Whereas the Commission on Independent Colleges and Universities is a voluntary 
        consortium of more than 100 nonprofit, private institutions of higher 
        education located in New York;
Whereas the Commission on Independent Colleges and Universities was founded in

        institutions of higher education and to advance higher education public 
        policy;
Whereas the Commission on Independent Colleges and Universities represents 109 
        member campuses with more than 450,000 enrolled students, including 
        300,000 residents of New York;
Whereas the Commission on Independent Colleges and Universities produces several 
        informative publications for students, parents, and schools about member 
        colleges and universities, college admissions, and financial aid;
Whereas the Commission on Independent Colleges and Universities is one of the 
        largest organizations of independent sector institutions of higher 
        education in the world; and
Whereas the member institutions of the Commission on Independent Colleges and 
        Universities provide access to high-quality education and opportunity 
        for hundreds of thousands of students: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That Congress recognizes the Commission on Independent Colleges and 
Universities for 50 years of service and contributions to higher 
education and higher education public policy.
