I happened a few years ago to be at a relative's graduation from Wilson College in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. They gave Temple Grandin an honorary degree, and she gave them an excellent commencement speech. I haven't heard a lot of commencement speeches, but this one was a lot better than the excerpts I see every year from big universities. I did not think worse of Dr. Grandin for receiving the award, and I did think much better of Wilson College for their choice of commencement speaker (to the extent that I thought about it at all before).
