<p>The Morgridges spoke at the 2011 May graduations (during the time they held multiple ceremonies in the Kohl Center) and gave a good speech together- easy to listen to without getting bored. As a parent and alumnus I was pleasantly surprised by them- any doubts I had about having them as the featured speaker were erased when they spoke. I am also impressed with their UW philanthropy.</p>
