The speaker in 1983 for my graduation was George Schultz, then the US Secretary of State. The only memory that I have of his speech is that he was dodging champagne corks being shot his way. The Secret Service guys were freaking out.
I believe that was the last commencement in Frost because it was just not big enough to accommodate the number of people wanting to attend. I hope that more recent students have been relieved of the mad scramble to find commencement tickets when each graduating student was limited to 2 tickets.
Oasis, Robert Pinsky has been ranked highly on my list of Cool People ever since I saw him moderate Stephen Colbert vs. Sean Penn in the Meta-Free-Phor-All.
