Commencement: "For those graduating this semester, the task of picking up their cap and gown may lead to the first realization that the knowledge they have gained and the experiences they have had at USC are truly ending," writes Karen A. Lefkowitz in the student newspaper of the University of Southern California, the
Daily Trojan. (Isn't that the perfect name for a college newspaper?)
Anyways, Karen reflects on some of the movies that create a montage of the collective experiences of university life.
Animal House,
Rudy,
Good Will Hunting,
Legally Blonde, and
Old School: "these films in one way or another have mimicked the experiences had on the USC campus," she writes.
"All the fun of college, none of the education" was the tagline of
Old School. Speaking of which,
Will Ferrell addressed the graduates at Harvard's commencement at the end of last year.
