I can’t remember a word anyone said at my high school graduation. That’s not a reflection on the speakers; it was just a hectic evening.

Of course, this was long before digital video. We had stone tablets, which, sadly, have been lost to history.

The Morristown High School Class of 2017 is much luckier.

Its members live in the Video Age, and here are the videos to remind them exactly what was said at  their  commencement last week in Mennen Arena.

If these 465 grads ever find themselves at a loss for words to live by, this is their refresher course.
