The Transcript:

I think because working life is such a huge part of your life, I’ve felt that the University has been home for me.  Home is a welcoming place, home is a place that it’s safe to be, it’s a place of memories, it’s a place of adventures, it’s a place to grow, and I think that has been shaped me in many, many ways.  My dream for anybody who comes here, for the next 50 years, is that this becomes a place where you’ll come for your education.  During your time here may you have memories of amazing experiences.  I wish for personal growth for faculty and staff, that they can continue to motivate students, that they can make a huge discoveries that will benefit mankind.  It probably sounds a bit idealistic as I say this because everything changes and has so much in this 50 years, but for the next 50 years, let’s be the destination.
