Graduation speech rant

[Sympthsical]

3. It's the student's personal speech

If someone employed by the school had done it or wrote the speech for the student, there'd be a valid complaint there.

But students are given leeway in expression - and it is this student's expression. There's no law against students being religious or expressing themselves that way. There have been multiple issues over graduations and religion/culture, and the law has generally come down on leaving students' religious and cultural expressions alone at graduation events.

And that goes for everyone. Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist, etc.

Probably not the most important thing in world. I genuinely do not remember a single speech anyone ever gave at one of my graduations. Probably be grateful it was only 5 minutes. I've been at some where the speaker just goes on and on and on, and there is only so much fanning with the program a body can do.
