‘Tis the Season … for Commencement Speeches

I’ve received several requests for information on writing commencement speeches.

For starters, turn to CAN YOU SAY A FEW WORDS? (St. Martin’s Press, 2006).  The book features a large chapter on commencement speeches.  Plus, the Appendix provides a detailed description of more than one hundred books and websites … all offering great/quotable lines.

Also:  Wisconsin Public Radio interviewed me for a one-hour show on commencement speeches:  www.wpr.org #070523M (”At Issue with Ben Merens”).
