Are you getting sick of commencment speakers?
Oddly enough, Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz was a speaker at both and gave almost the same speech, but he was lively and entertaining. Otherwise, the junior high teachers were better speakers than high school speakers. The HS principal droned on and on and gave 10-minute intros to every student receiving an award (including two stories for a double winner).
I'm glad I chose not to walk behind the students at my school's graduation, so I won't have to sit through the entire ceremony. I can watch from the sidelines (literally, actually, because it's on the football field).
