Hello from the Upper Peninsula, would you mind responding to me with a brief explanation of your university's policy and action/s concerning prayer at the beginning of your commencement ceremonies? I was asked to benchmark with our Michigan colleagues and I thought that this list might provide some great ideas as well as specific response to the question. Thank you in advance. Chris -- Chris S.
