Graduation Speakers 101

Posted by uberuser

With Spring Break wrapping up for many schools, it’s only a matter of time before graduation season commences. Of course students nationwide already have their countdowns ready, marking each passing day between them and their diploma. At both a high school and collegiate level, graduation day remains one of those seminal moments in everybody’s lives that are forever etched in our mental scrapbook.

Along with the goofy gowns, goofier hats and glowing smiles on the faces of family and friends, the graduation speaker is often one of the most memorable parts of the ceremony. Choosing a speaker for a commencement address can be a difficult choice as you attempt to find one person who will be able to speak to the hopes and dreams of all graduates.

While celebrities and public figures can be an exciting (and pricey) choice, there are many other incredible speakers who can motivate, inspire and empower young people as they begin a new journey. Most importantly, a commencement address must be something that relates to students and gives them a tangible takeaway as they move forward in their respective careers.
