David Wallace Foster’s Kenyon College Commencement Speech is extremely successful for a multitude of reasons. It is not so much inspirational or revolutionary or epic, just simply honest. His speech is blunt about what people will face in their life after education. That adult life is boring, repetitive, trivial, tiring. Yet despite being adult life being unsatisfactory, Wallace always says it will only be those things because of your perspective.…

Dear Chuck Kraemer Scholarship Committee, Thank you again for your support in my academic journey. My first year at the University of Minnesota – Twin Cities was incredible. I learned a great deal, academically, socially, and personally. I was also given the opportunity to travel with one of my classes to France for a little over a week, which was absolutely wonderful.…
You do your absolute best and nothing less for this program. Although at times it may seem like students do not value all your hardwork and dedication just know that it does not go unnoticed by me. I wish to thank you for the countless opportunities you blessed me with. From the sole fact of just accepting me to the program, allowing me to go on the Junior Trip, and sharing memories that I will value for the rest of my life. I am deeply appreciative for it all.…
Memories of other students may be very foggy or have been erased away with time in your state of min. But do you remember someone with the name of Ryan Bartunek? He was quite the troublesome kid in your class! And there was one lesson to be learned from the young fellow; It was to never let a young man step foot near YouTube and put on a show called “Happy Tree Friends” where a blue moose character attempted to free his foot stuck under a thick tree log. Everyone was having a wonderful time laughing at the amount of pain and blood coming out from the young…

We truly appreciate the meaningful work that our teachers do every day, not just during this week where the accomplishments of teachers are celebrated in classrooms all across our district, state and nation.

Mr. Hallstrom, I would like to inform you about myself as a student in Beckman High School. Many of my previous teachers have referred to me as a person who takes tough courses and always tries to challenge himself. I always increase the hardship of my curriculum every year. Though having a slight problem with timing and due dates, I always get my work done no matter how big an assignment is. Throughout my freshman and sophomore year, I had participated in Track & Field as a triple jumper.…
Hi , Great to have you in class. Glad to have a student who is seeking a degree at both schools. I think you will get exposed to many different views. I really appreciate that, since you get a wider variety of sources. Throughout history, that has always been a catalyst for innovative thought!…
"The State of Our Union is strong, strong has been for the past seven, and will be for the year to come. The First Lady and I are wishing to last until eternity. I may not be present at this chamber a year from now, but I can not express how fortunate I am standing here as a human being, a citizen, an American with a Muslim father and a Christian mother, as well as the President of our beloved nation, the United States of America. America being a country, regardless of our appearance, nationality, race, color, or how we choose to worship or even how we arrived here, as you can see. Unlike my predecessor, myself and my administration accomplished much in the past seven years in our country' and around the world.…

Because of these things, you are the people who made the biggest impact on their lives.…
Dat To A Response of Steve Jobs Commencement Address One of the wonderful speeches that inspired a thousand graduating students of Stanford University belonged to Steve Jobs, who was the CEO of Apple Computer and of Pixar Animation Studio. In his famous speech, he inspired many college students and urged them to think deeply about their future by telling them three lessons from his own life experiences. Steve did an amazing job by breaking his lessons into three points: How to connect the dots, how to love, and how to deal with loss and death.…

Without you, we would not be standing on this stage today. I would like to start by defining the word “commencement.”…
