To say that the Class of 2020 is Anal sex moviesin for a unique graduation season would be a serious understatement.
As a result of coronavirus social distancing guidelines, many high schools and universities around the world have had to cancel upcoming graduation ceremonies for students. Choosing not to hold these large gatherings is definitely the smart and safe move, but missing graduation is still a huge bummer.
Many individual schools will be holding virtual, makeshift, heavily scaled-down graduation ceremonies in place of elaborate in-person celebrations. And Facebook, John Krasinski, iHeartMedia, and more are also holding their own virtual events for graduates.

Former FLOTUS, Michelle Obama, is also an experienced commencement speaker. You may recall her 2016 address to graduates at City College in New York — her final commencement speech as first lady — but she's also spoken at graduations for Oberlin College, Tuskegee University, Virginia Tech, and more.
For an extremely blunt, tough-love type of speech, look no further than Robert De Niro's commencement address to New York University's Tisch School of the Arts grads in 2015.

If you're in need of more laughs and insight, actor and comedian Ken Jeong has you covered. He spoke to graduates at the University of North Carolina in 2019, and dropped some real inspiration.

Jennifer Garner, actress and graduate of Denison University's Class of 1994, delivered the Ohio college's commencement address in 2019.

"Why would you dress like a flirty nurse when you could be a mailbox? It's an opportunity," Garner said. She's absolutely correct.
Lin-Manuel Miranda has also delivered several memorable commencement addresses — one in 2015 at his alma mater, Wesleyan, and another in 2016 at the University of Pennsylvania.
