Last spring, the college temporarily changed the process for choosing a student Commencement speaker, selecting Student Government Association (SGA) President Brandon Straker ’25 to deliver a speech without the routine input of a student and staff-led committee.

For the upcoming Feb Commencement ceremony on Jan. 31, the process has returned to an open call for graduates to submit recorded videos of their speeches for consideration.

Sometimes he walks with a faculty or staff member, engaged in conversation. Other times he’s alone, thinking. He is still searching for a favorite campus tree, he said. Like any other first year, Baucom has time.
