From a news release from Trine University, Angola, Ind., announcing a commencement speaker and honorary degree recipient:
"[This basketball coach's] respect for learning and his ability to instill character in his players make him an inspiring speaker. . . . He has not only lived an exemplary life, but has played a pivotal role in the development of many outstanding young people. His reflections on leading a life of impact and meaning will be well received by our degree candidates, their families, and our community, and we are pleased to host him on our campus."
