From the UCLA Daily Bruin:

Despite being 3,000 miles away, Laura Bush fueled debate between administrators and students who objected to the possibility of having the first lady speak at this year\’s commencement ceremony.

Students in the Graduate School of Education & Information Studies met with Dean Aimee Dorr on Friday to demand that she rescind the invitation to Bush.

\”The commencement speaker should speak to us based on achievements in the field,\” she said. \”(Bush) has no merit.\”

Watford then read a quote in which Bush allegedly admitted to becoming a librarian to expand her dating circle . . .
