Only weeks before he officially takes office as the fifty-sixth Governor of the State of Louisiana, Governor-Elect John Bel Edwards will address the Fall 2015 graduating class of Southern University Baton Rouge, Friday, December 11, 2015, in the University’s F.G. Clark Activity Center, at 10:30 a.m.
Edwards, who was elected to Louisiana’s top office in November 2015 and who will take office January 11, 2016, will deliver the commencement address to nearly 500 Southern University December graduates.
“Southern University is honored to bring Governor-Elect John Bel Edwards and his long-held support of higher education in Louisiana to our campus as we honor our fall graduates,” said SU System President-Chancellor Ray L. Belton. “We look forward to his message for forthcoming SU alumni and to his leadership for our great state.”
