President George W. Bush is scheduled to deliver the commencement address at Saint Vincent College this May, but that's not sitting well with everyone.
Members of the Benedictine Religious Order joined a group of alumni for a protest -- designed to put pressure on college officials to withdraw the invitation.
The protestors said they disagree with the President's foreign policy and question the message he would share with the students.
"I wouldn't recommend him a model for these young people," said Barbara Roseborough, of Benedictines For Peace.
The group claims the college sent security officers to photograph and document the names of people attending a vigil on Easter Sunday.
