MORGAN STATE UNIVERSITY: Student Achievement and Political Activism Highlighted Morgan’s Sixth December Commencement

College5

Morgan State University issued the following announcement on Dec. 14.

A buoyant crowd shrugged off dreary weather to celebrate the sixth December Commencement Exercises of Morgan State University today, in MSU’s Talmadge L. Hill Field House. The 400-plus bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral degree candidates heard a direct appeal for civic activism from Elizabeth Warren, senior U.S. senator from Massachusetts, who delivered the Commencement address. Sen. Warren; Morgan graduate and recently retired Morgan senior administrator Clara I. Adams, Ph.D.; and Eugene M. DeLoatch, Ph.D., recently retired founding dean of Morgan’s Clarence M. Mitchell Jr. School of Engineering, received honorary Doctor of Laws degrees during the ceremony.

As the soon-to-be graduates assembled on the second floor of the University Student Center and waited to file into the Field House to receive their baccalaureates, most were focused on their future careers. Some, like political science major Laco Johnson III, from Washington, D.C., also turned their thoughts to the Commencement speaker.
