my speech to the graduates
Transcript of the Rutgers Graduate School of Education Commencement 2006 if I was in charge:
"Welcome everyone. Now you are officially unemployed. In conclusion, there is free beer and chicken on the quad."
The real graduation was 120 minutes longer and there was no beer or chicken. Men talked at us for ages. Some old guy presented his brave vision for revolutionizing K-3 education which must have been really interesting to someone somewhere.
Still, it was a beautiful day. My loving wife and parents sat through the whole ordeal with every sign of good cheer, and we all went for Ethiopian lunch afterwards.
