Doesn't it seem like some Vegas attorney is the news for (purported) crimes every week?

UNLV does its graduation in two parts. Half the school, including Boyd, got Sam Lionel, Esq. as a commencement speaker. The other half got Jimmy Kimmel. Another reason not to choose Boyd when selecting a law school–the administration doesn't care about you!

Why no love? Because they gave you a speaker that only one of you will likely be able to work for?

Kimmel is pretty selective regarding his writers.

I can't imagine that the commencement speeches were simultaneous. If you wanted to see Mr. Lionel, you could have seen Mr. Lionel, so please, no whining.

Regardless, I have three degrees and can't name the speaker for any of the graduation ceremonies.
