Jacksonville State University’s 2006 Spring commencement will be held Friday, April 28 at 6:30 p.m. in Paul Snow Stadium.

Bobby Kennamer, a former JSU trustee whose term recently expired, is the commencement speaker. Among the highlights of Kennamer’s time on the board were the adoption of a modernized master plan, the selection of an architectural style for the campus, and the creation of an endowment that is now providing more than $1 million in supplemental funds annually.

The Board of Trustees recently named Kennamer Trustee Emeritus. Dr. William Meehan, JSU’s eleventh president, will be conferring the honorary Doctor of Humane Letters on Kennamer at commencement.

There will be ample seating at the Stadium for all who wish to attend.

In the event the weather prevents an outdoor rehearsal or exercise, the commencement activity will be held in the Mathews Coliseum. Graduates must assemble at 10:00 a.m. in the Mathews Coliseum for rehearsal. The commencement will remain at 6:30 p.m. with the location changed to the Mathews Coliseum

Leone Cole Auditorium will be available for additional seating to view the ceremony on a large screen.

Local radio stations and campus security will announce any decision to locate the commencement activity in the Mathews Coliseum should weather become a factor. Call the Graduation Hotline, 782-8197, for changes in the rehearsal or ceremony location.

Family and friends can view the graduation ceremonies live from their home computers. There will be a link available on the JSU website: www.jsu.edu. The ceremonies will also be archived for two weeks after commencement.

Commencement will be televised live on WJXS-TV 24 (local Cable One Channel 9).
