MARGARET THATCHER TO SPEAK AT W&M COMMENCEMENT

Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher will be the speaker at this year's commencement ceremony at the College of William and Mary, college officials announced Friday.

Thatcher, the college's current chancellor, gave a speech at last year's Charter Day ceremony. Thatcher also has been on campus to attend meetings of the college's board of visitors.

The May 11 commencement ceremony, scheduled for 1 p.m. in William and Mary Hall, is open to college graduates and their parents. Tickets are not available to the public.

The May 10 baccalaureate speaker will be Constantine Nicholas Dombalis, dean of the Greek Orthodox Cathedral of Virginia.
