Auburn President Jay Gogue interviews for the first time


A unique trait of Gogue is that he never once interviewed for a job. In an exclusive interview with Eagle Eye's Katherine Neil Gogue sat through his first interview; an interview for his retirement. 

As for those final words to students, Gogue stated, "I would simply say...I get emotional, so I can't do it. I'll just say War Eagle."
