[quote=Anonymous]Wellesley School grads told they are nothing special at commencement It’s graduation season, time to heap accolades upon those who achieved by graduating. Right? Some 400 graduates at Wellesley High School in Wellesley, Mass. were at the receiving end of a different kind of speech. Indeed, the chief theme of the commencement address is “You are not special.” David McCullough Jr., the school’s English teacher who made the speech, says, “If everyone is special, no one is” “You’ve been pampered, cosseted, doted upon, helmeted, bubble-wrapped . . . You’ve been feted and fawned over and called sweetie pie. Yes, you have.” [/quote]
