GW’s 2009 keynote commencement speaker, Rahm Emanuel, gave nearly the same speech to GW graduates as he did to graduates of Sarah Lawrence College, a small liberal arts school in Bronxville, N.Y.
Aside from sharing some personal memories from his undergraduate experience at Sarah Lawrence, his alma mater, Emanuel’s speech was exactly the same.
You can compare the speech he gave at GW on May 17 to the speech he gave at Sarah Lawrence five days later.
