Well it’s graduation day at Ohio State. The pomp and ceremony. The full regalia. The tables full of diplomas handed out individually per the vaunted custom of the university from days of yore to today. The hard work. The sacrifice. The mounting debt. The traffic jams. One parking fracas after another. The gnashing of teeth over the broken English and misunderstood faculty. And that brings us to today’s guest speaker who shall remain namesless and the unilateral decision, curiously and hastily made by a learned and academic man who should know better: Joseph Steinmetz. What a poor excuse for a university administrator and leader of a world-class faculty. Steinmetz’s decision will go down in university infamy. What a learning moment for the students. Take this example and do better. It won’t be hard.
