Macalester College on Instagram: "We’re excited to announce that Bob Mould, the trailblazing guitarist, singer, songwriter and activist, will be the keynote speaker for the 2025 Commencement ceremony. Mould will also receive an honorary degree. Mould formed the punk rock band Hüsker Dü with Grant Hart and Greg Norton during his first year at Macalester in 1978. With the band’s rapid success, he left the college during his final year to go on tour and helped cement the Twin Cities’ reputation as an epicenter of alternative music in the 1980s. Mould has also been an outspoken advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community and other social justice issues in both his music and press interviews. We look forward to welcoming him back to campus next month! #HeyMac #Mac2025"

It's terrific to see Bob getting this level of recognition and opportunity to address future generations in such a forum.

Thanks for sharing!

Probably not what Bob envisioned would happen when he wrote "Disappointed".
