I don't mean to diminish President Obama, but title isn't everything, and does not command a supremacy of stature in itself. Courage holds a higher place, at least in my opinion and I would hope in the opinions of others as well. I hardly think, incidentally, that you would put President Bush on a pedestal above everyone else on account of the fact that he held the same office. Anyway, no one is contesting the fact that the office of the Presidency carries with it a very high prestige. That said, presidents of the United States have routinely delivered commencement addresses to colleges across the United States in the past, including colleges of significantly lesser renown, and the Class Day held by Columbia College is the equivalent of a commencement ceremony at those other undergraduate institutions.

Even the most respected senators and authors aren't in that category. My argument applies only to the President of the United States and, perhaps, to a handful of other people of comparable stature.

No, he wasn't the President, but he was certainly a figure of high national stature-- far more then, in fact, than now. And Alexandr Solzenitzen delivered one of the most famous speeches of his life at a Class Day for Harvard College. I don't think it would at all be inappropriate. Well, McCain came.

You get one degree, and it's from Columbia. It's signed by the presidents of both institutions, but Barnard's president signs in her capacity as dean within the university. This has no bearing on which school you might prefer to claim as your alma mater. I just want to correct a rather significant misunderstanding on your part. Actually, you don’t.
