Paul Simon gave a performance at Brandeis University's main commencement ceremony and received an honorary degree.

Following the main ceremony, he also spoke at the School of Creative Arts commencement and performed "The Boxer" during the main ceremony.

His participation came after a student-led Facebook campaign to have him sing at the graduation. 

Paul Simon delivered two memorable performances for the campus audience on May 23. These included performances for the School of Creative Arts graduates at the mini-graduation ceremony at the Spingold Theater Center. Earlier that day, Simon had inspired the entire Class of 2010 with his performance of his hit song "The Boxer" at the main graduation ceremony at Gosman.

In that interview, Paul Simon discusses Lady Gaga as an example of how pop music in the modern era has shifted:

On pop music today vs. songwriting
Simon explains that much of contemporary pop — with artists like Lady Gaga — places a strong emphasis on performance, spectacle, and visual presentation, compared with earlier eras where the focus was more on writing and crafting songs.

Performance over songwriting
He suggests that in Gaga’s generation and in mainstream pop culture, the show and the persona often take center stage, rather than traditional songwriting craft. The way music is packaged and presented now plays a huge role in its impact.

This doesn’t mean he dismisses artists like Gaga entirely — rather, he’s observing a shift in how music is made and appreciated, comparing today’s pop emphasis on performance with older traditions of composition.
