The most famous person to ever to graduate from Cabrini University delivered the most famous speech ever at Cabrini University ever:

“Your high school graduation was stolen from you…then your college announced it was closing…and now this. You couldn’t even get a top-5 Kelce.” – Kylie Kelce at Cabrini’s commencement 😂

First your high school graduation was stolen from you by a global pandemic. Then your college announced it was closing and your senior year was spent on a campus that resembled a ghost town. And now this. You couldn’t even get a top-5 Kelce as your commencement speaker.

Speeches just run in this family’s genes huh? Shout out to Cabrini for making their last ever commencement one to remember. So many commencement speakers are boring, un-relatable, or tell your girlfriend to get in the kitchen.

Other times the commencement just goes completely off the rails and the person in charge of reading the names can’t even do that right:

Kylie on the other hand told relatable college stories about stealing Cabrini flags (definitely shitfaced) via Michaela Althouse at PhillyVoice.com:

In her speech, she spoke of transferring from Montgomery County Community College and starting at Cabrini as a 21-year-old freshman. She recalled a time when a friend stood on her shoulders to steal one of the Cabrini College flags that hung on the light posts — a public safety officer passing by asked if they needed a hand (Cabrini was set to take the flags down the following week when it changed its name to Cabrini University). 

I’ll tell you what, I can’t remember anything some GlaxoSmithKline exec said at my graduation, but I’d hang on every word of this one. This and the billionaire giving everyone with crippling student debt $1,000 has to be up there with best grad speeches of 2024.

If you weren’t aware Villanova bought Cabrini back in November I guess now you are. The only school they found a team of Wildcats who could finish the job against this year.
