10 ½ Things No Commencement Speaker Has Ever Said

â€œA book filled with so much wisdom that I have no choice but to recommend it.â€â€”Craig Wilson, USA Today

The antidote to those cotton-candy platitudes that are all too familiar to anyone whoâ€™s ever worn a mortarboard, Wheelanâ€™s 101 head-turning aphorismsâ€”backed up by a PhD in public policy and extensive social science researchâ€”set the record straight. Readers everywhere agreed, turning a Dartmouth Class Day speech that had gone viral into a best-selling book.

Whether praising the time â€œwastedâ€ in fraternity basements; mentioning that, frankly, the worst days of your life still lie ahead; or simply asking that graduates avoid wreaking the kind of havoc that others before them have, Wheelan softens his candid conclusions with good-natured charm and tales of unconventional success. With cartoons sprinkled throughout to keep things light, this volume makes a perfect gift for graduates of all ages.
