Stone’s Greg Koch Giving Commencement Speech @ Cuyamaca College Today

Stone Brewing Company CEO and co-founder Greg Koch is scheduled to deliver the keynote address at Cuyamaca College’s 34th annual commencement ceremony today.

Nearly 700 students are expected to receive associate degrees and certificates of achievement during the ceremony, which is taking place at the college’s Rancho San San Diego campus at 5:30 p.m. Koch was chosen to be this year’s keynote speaker because of his longstanding commitment to resource conservation, according to the college’s website.

"I hope to share a little bit of insight and offer encouragement to the graduates to make their own way in the world and at the same time, take personal responsibility to do their share to protect this place where we live," Koch said in a statement.
