Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to Speak at NYU's 2009 Commencement

Hillary Clinton is being honored at New York University's 177th Commencement Exercises, which will be held Wednesday, May 13th, in Yankee Stadium.

Hillary will address the graduates and guests and will be walking away with an honorary Doctor of Laws degree at the ceremony. From what I hear, an honorary degree is sort of like NYU’s version of an Oscars swag bag. Sweet!

Also receiving honorary degrees are Playwright John Patrick Shanley, bad ass White House Journalist Helen Thomas, Nobel Prize winning Physicist Albert Fert, and Health Advocate Jessie Gruman.
