Probably the best graduation/commencement speech I’ve ever heard.
It is worth your leisurely 18 minutes, (and very stangely, an unsuspecting audience parent is caught wiping goop from eye and eating it! You will see this about 7 minutes in). Otherwise, very enjoyable, funny, thoughtful piece. I graduated in ’94 and my commencement speaker was Al Gore. Yes, much sleepiness on that hot afternoon as he didn’t go until the bitter end and then he kept going until the bitter end.
To the actors/improvisers in my readership, you will appreciate the lessons she takes from her Chicago improv education.
By the way, for the 100th post on this blog, Zamboni needs a question- have one for him?
