I recently found out this year’s graduating class (2010) has an abundant of speakers to select from and one of them is David Sedaris…. I wish I graduated with these guys. I’m not sure if our graduating class of 2008 had a choice when it came to commencement guest speakers. We had Paula Scher, who wasn’t bad, but is it my fault i couldn’t remember anything she said? granted, other than the MICApella group’s impressive performance of Under Pressure by Queen, I can’t remember much of anything else. But still, i wonder if a speech by any of the following would be more interesting.

1. Ira Glass
2. Barbra Kruger
3. Ed Ruscha
4. Maya Lin
5. Lucy Lippard
6. Hans Haacke
7. Stefan Sagmeister
8. Andrew W. K
9. David Sedaris
10. David Bryne
11. Richard Serra
12. Cai Guo- Qiang
13. Cindy Sherman
14. Jenny Holzer
15. Petah Coyne
16. John Baldessari
17. Nick Cave
