Pomps and circumstances

Since graduation is on the minds of so many people of late, I decide to share with you a link to the greatest graduation speech I have ever heard. It was delivered by Dr. Francis S. Collins, director of the National Institute of Health’s human genome project, at the 2001 UVA graduation. He talked about life’s four priorities - love, faith, work, and fun - and then launched into a rendition of his own version of one of Frank Sinatra’s better known songs.

The link is here. Go to "graduation speech" under "Finals 2001 Archives." Enjoy!
