Back in 1995, the graduating class at University High School, where I taught
AP Microeconomics and AP Macroeconomics, asked me if
I would be its keynote speaker at its commencement ceremony.
Below is the link to the 12-minute commencement address. It was
taken in analog and transferred to digital in 2011, so please forgive
the blurriness of the video. The words are far more important than
the videos. At the end, stop the video, read the assignment to
your students, have them write a thank-you letter to their
parents, and most importantly, have them bring the letter home
and put it in a place the student's parent(s) will find it. This was
my favorite lesson I think I ever game to my students.
