STEPHEN COLBERT CAN ADD AWESOME COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER TO HIS RESUME

Northwestern's most famous alum, Stephen Colbert, returns to campus and delivers one of the greatest graduation speeches. Of. All. Time. It's a great rebound for a school trying to put their f&xk saw past behind them. Good luck, Northwestern Wildcats class of 2011.

Every college institution take note. This is how you inspire your graduates, with someone inspiring— intellectually and humanly.  I don't even remember mine. I think it was a state senator. Needless to say, it was not this. Via Open Culture
