Hats off to the more than 500 candidates for December graduation at Emporia State University. Soojin Bae of Kyung sang-buk do, South Korea, graduated with a B.S. in Business degree in Management with minors in Information Systems and Marketing .

Commencement speakers included Kenny Wilk, chair of the Kansas Board of Regents, who encouraged all graduates to consider giving back through public service of some kind. Dr. Charles Brown, professor of philosophy and the 2014 Roe R. Cross Distinguished Professor, urged graduates at the baccalaureate ceremony to consider what it means to be an Emporia State Hornet.

"You will forever be Emporia State University graduates and alumni," Brown said. "I only hope that what being a Hornet means to you is something that you will happily and wisely discover for the rest of your lives."
