The 10th anniversary edition of Meliora Weekend, the annual on-campus celebration of Reunion, Family Weekend, and Homecoming, will feature a keynote address by President Bill Clinton, the founder of the William J. Clinton Foundation.

The 42nd president of the United States, he’s the latest prominent policymaker to deliver the keynote address. Previous speakers have included CNN medical correspondent Sanjay Gupta, U.S. Secretary of Energy Steven Chu ’70, ’98 (Honorary), journalist Anderson Cooper, and retired general and U.S. statesman Colin Powell. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton delivered the keynote in 2002, when she was a U.S. senator.

More and than 6,000 alumni, students, faculty, family members, and guests typically attend the four days of lectures, performances, seminars, and social gatherings held on Rochester’s campuses each fall.
