Class of 2007, a few final words as you take your leave.

First, let me thank you for coming to Rutgers – and for sharing your talent, your intellect, and your passion with us. Our community is the stronger for it, and I hope you will remain connected to Rutgers in the years to come.

Second, I speak for every one of the faculty and staff in wishing you success as you make the most of your Rutgers education. May the degree you received today continue a lifelong journey of discovery.

Finally, I invite each of you to pause for just a moment, take a deep breath, and savor this moment in your life. Never take this accomplishment for granted. Savor your success, right now, as a graduate of this great university. You have done well, and we are truly proud of you. Thank you, and congratulations!
