“We are pleased that Stu Rothenberg will address the members and special friends of Delta Council at this year’s meeting,” said Delta Council President Bill Kennedy. “I anticipate his keynote address to be both informative and insightful.”

In addition to Rothenberg’s newsletter and bi-weekly Roll Call columns, he often contributes opinion editorials to The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, The New York Times, and The Orlando Sentinel.

His political insights have made him a respected news anchor, and he has appeared on NBC’s Meet the Press, ABC’s This Week and Nightline, and The McLaughlin Group. Rothenburg also served as a political analyst for CBS News in 2006, and prior to that, he served over ten years as a CNN pundit, which included an on-air, election-night-analysis.

“For the last few years, Stu has spoken to “Delta 1000” members prior to the Annual Meeting, and his political insight and unbiased observations were extremely well-received,” Kennedy said. “With one of the most important election cycles in modern American history about to unfold, we felt like it was timely to have Stu address all of the members and guests of Delta Council.”

Rothenberg’s address is scheduled to conclude at noon, when the Delta Council members and guests will move to the University Quadrangle for a fried catfish luncheon.
