Williams Says Being College Dropout is Huge Regret

NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams spoke to GWU graduates on Sunday. He spoke to estimated crowd of 25,000 people on the National Mall.  At the close of his speech he implored the graduates to improve the country. “You don’t actually have to build a rocket and take us into space but please, take us somewhere,” he said. “Please keep us moving, push us, lift us up, make us better.”

Willams never graduated from GWU. He attended community college, transferred to Catholic University and then moved on to GWU.
