CONGRATULATING JEFF RANKIN FOR RECEIVING THE DISTINGUISHED SERVICE
AWARD BY MONMOUTH COLLEGE
______
HON. CHERI BUSTOS
of illinois
in the house of representatives
Wednesday, October 27, 2021
Mrs. BUSTOS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Jeff Rankin, who is this year's recipient of the Distinguished Service Award by Monmouth College.
Mr. Rankin has always been drawn to Monmouth College, as his father played football for Monmouth. Further, his twin brother attended the institution and is now its Director of Theater. A strong affinity for Monmouth College is a part of the fabric of his family, which is why Mr. Rankin has truly been dedicated to sharing the story of Monmouth with the world for nearly his entire life. From 1992 until 2015, Mr. Rankin was Director of Communications for the College, where he served as an ambassador and one of its strongest advocates. He now assists the institution in a new position as the College's historian. Mr. Rankin's contributions to advancing the rapid progress of Monmouth College have been significant and invaluable.
It is because of passionate and leaders such as Jeff Rankin that I am especially proud to serve Illinois' 17th Congressional District. Madam Speaker, I would like to, again, formally congratulate Jeff Rankin on receiving the Distinguished Service Award and thank him for his service to the Monmouth community.
