Hillary Clinton To Address NYU Grads at Commencement, Be Given Honorary Degree

It’s official, Hillary Clinton will be speaking at NYU’s May 13th commencement at Yankee Stadium. But Hillary’s speech isn’t free, she’ll be walking away with an honorary Doctor of Laws degree. It’s sort of like NYU’s version of an Oscars swag bag.

Also receiving honorary degrees are Playwright John Patrick Shanley, bad ass White House Journalist Helen Thomas, Nobel Prize winning Physicist Albert Fert, and Health Advocate Jessie Gruman.
