I am delighted that Tim Cook has accepted our invitation to give this year’s commencement address on the National Mall,” George Washington President Steven Knapp said. “I know our graduating students will be inspired and enlightened by his reflections on the lessons he has garnered from his distinguished career as a highly effective leader at the forefront of technological innovation.

Our take on the news:

This isn’t Tim Cook’s first commencement speech, the Apple CEO also delivered a memorable address at his alma mater of Aurburn University. One of the most memorable commencement speeches, however, was delivered by then Apple CEO Steve Jobs in 2005 at Stanford University.
