Graduation Speaker?

We were in Berkeley a few days ago eating at Cha-Am Thai in the Gourmet Ghetto section of North Berkeley, and it was very evident that the university and the city itself was abuzz with the frenzy of graduation ceremonies. I can still remember my Berkeley graduation and the memorable walk across the stage of Hearst Greek Theater on one of the warmest days of the year. I even recall the gargantuan beach ball being tossed back and forth over the mass sea of black caps, as well as the hundreds of soap bubbles being blown into the still air. The one thing I do not remember is the graduation day speaker, let alone, what that person actually had to say. Wish we were as fortunate as Harvard was during their commencement last year...
