President to speak to Hoyas

Georgetown bound

Already in his three months in office he’s created turmoil for the University of Notre Dame and Arizona State University, but that hasn’t stopped President Barack Obama from visiting colleges—he is set to speak at Georgetown University Tuesday morning.

Perhaps testing the waters of speaking at a Catholic university, Obama will give a speech on the economy to students at 11:30 a.m in Gaston Hall on the school’s campus, states an email sent out this morning by the school. The President will discuss the different steps taken by his administration to confront the economic crisis while also addressing the work that still needs to be done. The subject of the economy shoud keep him out of trouble with the Jesuits.

Registration to attend is being done via lottery through the school.  This morning the website was inaccessible due to the high demand.

This will be the first time Obama has spoken at a local area college since becoming President.
