Remember Your
Graduation Talk?
CIRCYEVILLE, Ohio (/P)—'This
probably-typical American commu
nity has provided what probably is
typical reaction to the commence
ment address.
Less than six months after the
1961 high school commencement
exercises, a survey was taken of a
large cross-section of the graduat
ing class. Two questions were
asked:
What was the name of the
speaker?
What did he say?
None of those questioned could
remember the speaker’s name.
Only one had a vague idea of what
he had said. One girl recalled
something about “how we would
appreciate our parents later in
life.”
The man who spoke, Dr. Harold
L. Yochum, president of Capital
University in Columbus, wasn’t the
least surprised.
He said he could not recall the
name of the gentleman who spoke
at his high school commencement,
nor anything that was said.
But the university president de
fended graduation speeches just
the same. Having a commencement
exercise without an address, he
said, “would be like getting mar
ried by proxy.”
