Matt Damon uses tech, sci-fi to deliver powerful message to MIT grads

One of Massachusetts' native sons, Matt Damon, returned on Friday to deliver the commencement address to MIT's graduating class and the university's choice of speaker couldn't have been more appropriate

Aside from his early life in the state, there are his Hollywood roles in Good Will Hunting as a janitor at MIT, and more recently as a scientist stranded on Mars. And although Damon attended (but didn't graduate from) Harvard, his Ivy League experience and unique connection to the state resulted in a powerful speech that's worth anyone's 20 minutes
