Whoopsies
Relying on a Democrat? They should've known better.
Fabian Nunez did not speak at commencement, a dire blow to the hearts of graduating seniors. ("Graduating senior Bill Rasoul admitted he had never heard of Nunez...") He didn't want to cross picket lines.
During opening remarks at the commencement, Chancellor Robert Birgeneau said university officials had been in "constant negotiation" with Nunez in the hour before convocation began to persuade him to speak.
How odd. Shouldn't they have dealt with this earlier? At Tuesday's hearing, I overheard Manny talking about how no Democrat would speak at commencement because of union stuff. It's not like no one knew.
