Mrs. KIM of California. Mr. Speaker, I rise to thank Dr. Stephen Stambough and Dr. Valerie O'Regan upon their retirement from Cal State Fullerton after years of dedicated service as political science professors.

Drs. Stambough and O'Regan led the Cal State DC Scholars program, offering students interested in politics and government the unique opportunity to live and learn in Washington, D.C.

Dr. Stambough was the founding director of this program in 2006. More than 650 students have since participated in this program. Dr. O'Regan personally recruited one-third of the students.

Their important work has inspired many, including my own daughter, Kelly, who attended Cal State Fullerton and was a Cal State DC Scholar.

I thank them both for their tireless work to teach the next generation of public servants and leaders, and I wish them both the best in their retirement.
