Class of 2026 Commencement Highlights
2027 Commencement Speaker
Mike Pence was born in Columbus, Indiana, on June 7, 1959, into a family that epitomized the American Dream, instilling in him values of hard work, faith, and family. After graduating from Hanover College and Indiana University School of Law, he embarked on a multifaceted career, including law practice, hosting a talk show, serving as a Congressman for six terms, and championing limited government and fiscal responsibility.
Pence was then elected the 50th Governor of Indiana, focusing on tax cuts, job creation, education reform, and infrastructure investment while maintaining fiscal responsibility. His accomplishments in Indiana led to his selection as the 48th Vice President of the United States.
Pence’s conservative philosophy, inspired by Ronald Reagan, led to his founding of Advancing American Freedom, which continues to advocate for faith, family, and liberty as foundational American values.
