Per MSNBC, Hillary Clinton was a surprise guest at the Yale graduation ceremony on Memorial Day. She picked up an honorary Doctor of Laws degree to go with the one she earned 36 years ago, and spoke briefly to Law School graduates later in the day.

Graduating students (and at least one proud parent) twittered their excitement and observations.
