Colgate Commencement Speakers

By Chris Ulanowski

Hamilton, NY – Former ABC news anchor Bob Woodruff survived serious brain injuries that he suffered less than a year-and-a-half ago when a roadside bomb nearly killed him while reporting in Iraq. Woodruff and his wife, Lee, were the commencement speakers at Colgate University where both graduated more than two decades ago.
The tow urged Colgate graduates to open to life's surprises. WRVO has this sampling of what they said.
