The Issue: President J. Wade GIiiey did students a favor by asking first lady HIiiary Rodham-Cllnton to speak at commencement. President J. Wade Gilley announced a nice surprise last week when he said he has asked first lady Hillary Rodham-Clinton to speak this spring at commence ment. Of course, Rodham-Clinton still has not responded to the invitation, but at least Gilley already has made an effort to attract a speaker that would make com mencement memorable. Gilley apparently made the offer to Rodham-Clin ton Sept. 29 when she campaigned on campus for her husband, more than a month before the election. Hopefully she was impressed enough by her recep tion to want to return. There's no doubt that Rod.ham-Clinton is a dy namic lady, even ifyou don't agree with her politics.
