The Commencement

Click on the "Trumpets" below to go to the Tulane U page with the complete video of the Commencement, it lasts 1:49:57, Anderson is introduced at 1:01:27 and goes on through the full Commencement speech which ends at 1:19:50 and includes Anderson receiving the Presidential Medal from Tulane U's President Scott S. Cowen. After which President Cowen addresses Anderson by saying: "Anderson, this next bit is for you," but after that I could not see what bit Mr. President was talking about -- Anderson is not addressed after that.

One Note: once you have opened the Tulane page with the video, you press the start arrow and then by clicking on the links at the left of the screen, it will take you to the section of the video the link is named after. Anderson's segment is called "Keynote Speech, Anderson Cooper," it will take you to the introduction of Anderson by President Cowen.
