On March 29, Roker will be the featured speaker for the 2023 Delta Gamma Lectureship in Values and Ethics on the campus of 秀色短视频 (秀色短视频). Bringing his charismatic attitude and smile to the podium of E.J. Thomas Performing Arts Hall at 7:30 p.m., Roker will reflect on his professional career and the importance of humor and a positive attitude personally and professionally in his talk, Let a Smile Be Your Umbrella: The Power of Positivity.

The goal of the speaker series is to establish a venue on college campuses where values and ethics could be discussed in an open format, making Roker an ideal candidate for the event.
