Well, I gave a speech at my college graduation, and I tried to draw on life experiences not only I had, but a lot of other people graduating at the time had them, too.  Pick things that aren't just about you, but make sure you can incorporate them without make the whole speech about your life.  Mention people who helped get you (as a class) get you to where you are today.  The more you can relate it to your audience (which includes administrators, family, and your classmates), the more successful it will be.

In the Education section of your resume, you could write the date of the expected graduation, which indicates to the employer that you are still working on your degree and have not graduated yet! As simple as that! Example:\n\nXYZ University                              City, State\nMBA in Marketing\nExpected Graduation: 1234\n\nHope this helps!

You use "candidate" when you start the porgram, \n"graduand" when you successfully complete and are waiting to formally graduate and \n"graduate" when you are formally handed your accredation.

Great article below:\n\nOlympia Brown\n\n"Olympia Brown (January 5, 1835-October 23, 1926) dedicated her life to opening doors for women. Among only a handful of women to graduate from college, she received her Bachelor of Arts degree from Antioch in 1860 and three years later became the first woman graduate of a regularly established theological school at St. Lawrence University. She was ordained a Universalist minister, the first woman to achieve full ministerial standing recognized by a denomination. As a young minister, she took an active role in the women's suffrage movement and was one of the few original suffragists who lived to vote in the 1920 presidential election."\n\nRead more here:\n\nhttp://www.uua.org/uuhs/duub/articles/olympiabrown.html\n\nHope it helps.

This ceremony is called the Inauguration.  We used to set the date of Inauguration for President at March 4th the year after being elected in November.  During the Roosevelt, (FDR)) administration it was changed to the current January 20th date the year following the election in November

Look on Google under "John Stewart Commencement speech".  He gave a great one for his alma mater last year or two years ago.  So funny and so true for this generation.

I am not quite sure just what you're asking. Speeches are usually a formal address and are most commonly thought of in connection with politics. They are given on momentous occasions, national holidays, when running for office, and to commemerate events.\n\nA speech given at a graduation ceremony is known as a commencement address, a sermon is associated with church, a lecture by a teacher or professor; a tirade or diatribe would be a vehement or denouncing something.\n\nSome speeches are well-remembered, like George Washington's Farewell Address and Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address.
