To be fair, this isn’t the commencement speaker’s job.

If this is sarcasm, it's amazing. If not, depressing.

I would 100% expect a commencement speaker to be hyping me up for what comes next.

That’s what this speaker was trying to do. The problem is it was stupid and dishonest. It could have been done properly. But none of that will rise to the level of a roadmap. If you’re looking for a roadmap at commencement, you were failed at multiple steps before.
