Hey, smart people. Your old friend Mike McIntyre here. It's time once again for my crowdsourced commencement speech. Please give me one line of great advice for the Class of 2024. Make it original. If you've played before, play again -- but with a new thought this time, please. It can be timeless advice, or thoughts specifically of the times in which we now live.

I'll weave it all into a commencement speech anyone can give on the fly and you'll see it on Ideastream News, ideastream.org and our Instagram page and hear it on The Sound of Ideas.

And ... go!
