Post-graduation life, from Elie Weisel, Susan Sontag, Andy Samberg and More!
May means it’s over—school, that is, for college seniors. The only thing left to do now it pay too much to dress in a colorful robe and funny, flat hat, listen to important people talk from a stage, walk across said stage, take photos with your family, then go out to eat with them. Part of the attraction of these ceremonies, at least for some, is a billing of some celebrity or politician, who uses the pulpit to proffer truths and advice about living life for captive, sponge-minded audiences who, ideally, are eager to soak it up.
