consistently gives back to Georgia and the United States through generous contributions to student scholarships, academic resources, classroom technology, the arts, athletics, and high-quality facilities. Berry College exhibits the best of private education, providing students with limitless opportunities to pursue their academic and professional aspirations. Mr. Speaker, I congratulate Berry College for elevating the standard of higher education in Georgia.”
