Rutgers snagged Snooki to address its student body, but some universities aren’t able to make the Jersey connection.

For those still wanting to stir up parental tuition fury and a hunk of publicity, the following speakers might be available for $32,000.

Their speeches, if tailored to student body issues, could leave parents wondering why they coughed up the IRA for their kids’ BAs.

  • 1) Nadya Suleman (a.k.a. “Octomom”): Careers in childcare

  • 2) Kate Gosselin: Careers WITH childcare

  • 3) Bernie Madoff: How to finance your college education

  • 4) Lindsay Lohan: Inexpensive ways to accessorize

  • 5) Mel Gibson: First impressions and phone etiquette

  • 6) Chris Brown: Secrets to relationship building

  • 7) Kim Kardashian: How to break into film

  • 8) Charlie Sheen: Turning failing into winning
