If I Could Say A Few Words...I'd Be A Better Public Speaker

What do you do when you can't find a commencement speaker worthy of your prestigious university? Just pick the school president. That's exactly what Villonova has done in choosing Rev. Edmund Dobbin, the current school president, as its commencement speaker. If any Villonova graduates are too upset they can join the support group that is sure to be started by University of Pennsylvania graduates. Last year the commencement speaker for the school of arts and sciences was Kofi Anan. This year it's Jodie Foster.

Despite their lackluster commencement speakers, none of these students should be as upset as the Notre Dame men's cross country team. Due to an oversight the team was left out of the 2006 yearbook. I can just imagine some day fifteen years from now where one of the runners is trying to use his college athletics to impress a girl, only to have her discover there isn't any evidence he was on the team.
