Quality Commencement Speeches

2014 had a pretty good slew of commencement speeches at colleges from notable figures in the United States. Comedic talent was abundant on graduation stages, especially when it comes to alums from The Office. Check out some of the best!

A familiar science guy named Bill Nye took a more scientific approach to his commencement speech, naturally.


Comedian Jim Carrey had a surprisingly heartfelt speech. The tone was much different than what most students expected.


Perhaps the most widely-appealing and acclaimed speech from 2014 came from Charlie Day of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Pacific Rim fame.


The funniest speech definitely came from Mindy Kaling. She spoke at Harvard and delighted the world, once again. Her brilliant writing skills definitely shone in this.


I believe my personal favorite speech comes from Ed Helms, who played Andy Bernard on The Office. Andy is notably a Cornell University alum and many jokes come from this. He addresses The Office during his speech and it is a meta experience as a whole.
