We are in the midst of graduation exercises for many college and university students all over America. A time to rejoice that finally, finally they can put the books away and move on to the next stage of their lives; just one more 'event' and they're off - Commencement! Into these colleges and universities come speakers who give them their personal words of wisdom for the final touch on their way to their future.
Some noted speakers: VP Joe Biden/Yale, VA Gov. Terry McAuliffe/University of Virginia, Sen. Michael Bennet/University of Denver, Pres. George W. Bush/Southern Baptist University, Texas, Apple CEO Tim Cook/George Washington University.
I chose, however, to concentrate this article on two others - First Lady of the United States Michelle Obama/Tuskegee University, Alabama and Actor Denzel Washington/Dillard University, New Orleans. Why? You'll see!
