That was the pledge made by producers of the 88th annual Academy Awards when they announced that winners could list their “thanks yous” on ticker tape that would run live during the ceremony. Instead of subjecting audiences to endless lists of agents, producers, and supporting “teams,” speeches could be kept short, heartfelt, and meaningful. Producers clearly chose to focus attention on the message behind Lady Gaga’s nominated “Til It Happens to You.” No more boring speeches.

Everyone in the first group, she said, would be graded based on the total weight of the ceramic pots that they produced during the semester. The more pots they produced, the more the weight would add up; the heavier the weight, the higher the mark. They only had to produce a single pot, but their marks would depend 100% on the aesthetic beauty of their work. Every class, they were hard at it producing clay pots.
