Questionnaire for Your
Graduation Speech
Copy and paste the following questions into a word processing program or into the body of an email.

The best speeches tell stories, so if you have stories, please share them as completely as possible. Your speech can only contain those things you share with us. Don’t hold back. Share freely.
