Many expressed their approval of the message on Twitter:

This is awesome. I don't remember my HS commencement speech. I think I would remember this one. — S.L. Gray

Fantastic speech which sums up the neglected duty of so many Americans in 1 phrase: "Be worthy of your advantages." — Benjamin Yee

The greatest commencement speech ever. — Neil Raden

My new hero. Tells grads "You're not that Special ... when everyone gets a trophy, the trophy doesn't mean anything." — Jason Dobrolecki

The Boston Herald also reported that McCullough's words were very well received by attendees. The teacher, a father of four, admitted he's guilty of the actions he pokes fun at in his speech.

But near the end of the address he says, "The sweetest joys of life, then, come only with the recognition that you're not special. Because everyone is."

社交网站上正在热议美国波斯顿一所高中的毕业致辞，致辞的老师很直白地告诉学生说他们“并不特别”。

韦尔斯利高中的英语老师小戴维•麦卡洛告诉毕业生说：“你们并不特别。你们并不非凡。”他还引用实例为证：

“现在全美3.7万所高中至少有320万高年级生毕业。其中有3.7万名致告别辞的学生代表……3.7万名级长……9.2万名合唱团的男高音和女低音……34万大步走路的学生运动员……还有218万5967双羊皮靴。”这一演讲发表在《波士顿先驱报》上。
