Rudy Giuliani is Convocation Speaker

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani will speak at senior convocation this year.

The 66 year-old Brooklyn native served as NYC Mayor from 1994 to 2001, when he received acclaim from New Yorkers and Americans as a whole for his leadership in the wake of September 11. In 2008, he made a short-lived run for the Republican presidential candidacy.

Among his role as mayor he’s also known as a previous recipient of Time Magazine’s Person of the Year, a guest on Seinfeld, and a man with a characteristic lisp.

Giuliani, a moderate Republican who has traversed political party affiliations, will likely bring a different tone than Pelosi, who spoke for the class of 2010.
