Biography|Brian S. Tyler — The May Morning He Spoke to SMU in Moody Coliseum
kevin
On Saturday 13 May 2023, at 8:30 a.m., SMU held its all-university commencement in Moody Coliseum.
The featured speaker was Brian S. Tyler, chief executive of McKesson Corporation.
The arena sits at 6005 Bush Avenue in University Park, on the SMU campus.
He had been CEO since 1 April 2019, the same day the company made its Las Colinas campus in Irving the official global headquarters.
By 2023 he also sat on the SMU Cox Executive Board.
The university announced him on 3 April 2023 and streamed the ceremony.
The student paper recorded that he told the class to keep their values when the unexpected arrived.
That is the public Texas moment that can be pinned without guessing a coordinate for a private office campus.
McKesson's Irving headquarters at 6555 North State Highway 161 is a two-building site the company bought in 2016 and occupied as HQ from 2019.
OpenStreetMap does not yet carry a reliable building outline for that campus, so this pin stays on the coliseum where the speech actually happened.
Moody Coliseum is a public arena.
A visitor can walk Bush Avenue and see the same doors the class of 2023 used.
The man at the lectern was an Oakland-born economist who had spent twenty-six years inside one wholesaler.
The place is the gym, not the headquarters cafeteria.
