As we all know the objective of this speech is to talk about our memory 's in sachem. This was actually pretty hard for me considering I barley remember what happened yesterday. Although my memory may just be as bad as Mr. Pringles who asks me where I 'm going at least three times within the same five minutes it 's still pretty up there. What I can say is I will remember this. All of the times I have been called poofy, serena williams or even troy polamaloo because apparently my hair morphs my…

with the staff and other students. Like every other high school in America all seniors look forward to graduating. This is the last step in completing the first of many parts in my life. As graduation approaches all seniors are looking forward the lasting tradition of how our school sets up its graduation. From the walk in to the walk across the stage and pictures as we receive our diplomas. All of these steps tie in together so well to make our day very special. To remember our experience…

year to do everything that was in my power to beat her to it. All it took me was one class and it was my strongest class that year. She got a grade below me and that was enough to beat her. But it was not until I was in 12th grade, a week before graduation that I was officially told that I was the valedictorian of the class of 2013. The writing process of my speech was a more complex one than others because I tried to involve most of my classmates and teachers because I did not want to leave…

For this week’s assignment I chose to watch the commencement address delivered by CLA graduate Mike Paulbeck in 2015. I thought his speech tied in very well to the “laying a foundation for the future” theme. Matt Paulbeck in his speech talked a lot about how the University of Minnesota will prepare you for what comes next in life. I thought this was a profound statement because it shows the importance of the University of Minnesota when making decisions that will impact the rest of your life. In…

What are the points of a commencement speech or graduation speech by the valedictorian? Their main objective is to give credit to the people that helped him or her and his or her class reach the point they are at now, deliver the speech with emotion and feeling, while keeping it simple enough to show the logic in what that class and person has done in their years at their respected school. Jake Tapper spoke at his commencement speech on behalf of the class of 2017 at Dartmouth University. He…

Welcome family, friends, students, and faculty. We arrived at this school 9 years ago and now we are already graduating. How did time go by so fast? It seems like only yesterday we were short little kindergarteners trying to learn our alphabet and looking up to the intimidating eighth graders. The bad news is time flies by, the good news it we are the pilots. I have got to known all 50 of my fellow classmates over these years, some more than others, but I will always remember them all for having…

Good Evening, my fellow graduating class, our magnificent teachers and administrators, and our very supportive parents. It is nice to see you all here tonight.I am Devin Brennan. We are gathered here to celebrate the graduating class of 2018. We have finally made it. Three years seemed like a long time, but it feels like just yesterday we were just sixth graders trying to find our way around the school. Eventually we did find our way, not just through the hallways, but in our student life. None…

Chris’s blind arrogance and views of society are shown throughout the film; however, a scene in particular is his graduation sequence where the director uses cinematography, voice over, and dialogue to portray this. It is clear Chris has no respect or pride in graduating. This is shown to us by the way he jumps on stage when his name is called. Straight after a mid shot of Chris’s parents is shown who look appalled by Chris’ behaviour, followed by a close up of Chris fathers face who doesn't…

Henry David Thoreau would have been a fine choice for graduation speaker at Loyola University Chicago. While Thoreau held somewhat-conflicting views on civil disobedience, his life philosophy would have certainly spoken to the young Millennials graduating this spring. Thoreau would have spoken about freedom, individuality, and the importance of doing the right thing. Thoreau would have been a perfect fit for a commencement speech, as they were the target audience of his book. He stated, “Perhaps…
