Written by Jesse on December 21, 2022
The University of Wisconsin-Madison 2022 winter graduates were treated to a commencement speech from one of their own on Sunday. Wisconsin funnyman, and member of the class of 2009, Charlie Berens gave some words of encouragement, along with a joke or two.
According to Channel3000.com
He was honored, even if he satirically questioned the university’s selection.
“It is really an honor. If you go to the UW website, they have a webpage for notable alumni; they’ve got astronauts, they’ve got US Senators, and somehow they ended up with me as their speaker,” Berens said. “But you’ll notice I’m not on that webpage. Maybe one day.”
Charlie also gifted the students a copy of his book. Take a look at the full speech below
