Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg to speak at BYU

Mark Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Facebook, and U.S. Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, will present a technology forum on March 25 at 11 a.m. in the Marriott Center.

As the chairman of the U.S. Senate Republican High-Tech Task Force, Hatch has had the opportunity to meet with Zuckerberg on previous occasions.

According to a news release, the forum will be in Q-and-A format, and students can submit their questions via BYU’s Facebook page, facebook.com/BYU. Questions must be submitted by March 22.

Carri Jenkins, university spokeswoman, said submitted questions should follow the brief guidelines posted on the BYU Facebook page. Zuckerberg will answer questions regarding his area of expertise, including an innovator’s point of view about technology, growth and social media. Sen. Hatch will answer the questions dealing with public policy, she said.

“As a university, we strive to provide students the opportunity to hear from today’s important leaders,” Jenkins said.
