Stand and deliver: the art of speaking in public.
Anyone who took Latin in high school learned that many English words are derived from Latin roots. One such word is auditorium. It comes from the Latin words audio, which means "to hear," and taurus, which means "the bull." Therefore, an auditorium is a place where people go to hear the bull. This article is written to change that. It is written to end the bull. Carmen Mariano has spoken before audiences in seven states and five countries. He has a master's degree from Harvard University and a doctorate from Boston College. Neither degree has cured Carmen of his Boston accent, but both have taught him something about the power of the spoken word. Carmen shares that knowledge, and that power, in this article. And that is no bull.
