Harvard Is Too Good for J. K. Rowling?
Okay, say what you will about NU students acting elitist about Daley as the commencement speaker.  But some Harvard students were a little miffed they got a writer and not a leader to speak.

Apparently Gradgate '08 (term coined by wearyourshaydes) has got the internet's panties in a knot.

Poll: Daley as the Commencement Speaker

Daley as the Commencement Speaker
Tell us how you really feel...statistically speaking.

Well, since the original speaker backed out, I guess there's nothing to do but...BOYCOTT COMMENCEMENT!
It sucks, but graduation is a happy time.  I'm just happy to have a diploma and spend time with my friends and family.
If Daley delivers an awesome speech, then does it really matter?
