Rusharound

Yippee! Best-friend (and best-man at my wedding and vice-versa at his wedding) Marc was the graduation speaker at yesterday’s ceremony. He spoke to a crowd of 19,000 people! From NYU’s Website:

The undergraduate student speaker at the 2007 Commencement Exercises was Marc Gustafson, who received a B.A. from the McGhee Division of the School of Continuing and Professional Studies. After leaving college 1997, he founded a non-profit, Reach the World, to teach low-income students about world cultures and geography, and sailed around the world sharing his geographic adventures with New York City public school children. He returned to school in NYU’s Paul McGhee Division for adult learners, where he received the Schlansky Research Scholarship. He also received a Marshall Scholarship and will pursue a master’s degree at Oxford beginning this fall.

Way to go Marc!
