LOGAN, Utah (AP) -- Actor Danny Glover will deliver the commencement address at Utah State University's graduation ceremony this spring.
Administrators say Glover will also receive an honorary doctorate during the ceremony on May 8.
USU President Stan L. Albrecht says he's thrilled about the speech, noting that it's not Glover's first time at the school.
Glover came several years ago and spoke about the poet Langston Hughes.
The actor is also in the process of developing a film about USU football player Lionel Aldridge, who had a successful career in the National Football League but also struggled with mental illness.
