Meet LSU College of Art & Design Commencement Student Speaker Sophie Webber, who graduates with a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture.
"It is so hard to pick a favorite LSU memory, but I have to say it was either my planting design class held at Hilltop Arboretum or the landscape architecture spring break trips I attended to Brazil, Germany, and France!"
