message: Not sure why he claims to be the 1987 UC Berkeley valedictorian. First, I can't find any evidence that UCBerk. nominates a valedictorian separate and distinct from the University Medal. It seems like the University Medal winner gives a valedictory address. If this is the case, Jenkins claims - and the 2003 SF Gate article which published them - are patently wrong. And obviously so. The University maintains a list of the University Medal winners going back to 1871. Jenkins is not on that list. Further, it doesn't appear that Jenkins received any awards or honors while at UC Berkeley. 
There is another possibility. Jenkins could have received a department citation from the english department. Records of departmental awards are not available on UC Berkeley's website. However, this is a slim possibility. In any case, Jenkins certainly misled people by claiming he was the UC Berkeley valedictorian. This is true even if he was awarded some department specific award.

replies: text: There's also a follow-up from Stereogum in which it clarifies that he was selected by faculty to give a "valedictory address" for just the English department. That seems to be the root of the misunderstanding. Beginning (talk) 19:01, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
