Google CEO Schmidt to give UPenn Commencement Speech
Posted at 8:10am EST on 02/24/2009
The University of Pennsylvania announced today that Eric Schmidt will be giving the commencement speech this coming spring. The event will take place at 10am EDT on May 10th, 2009.
But here’s the kicker, according to the BizJournals, Schmidt will be receiving an honorary degree of science at the ceremony.
Ummm that’s a little weird. He gets an honorary degree just for doing the commencement speech? Wow.
Just feels a little odd to me.
