Poll Results - Week of May 11

The results are in from last week's poll, and Wake Forest legend Arnold Palmer had a slight edge in the voting to determine who would be a desirable future commencement speaker.

Palmer received 32 percent of the vote, just beating out Tim Duncan who received 29 percent. Jim Grobe, who could certainly motivate would-be graduates with a pre-game-esque pep talk, finished third with 20 percent.

Alas, the Deacon received just 11 percent support to speak at commencement, while new Seahawk Aaron Curry pulled up the rear with five percent.

Vice President Joe Biden was the actual speaker at Wake Forest's commencement on Monday. His speech is detailed here.
