GED graduates will march at their graduation ceremony at 2 p.m. today in the "Swede" Erickson Thunderbird Gymnasium on the Casper College campus.

Casper College addictionology instructor Lesley Travers will be the guest speaker.

"Because some of our students have known someone who had an addiction, or have been personally affected by an addiction, the staff here felt that Dr. Travers could relate to our students' backgrounds," said Kelsee Miller, ABE/GED instructor in a school release.

"Dr. Travers intends to provide a speech that will keep us all on our toes, literally, and hopes that audience members will walk away with a new sense of enthusiasm," Miller said.

The general equivalency diploma ceremony is free and open to the public. A reception will follow the ceremony.
