You ever get away with something you never thought you would get away with and then you are like, "Now what?"
The email I got:
To make things easier on our emcee, please send me your speech/presentation/performance title and a script for how you'd like our emcee to introduce you by Monday, August 13.
My response sent today, August 13:
“Ladieeeeeeees, and Gentlemen! We are so glad you are here, and that you will be students at the University of Northern Iowa. Our first two speakers are Nicole Bishop and Dr. Douglas Shaw. Nicole Bishop is a chemistry major at UNI, who is not afraid to speak to you candidly and plainly. She has ambitions, hopes, and fears, and is thusly like all of us. Dr. Shaw is a professor of mathematics at UNI, who has also taught our Cornerstone course. He had ambitions and hopes, and is now consumed by his fears, and is thusly like all of us will someday become. You will note that we are passing out index cards. If you have any questions to which you want frank answers, write them down and pass them forward at any time. They are going to tell you a fascinating story, and then answer your questions. Now, please give the BIGGEST LOUDEST welcome you can to Nicole and Doug! YAYYYY!”

Kristen is going to dig this. Thank you so much!
