Outgoing Vice President Leni Robredo has been tapped by the Ateneo De Manila University to speak on the commencement exercises of the Class of 2022 in August, the university announced Thursday.
According to the memo from the university, Robredo will be speaking to the graduates of ADMU's Loyola Schools on August 27 at the Ateneo Junior High Covered Courts.
"We hope that our students will be inspired by Vice President Robredo’s example of courage, hope, and love for the nation," Dr. Maria Luz Vilches, vice president of the Loyola Schools, said.
The August commencement rites will be the first in-person graduation event for Ateneo after two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Robredo last visited the ADMU campus in Quezon City on May 14 following her thanksgiving event after losing to President-elect Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. in the May 9 elections.
