BETHANY U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin told Bethany College graduates it will be up to their generation to rise above the divisive discourse found online and stop the political divide in the nation.
Meanwhile, Wheeling native Olivia Archer and Tatum Dyar of Indiana on Saturday were named recipients of Bethany’s Oreon E. Scott Award, which recognizes the students with the highest academic standing in the graduating class.
Manchin, D-West Virginia, served as guest speaker for the 181st commencement exercises at Bethany College.
He told the graduates he was present in the Senate chamber on Jan. 6 when protesters breached the Capitol and attempted to halt the Senate during the official count of electoral college votes.
