约翰霍普金斯大学2023届毕业典礼致辞

share
Good morning to our alumni and trustees, to our faculty and staff, to all our parents, family members and friends, to our soon to be revealed distinguished speaker, and most especially to our graduates. Welcome under perfect skies and with bursting hearts to the 147th Johns Hopkins University commencement for the great, great class of 2023. To our graduates, congratulations. I suspect that there has never been a graduating class that didn't feel that getting to this moment wasn't a monumental achievement. This place is there, i say, demanding. We are a different kind of party school. But as much as this day is a moment of achievement, there is no denying that your class has confronted and surmounted a set of challenges that truly sets you apart. Despite covid, despite forced exile, despite a host of restrictions and regulations on your return, you did it. You excelled in so many different endeavors and succeeded in crafting a full and rich Hopkins education. And in turn, the university recognized your trials and tribulations by depriving you of sterling brunch, making you wait three full hours for Meek Mill to show up at spring fair. I did that. And then abruptly changed the name of the FFC for no good or apparent reason. This is the applause line for your university central administration. Too soon. In thinking about your commanding record of achievement, we must first start with your many individual successes. As the course is completed, the exams written, the Prizes received and soon, very soon, the degrees earned. But today, today is also a time to recognize your collective achievements, the things you did together, the performances of musicals and plays, the weekly tutoring sessions of Baltimore city schoolchildren outside Levering, the undefeated season of our woman's soccer team, and your classes support for the owners of their Jordanian halal futruck when they needed it the most. So it's this latter set of achievements, the product of shared endeavor, that I want to touch on with you today. Now, these moments of collective achievement can arise in a number of different ways. Sometimes they occur when one solitary individual whose vision, eloquence and courage will inspire others, even whole nations, to action. Hold that thought. At other times, however, collective action happens more spontaneously, provoke not by a single magnetic leader, but by a cascade of interconnected decisions made quietly, often without inducement or prospect of recognition, by people simply doing the right thing at the right moment.
