Nerds Move On, Everyone Else Moves Home

Nerds Move On, Everyone Else Moves Home

The class of 2008 is the class of the momma’s boys (and girls). A startling new survey by Collegegrad.com found that 77 percent of this year’s college grads moved back home with their parents after graduation.
 

So who are the 23 percent who actually get to proudly bring hotties back to their pads late at night instead of having to sneak around ...

Bill Clinton Crushes Thousands of UCLA Grads

Bill Clinton Crushes Thousands of UCLA Grads

Once again, the Clintons disappoint thousands. Not only that, he possibly crushed UCLA students on one of the most important days of their life – college graduation.

 

Bill backed out of his speaking engagement at UCLA’s commencement ceremony because of an ongoing labor dispute in California.

What a bummer.

 

On the bright side, if these future ...

Gradgate '08: Seniors Apparently Appalled

Gradgate '08: Seniors Apparently Appalled
As expected, seniors are not pleased with the let-down announcement of Mayor Daley as a graduation speaker. There are already over 200 comments on The Daily's article, of which only a handful are even remotely positive. Luckily for you, I read through every last one (including comments on Rumor Royalty and North By Northwestern - you're welcome)

Attention Seniors: Greatest Job Listing Ever

Attention Seniors: Greatest Job Listing Ever
Like many impending graduates, I am spending my last few weeks of college alternatively drinking and looking for jobs. And like many, I realize that I am underqualified for anything I want to do and overqualified for anything my parents think I'm good at (namely, alphabetizing.)

Thus, instead of looking for gainful employment for myself, I will

More NU Commencement Rumors

More NU Commencement Rumors
Time to add another name to the list of potential commencement speakers.  Rumor has it that Tony Blair may be making an appearance for  our 150th Commencement.

Some pretty big names have been dropped, and there's a little less than a month before the speaker takes the stage.  Maybe a reliable leak will help us narrow down our options further.

Celebrities at Graduation...Big Deal?

Celebrities at Graduation...Big Deal?
Lange will be the guest speaker for Sarah Lawrence grads and Mulkasey will grace Boston College Law School grads with his commencement speech.

Seems like lately it’s become a competition to get the most glamorous commencement speaker when really grads just want to pick up their diplomas and head for the door. Graduation ceremonies are an all-d

Secret Grad Speaker: "Lamest. Thing. Ever."

Secret Grad Speaker: "Lamest. Thing. Ever."
The Daily reported today that seriously, there is still no word on who the graduation speaker will be as the university is respecting his request for privacy. However, the article does have the following key clues from President Bienen:

"He is male, an 'extremely well-known person' and somebody who 'doesn't make a habit' of giving graduation sp...

Graduation Gifts: Students Rate the Best

Graduation Gifts: Students Rate the Best
Apparently, it's a boob tube (corny, but it works). The Walmart of electronics, Circuit City, conducted a national survey of  2,400 college students for the best graduation gifts of 2008.

The largest percentage of respondents wanted electronics for graduation gifts. In second place, students craved a vacation (I, second that). Trailing in the

Graduation on Diag Surprisingly Not a Disaster

Graduation on Diag Surprisingly Not a Disaster

                                                             Just...massive.

Alright, I know I'm behind on posting this, but it's taken about three days to have it sink in that I've graduated, not to mention they just now today posted my final grades... Anyways, despite all the bullsh*t that went into planning graduation, it's nice to see that ...

Latest comment by tradina: I have to agree...I thought graduation was actually pretty great. Obviously, the Big House is very special to all of us, but the Diag transformation was amazing.

Bob Woodruff is no Bill Clinton or Nelson Mandela (MSU's Speaker), but he was still pretty good and Andy Ramos was amazing!
