Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Ms. CRAIG. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Rasmussen University on their 125th anniversary.

Founded in St. Paul, Minnesota, on September 1, 1900, Rasmussen University has spent 125 years building a powerful legacy of opportunity. What began as a small business school has grown into a regionally and nationally recognized institution committed to career- focused education that transforms lives and strengthens communities.

Rasmussen has long served students who are often underrepresented, underserved, or overlooked by traditional higher education--providing the support, flexibility, and access they need to pursue a brighter future. Over the last 125 years, they've helped students prepare for careers that truly matter in health care, business, public service and beyond.

I am proud to represent Rasmussen's Eagan campus, recognized as a national leader in nursing education. They are a Minnesota staple with other locations in Bloomington, Eagan, Brooklyn Park, Mankato, St. Cloud, and Moorhead.

Rasmussen University serves more than 3,000 currently enrolled Minnesotans and has proudly graduated over 28,000 students from across the state.

I congratulate Rasmussen University and I look forward to their continued success.
