C-SPAN CEO, Georgetown Law Alum to Deliver McCourt School Commencement Address

Georgetown University’s McCourt School of Public Policy announced that the CEO of C-SPAN, who is also a Georgetown Law alumnus, will deliver the McCourt School commencement address at the university’s graduation ceremony. The announcement was posted by the McCourt School and identifies the speaker by role and alumni status.

The McCourt School said the address will take place as part of its commencement events for graduating students of the public policy program. The school did not attach a speech title or a full agenda in its announcement; the posting highlights the speaker’s connection to both Georgetown Law and C-SPAN.

C-SPAN is a public affairs media network headquartered

C-SPAN is a public affairs media network headquartered in Washington, and the McCourt School is one of the city’s leading graduate policy programs. Bringing a senior media executive with local institutional ties to the podium follows a long Washington tradition of public affairs figures speaking at university ceremonies, linking the city’s professional networks with campus life.

The McCourt School’s notice serves as the primary source for the invitation and the speaker’s affiliation; the school routinely names prominent alumni and public figures as commencement speakers to connect graduating policy students with practitioners in government, media, and nonprofits.
