On June 15, White House Cabinet Secretary Christopher Lu will give the commencement address at North Seattle Community College (NSCC)’s 42nd commencement ceremony.
Lu is President Obama’s primary liaison to the cabinet departments and agencies, helping to coordinate policy and communications strategy. Lu also serves as co-chair of the White House Initiative on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.
This will be Lu’s second time speaking at NCSS. Lu first spoke at NCSS at the White House Summit on Sustainable Growth last July.
“We are very pleased to welcome Chris Lu back to campus and to have the commitment and dedication of our graduates acknowledged with an official visit by a representative of the president,” said NSCC President Mark Mitsui.
Between 250 and 300 graduates will be receiving degrees at the ceremony. The ceremony will be held outside in the courtyard on NCSS’ campus at 6:00 pm. (end)
