Dear Emory Families, Commencement is almost here and with it comes celebration and hope for our future. This year’s commencement speaker, Michael Dubin (01C), is an Emory alumnus. His fraternity brothers tell me he was the featured speaker during their fraternity recruitment. I like to think that he honed his remarkable presentation skills right here at Emory. With the right support from friends and loved ones, who knows where it may lead? Let’s always encourage our students to try new skills and challenge themselves both at Emory and beyond!

Please remember, if you have any questions, suggestions, or inquiries, please email: [email protected]. I am happy to help.
