Emmanuel University is thrilled to celebrate our Spring 2024 graduates on Saturday, May 4^th at 10:30AM in the John W. Swails Center. Approximately 130 graduates will be receiving their degrees.

Mr. Greg Beadles, President of the Atlanta Falcons will serve as this year’s Commencement Speaker.

Beadles began his career with the Falcons as an intern after earning a bachelor’s degree from Louisiana State University and master’s degree from Georgia State University. He began his 29^th year (2023) with the club being named the president of the team. In his almost three decades with the organization, Beadles has held multiple roles with the Falcons and AMBSE, including being part of the finance team that orchestrated the transfer of ownership of the Falcons from the Rankin Smith family to Arthur M. Blank in 2001.

Outside of his professional roles, Beadles is a board member of the College Football Hall of Fame; is co-founding board chair of both the Oak Hill Classical School in Dacula, Ga. and the Arete Scholars Fund, a non-profit that has awarded academic scholarships to 15,000 low-income children since 2010. Beadles, his wife Jill, and their children (Ella, Grant, Evie, and Hudson) reside in metro Atlanta.

The ceremony will be live-streamed HERE. Congratulations, Class of 2024!
