Testimonials
Mr. Rather was our best speaker to date. I received nothing but compliments about Mr. Rather
and I am so pleased with the magnitude of responses. The Celebration Dinner was a wonderful
and successful event, and it is due in large part to the fantastic keynote speech delivered by Mr.
Rather. He was absolutely the icing on the cake for all the ACC members to cherish forever.
Please thank Mr. Rather for honoring us with his presence and giving us his valued perspective
on world events, like only he could do, with style and grace.

Thank you so much for all of your assistance in facilitating Mr. Rather being able to speak at our
event. He was accommodating, eloquent, and welcoming to everyone he made contact with.
I didn't anticipate anything different! He certainly is a great ambassador for many things,
especially southern grace and charm. The evening was a great success and the room was
taken by Mr. Rather’s speaking!

-Texas A&M Commerce
I had so many people come and tell me after your speech how great it was and how happy
they were that you came to our town. You made a positive impact on the people of Monroe
and the students at ULM. Your speech was insightful and entertaining, but your humble presence
said more than you could ever say in words. I just want you to know that you are still changing
lives for the better. Keep up the good work!
- University of Louisiana at Monroe
Your speech to our campus community was educational, entertaining and inspirational. Your
legendary experience and knowledge provided a great analysis and look at such a dynamic
issue. Our campus is still abuzz following your visit, with students remarking on how much they
enjoyed and learned from your speech. We are all grateful for your commitment to public
service and the inspiration you have provided to all of the American University Community. You
inspired all in attendance to pursue a more just world, working to hold all people accountable
for their actions.
-American University
Your presentation was entertaining, insightful and wise. I have heard nothing but good things
about the evening. I especially appreciate the remarks you directed to our students about
following their passion and preparing themselves to excel. I also gained a great deal from your
assessment of news as entertainment and the risks we incur from the current trends.

Our event last night was a great success and that Mr. Rather was fabulous! He was so nice and
his speech was perfect. He actually just called my office to thank us and let us know what a
great time he had in Greenville. How nice is that! We just love him. Everything was great. Thanks
again for all of your help in getting him here.
-Hughes Agency
I just wanted to share with you how much we enjoyed having Dan Rather as our guest last week.
He is gracious, funny, sensitive, and of course, so articulate. His personal stories and his
assessment of his profession were touching and inspirational and provided our audience with
much to consider. I noticed many members of our audience nodding in agreement with him.
Mr. Rather's generosity in terms of his time and his expertise extended beyond the dinner, the
presentation, and the Q & A to a session with more than 60 high school journalism and
broadcasting students. He answered every question patiently and thoughtfully. They were
thrilled at the opportunity to be in the same room with such an icon.
At the dinner, Mr. Rather talked politics a bit with our guests. He was warm and friendly and
attentive to every person in attendance. Thank you so much for helping us bring Mr. Rather to
The Star Forum.
-Chairperson, Cherry Hill Public Schools
The event was great! Dan Rather was a very good choice to bring as a speaker. Thank you both
for all your help!
-The University of Texas Pan America
We would like to thank Dan Rather again for the excellent presentation you gave at our Annual
Convention last month. His comments were timely and well received, especially his response
during the question and answer portion. Many attendees wrote on their evaluations that his
presentation was the highlight of the convention. It was gracious of him to spend time with our
president and board directors after his presentation. Our convention is only as good as the
programming we provide, and our convention this year was enormously successful. Thanks
again for his part in making it happen.
- California Credit Union League
I cannot tell you what a distinct privilege it was for us to welcome such a distinguished journalist
as Dan Rather. His knowledge, intellect, and passion for his work are unmatched by any. I was
most touched by his humility and graciousness. He gave everyone equal opportunity and did
not miss acknowledging any of our team.
Dan's presentation was extraordinary. He kept the audience captivated for more than an hour
and a half, then spent even more time with us at the VIP reception and autograph & photo
session. Needless to say, the evening was a total success.
-Challenge Tomorrow
Mr. Rather is a delightful, insightful, generous man. We very much enjoyed having him come to
our campus!! He was an excellent choice.

-Miami University.
Dan Rather was a perfect gentleman, by the way, and his speech was packed. Those who are
government policy wonks loved it, others were enthralled. The reaction was very positive.
-Miami University
It was fantastic. I have been in my respective position as lectures chair for almost 2 years and
have never seen a turn out of that magnitude at any lectures event. Dan Rather was endearing
and so genuine and I have even more respect for him as a person as a result of meeting him.
Our students, faculty and staff raved about the lecture!
