So far, so good

As of today's date, 5/20, coverage of La Salle’s commencement exercises included coverage by TV stations WCAU (Channel 10), KYW (Channel 3), CWU (Channel 57), WPHL (Channel 17) and WPVI (Channel 6); KYW newsradio interviewed nursing graduate Eileen Baughan about switching her careers; Philadelphia Daily News columnist Dan Gross reported talk show host Dom Giordano’s son, Luke, was named the top math student.

More to come (I hope).

BTW, we had to do two indoor ceremonies because of the weather. My only regret is that people missed a chance to see how beautiful the campus is right now and how Mario and his first-rate crew worked so hard to make it that way.

Honorary Degree recipient Tim Shriver, CEO of the Special Olympics, gave a very nice speech and the commencement address by senior Patrick Terranova wa one of the best I've heard in my time here.
