“So I think it's important to communicate with the people in terms of what the real facts are on these proposals and try to have a discussion and a dialogue that gives people information.

“This is a perfect example of the power and ridiculousness of a website like Wikipedia. I did give a slightly contentious graduation speech, where I decided not to be funny as my classmates had hoped, which was why I was chosen. I was not valedictorian, that's for sure.

And then somebody added the bit about me exposing my genitals to the crowd.” GivingBitsPerfectTeacherExampleStudentsSpeechPagesDecidedCrowdsCommunicateChosenAdministrationIncidentsWebsiteExposingWikipediaTeacher And StudentClassmatesContentiousGraduation SpeechValedictorians Author:Nick Kroll
