CONGRATULATIONS TO THE CLASS OF 2011!

On Monday, May 23, Lehigh University held its 143^rd Commencement Exercises. Of the 1,777 Lehigh degrees conferred at the ceremony, 504 were from the College of Business and Economics. We welcome 337 undergraduates and 167 graduate students as the newest additions to our worldwide alumni network. It is with great pride that we usher in the next generation of business leaders.

Ellen Kullman, DuPont Chair and CEO, who was named one of the most powerful women in the country by both Forbes and Fortune magazines, delivered the commencement address. She shared her thoughts on the importance of collaboration and lifelong learning. Her message provided an encouraging and inspirational send-off to our graduates.

Please join me in congratulating our new Lehigh alumni.
