To the editor of the Villanovan:

My name is Carmen Gentile, alumnus and correspondent for United Press International in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

I would like to provide you with an opportunity to react to the decision by Villanova administrators to anoint Big Bird actor Caroll Spinney this year’s graduation speaker.

If you have a comment on the matter, please contact U.S. Editor John Hendel in Washington at [email protected], or call (202) 898 -8015.

Regards,

Carmen Gentile
