Past speakers have included President Clinton, Jerry Seinfeld, Chevy Chase and Jon Stewart. But, deadpanned Carell: “Speeches are forgotten as soon as they are delivered. Witness Brooke Shields, Katie Couric and especially Stephen Colbert. He is the worst.”

In his final words, he offered students advice:

“Show up on time, because to be late is to show disrespect,” he said. “Remember the words regime and regiment are not interchangeable. Get a dog because cats are lame. And every once in awhile, put something positive into the world. We’ve become so cynical these days and by ‘we,’ I mean us. So do something kind, make somebody laugh and don’t take yourself too seriously.”
