graduating class at commencement next fall. At the top of the page, write out the thesis that you would like to argue, then write a body paragraph, of approximately 300 words in length, to support your thesis. You may use Jobss or Rushdies, or any of the other addresses we read or watched in class as models for your own if you wish. A convocation address may be funny or serious, and is almost always poignant, and hopefully inspiring. However, remember that a convocation address usually includes the following: 1. A sense of purpose 2. A few reflections on events, situations, experiences that have occurred over the course of your time within the school/academic institution 3. A broader insight that you would like to share with your graduating class. Your insights may be about any number of things, including life, learning, the future, or community, etc. When you submit your assignment for evaluation, make sure you include each of the following: Proper title page, address (12 pt font, double spaced), rough work, and rubric (face up and on top of the assignment).
