I'd Rather Be Mortarboarding

Mark Steyn:

Jonah, mortarboarding at Gitmo is when detainees are made to put on a cap and gown and listen to back-to-back commencement addresses by alternating Clinton cabinet secretaries and PBS hosts. Most of them crack during Janet Reno.

I’d say that by far, this is the definitive example of mortarboarding–with this a close second. But the competition is fierce, with numerous new potential contestants participating each spring.
