<p><font style="font-size: 20px;" face="Rockwell">A select group of students will be invited to attend a Meet & Greet with Laverne Cox, the Spring 2017 William L. Mayo Prestigious Speaker while also interacting with fellow students and university administrators
and given reserved seating for the Formal Address. Fully completed applications must be submitted via this Link no later than 5:00 pm on Tuesday, January 31st, 2017. Notifications of invitations will be sent out Thursday, February 2nd, 2017, via email.</font></p>
<p><font style="font-size: 20px;" face="Rockwell">Laverne Cox explores how the intersections of race, class, and gender uniquely affect the lives of trans women of color. Laverne draws from her own personal narrative to share how she has been able to navigate
the world and all it's challenges. From growing up in Mobile, Alabama, raised by a single mother in a Christian family, to attending college in New York City to pursue a career as an actress, to finally finding the courage to step into the womanhood she always
knew at heart was her destiny, Cox tells the story of the unique challenges along her journey to womanhood, professional achievement, self-acceptance, and love. </font></p>
