Temple grads to receive "tchotchkes of value" from Chris Matthews

Philadelphia-area graduation speakers are preparing to offer words of wisdom to their audiences. Political talk-show host Chris Matthews, who will speak at Temple on Thursday, wants to make sure students graduate knowing how to deal with people, and will impart what he has "learned from political big shots about how to get ahead." To encourage them to internalize his advice, all graduates will receive a small card printed with five pieces of advice from Matthews, what the host of MSNBC's "Hardball" calls a "tchotchke of value."
