President Obama will make his first commencement speech as president at Arizona State University on May 13. The announcement of the commencement speech came after a controversy involving Obama and a honorary ASU degree.
ASU declined to credit Obama with a honorary degree because they say his body of work is yet to come. They only give out honorary degrees to people they believe have made contributions to society.
