UMass Rally Honors Grads, not Andy Card

[brstocker]

Pres. Bush spoke at the Miami Dade College graduation and the students did nothing. The only protest was outside? There are youtube videos on that protest. I wonder what made such a difference in conscience and consciousness between the two schools?

Hey these students are great. Everybody speaks intelligently (not just slinging shrillness around) but still being super persistent.

I don't understand why a college would do this. Over and above the political ickiness, it is the students' graduation, and after their families, and a majority of he public are now opposed to this war. So what gives? I wouldn't pay to send my kid there if there were other alternatives just as good or better and s/he did not really go there.
