U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff has been named keynote speaker for Emory University’s Class Day, a student-organized event for students receiving bachelor’s degrees at this year’s Commencement.
The program will be held virtually Thursday, May 14, at 6:30 p.m. on the Emory Commencement website.
“The Class Day committee is thrilled to welcome Sen. Jon Ossoff to campus for Class Day 2021,” says Liz Greene, a senior political science and media studies major from Charlotte, North Carolina. “During the landmark 2021 Georgia Senate run-offs, Emory students practiced a high level of civic engagement through campaigning, activism and voter drives. Ossoff’s belief in young people as change makers is especially relevant as members of the Class of 2021 leave Emory and go on to impact new communities. We’re incredibly excited to hear his wisdom and advice to the parting class.”
