142 graduates will walk across the stage during Monmouth College’s 168th Commencement Exercises on Sunday, May 18th beginning at noon on the steps of Wallace Hall. President Dr. Patricia Draves informs the Class of 2025 is graduating with a variety of degrees:

“Our top majors graduating this year are Business Administration, Marketing, Psychology, Political Science, and of course our Elementary Education. We are excited about all of them and the number of students that have secured positions already. There is a little calmer than a normal senior class that don’t have a job yet, that is just not the case. They are going to graduate school all over the world. They are doing great things.”

1972 Monmouth College graduate Lon Helton, who is the longtime host of Country Countdown USA, will deliver the Commencement address on Sunday. Additionally, Class of 2025 graduate Lea Selquist will address her graduating class as the recipient of the Abraham Lincoln Civic Engagement Award.
