Kalamasnooze: Student Dozes Off During Obama Speech

It seems not everyone is riveted by the oratory skills of President Barack Obama. Speaking at the commencement ceremony for Kalamazoo Central High School in Kalamazoo, Michigan. KCHS was the winner of the 2010 Race To The Top challenge hence the visit from President Obama. He also met with graduating seniors in a surprise meet-and-greet before the ceremony [via]. We have a KCHS alum on staff, Kim Bellware, who claims, "The reason he was falling asleep is probably because they finally managed to ban the air horns, pots and pans and beach balls that are usually at K-Central's commencements. My graduation was as rowdy as a Redwings game, minus the beer." Pomp and circumstance!
