Greg Abbott to be UNT commencement speaker


Recommended Posts

I think we had president Rawlins at ours. He talked for like 15 minutes at best. Yay December commencements!

Heck, mine was in August 2001. I seem to recall the speaker was the Dean of the Library Sciences School. He was actually rather funny and kept it short.

In May of 2008 we had the new head of the Alumni Association speak at ours. He slipped up and called the school UT at one point,then said "Oh come on I just missed a consonant!" after he was booed...

That story is going to be tough to beat.

UNT can do a big commencement speaker now due to the commencement changes. Everyone now graduates at the same time out at Apogee on Saturday night. This hopefully will be the first of many big speakers in the future.

Great to hear and as it should be! Kudos to Dr. S for making more positive changes.

Higgins said, ‘You f***ing pieces of s***’ and ‘I’m going to beat you until you’re dead.

"Higgins hit the elevator with his head and then pretended to pass out and slumped to the floor. I could tell that Higgins had not actually passed out because he was giggling.”

"Higgins also threatened Aspen Ambulance paramedics and attempted to bite one who was attempting to bandage a cut on his nose"

I take calling this guy a spare back.
