I just realized that today is the day that Vice President Cheney speaks at BYU's commencement. Here is the outline for events surrounding commencement. I don't know what to think about the last listing - the alternative commencement ... but its pretty awesome that Ralph Nadar came to Orem/Provo. Rockin. I love that the BYU Dems are by the "Enter to Learn - Go Forth to Serve" sign. That is definitely what BYU is all about. I am glad to see some Cougs stepping up and I am interested to hear what Cheney says at commencement.
Commencement Happenings
Noon to 2 p.m. BYU College Democrats demonstrate at 1230 North and 150 East around the "Enter to Learn - Go Forth to Serve" sign on campus.
Noon to 2:30 p.m. Pro-Cheney ralliers demonstrate on the lawn of the Provo City Library, at 500 N. University Ave.
Noon to 6 p.m. Veterans for Peace will hold a vigil protesting the war on the southwest corner of 1230 North and Canyon Road.
7 p.m. Alternative Commencement featuring former presidential candidate Ralph Nader, former Amnesty International director Jack Healy, and former U.S. Senate candidate Pete Ashdown at the McKay Events Center on the campus of Utah Valley State College in Orem.
This list came from this article in the Salt Lake Tribune. More to come.
