Jon Huntsman Announced as End-of-the-Year Speaker

<p>Considering the fact that this forum seems to be slower than usual, I thought this would be a nice addition:</p>

<p>Today, the Kennedy Political Union, the student-run political lecture series organization, announced that Jon Huntsman will be speaking at AU as the end-of-the-year speaker on Wednesday, April 18th. Tickets are not required. More information can be found on their Facebook page: <a href=“https://www.facebook.com/kennedypoliticalunion[/url]”>https://www.facebook.com/kennedypoliticalunion</a></p>

  • President Bill Clinton - received Wonk of the Year Award
  • John Legend (popular singer, activist, philanthropist)
  • Angela Davis (feminist, activist)
  • Rick Perry (presidential candidate, Governor of Texas)
  • John King (CNN host of John King, USA)
