Wow, I think this is a bit extreme. This has not been my experience with
students at Rutgers U., Wesleyan U., LeTourneau U., Rice U. or the College of
William and Mary. Also, the likes of nonliberal-noncommunists types such as
Margaret Thatcher, George Bush and Bill Cosby are among some the commencement
speakers I personally am familiar with. (I am not familiar with Mr. Cosby's
political views so perhaps he should be left out; but how can I leave Bill Cosby
out! Besides, he spoke at my M.A. graduation at Wesleyan, Ct. in 1986)
Sincerely
George
