To the chagrin of the NYU senior community-- the commencement speaker is not an individual who represents the greater community. It is unfair-- due to NYU's history of well known speakers for commencement-- that a relatively unknown individual is speaking and representing our four years of hard work and dedication to this institution. What we would like to represent as our commencement speaker is Aziz Ansari-- a very well known and treasured alumnus of New York University.

We even did our research, Aziz is on break between May 13 to May 31. http://www.ticketmaster.com/Aziz-Ansari-tickets/artist/1005201#artist_table_focus
