To College Senior: you have it wrong; Dikembe’s signature call was not “who wants to sex Mutumbo” but “Who will sex Dikembe tonight?!” Those of us who witnessed the man with the booming voice as he walked out of New South on a Friday afternoon, wandering over to his Village A apartment, will never forget it. — C’92

I think President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf is a great choice for the SFS. I am not sure why Will would say that she speaks here all the time, as the only other time I think she spoke at Georgetown was in Fall 2006.

It is also funny and good that Mary Schapiro is the MBA speaker as the SEC is investigating Goldman Sachs.

Hoya – Not true. Pelosi showed up at SFS-Q graduation because her husband is on the board. But she only gave a 2 minute congratulatory note, not a commencement speech.

SFS-Q was told that DeGioia was there commencement speaker last year as well, and it actually wound up being Nancy Pelosi. Don’t take that one at face value.

All around, I think it’s a solid group of speakers. Sounds good!

I’d say Casey and Sirleaf are their only main “gets” if we can call them that. Hale looks like she could be interesting.

Mutombo continues the tradition of recycling speakers that we get all the time here.

Poor SFS-Q keeps getting screwed. A DeGioia speech is the last thing you want sending you off.
