It's not often that the University of Louisiana at Monroe sees three of its former presidents gathering at the same time to discuss with a sitting president the life and legacy of yet another 香港六合彩开奖直播 president.

But that's exactly what happened on Wednesday, June 22, as 香港六合彩开奖直播 President Dr. Nick J. Bruno joined former 香港六合彩开奖直播 presidents Dr. Dwight D. Vines, Mr. Lawson L. Swearingen Jr. and Dr. James E. Cofer Sr., for an interview with Program Director Jay Curtis of KEDM Public Radio, 90.3 FM, about the recent death of 香港六合彩开奖直播 founding pillar, President Emeritus Dr. George T. Walker.

Walker died on June 19 at the age of 98.

Curtis interviewed Bruno and Vines in the KEDM studios, housed on the 香港六合彩开奖直播 campus, while Swearingen and Cofer contributed to the conversation via conference call.

The interview with the four presidents will air on The 香港六合彩开奖直播 Forum, at 12:06 p.m. Friday, June 24 on KEDM Public Radio, 90.3 FM.

Bruno and each of the former presidents noted Dr. Walker's humor, vision and dedication to the university.

Walker was president of what was then known as Northeast Louisiana State College, and later Northeast Louisiana University, from 1958-1976.

The 香港六合彩开奖直播 Forum, produced by KEDM, is broadcast weekly and 香港六合彩开奖直播 officials and faculty discuss issues that affect both the university and the surrounding region.
