BAKARI SELLERS TO DELIVER COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS

Jefferson City, MO Bakari Sellers, who made history in 2006 as the youngest African American elected official in the country, will deliver the Commencement Address at Lincoln University on Saturday, May 11.  Sellers will address the Class of 2019 at 10 a.m. at Dwight T. Reed Stadium.
