    CONGRATULATING PROFESSORS BARBARA McFARLAND AND MICHAEL WHITEMAN

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. JOE CUNNINGHAM

                           of south carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, July 25, 2019

  Mr. CUNNINGHAM. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate 
Professors Barbara McFarland and Michael Whiteman as they step down 
from the faculty at the Chase College of Law at Northern Kentucky 
University. Their tenure has brought Chase bigger ideas, brighter days, 
and better futures for any student lucky enough to sit in their 
classrooms.
  One of Professor McFarland's greatest gifts is to provide every 
student she encounters with the resources and encouragement to achieve 
their best work--in law school and beyond. After 15 years at Chase, she 
is retiring to continue her work inspiring young minds, this time with 
young, at-risk children.
  I took a short quiz to celebrate Professor Whiteman's retirement and 
I scored a 6/10, which was pretty similar to some of my scores in his 
class! After 17 successful years at Chase, Professor Whiteman is headed 
off to a law school down the road. Professor Whiteman has been 
described by his colleagues as one of the most genuine and kind-hearted 
people they have ever met, and I truly could not agree any more.
  I know firsthand that Professors McFarland and Whiteman's passion for 
supporting a student's success can be the definitive factor between 
giving up and getting a degree, and I am so thankful for the impact 
they had on my educational and personal development. Professors 
McFarland and Whiteman are about to begin new journeys for themselves, 
but they can rest assured that their legacies will live on in the Chase 
Law School community. I thank them for all they have done and wish them 
good luck in all future endeavors.
