#JSUGrad17 - Participants among Jackson State University’s nearly 800 fall commencement graduates and undergraduates aimed to heed advice from keynote speaker the Rev. Dr. Kevin R. Murriel to begin working immediately on improving the quality of life for themselves and others. Murriel, a 2008 alum of JSU, leads a congregation of more than 5,000 as senior pastor of Cascade United Methodist Church in Atlanta. He said, “The biggest mistake you can make after getting a degree is living like you’re still getting one.” Read more about the 2017 Fall Commencement in the JSU Newsroom: jsumsnews.com.
