Tom Brokaw Speaks at Faulkner Benefit

 A prominent national news anchor was in Montgomery.
Tom Brokaw was the featured speaker at Faulkner University’s annual fundraiser.Â
It was a sell out crowd, thousands of people were in attendance.
Â
Brokaw spent more than two decades as the anchor for NBC’s Nightly News. He spoke for about 45 minutes and his speach centered around the greatest generation, a term coined by Brokaw describing the people during World War Two.Â
Â
Haley Scott, a Faulkner Alum said, “Such a big deal for the University because he is such a good influence on our students and I know that he can really look up to him and his success and really see someone they can aspire to be and I think that’s important for them.”
Proceeds primarily benefit student scholarships at Faulkner.Â
