UPDATE:
Michele Obama has responded to the protests by deciding to move her speech to May 16 at what is called a "senior recognition day" ceremony rather than giving it during the graduation ceremony a day later.
Note that the article also says that the combined graduation ceremony idea has been dropped as well.
If attendance is not mandatory it will be interested to see how many kids show up since most will probably be more interested in playing video games and the like. In any case I think she made the right decision. Good on her.
