The star power of Temple's 123rd Commencement exercises at the Liacouras Center on May 13 earned Temple two of the 10 spots in Entertainment Weekly's list of 10 best celeb speakers at graduation ceremonies nationwide. The list includes pictures of honorary degree recipient Patti LaBelle and Temple Trustee Bill Cosby as well as links to video clips of Commencement. EW's favorite quote from Cosby's speech to Temple graduates: "Many of you will become parents, and God has a way of paying you back." Their conclusion about Temple's ceremony: "Show of hands? Best. Graduation. Ever."
