#1 In Mispronouncing Names

It’s the time of the year where we see a lot of videos from different college and High School graduations. Some make us cringe, some make us cry, but this…

University Of Birmingham Hold Degree Congregations

Over 5000 graduates will be donning their robes this week to collect their degrees from The University of Birmingham. A recent survey suggested that there are 48 graduates competing for every job.

It's the time of the year where we see a lot of videos from different college and High School graduations. Some make us cringe, some make us cry, but this one will make you laugh your ass off. Watch as this professor keeps mispronouncing names.

MISPRONOUNCING NAMES

It can be hard, some people have names that are hard to pronounce if you haven't read them before. I get it, I constantly have this issue, not sure if it's some people have tough names or I am just horrible with them. Anyway, this happened at the Jefferson College of Nursing.

Since the video has come out, the school has issued an apology to the students and their parents. You know you were mispronouncing stuff if you had to issue an apology afterwards.

JEFFERSON COLLEGE OF NURSING VIDEO:

Need some laughs this morning? HERE is the video:

Honestly, I feel bad for the person who had to read these names, where are all the Smiths or Johnsons? I will say, it's hard to back the lady reading after you hear her get the name Thomas wrong. There were some easy names that she clearly couldn't figure out.

REMEMBER THIS GROUNDS FOR DIVORCE FROM LAST YEAR?

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
