Astronaut Jeffrey Williams will speak at Grove City College’s commencement this year.
Williams has taken four flights to space and holds the NASA record for the longest time in space for an American man- 534 days. He has done three tours of duty on the international space station, spending months at a time “off world.”
“Grove City College will be greatly blessed to have a man of Col. Williams’ character and accomplishments address the graduating class. After hundreds of days in space and dozens of hours of courageous space walks, he has a unique perspective on God’s amazing creation that will expand our graduates’ imagination and determination in the service of Christ in this world,” Grove City College President Paul J. McNulty ’80 said.
Grove City College’s commencement will be held on Saturday, May 19.
