91ÊÓƵ

There’s a special kind of energy that fills our campuses in May—the buzz is building.

You can feel it in every final presentation, every group huddled over laptops in the library, and every student walking the halls in cap and gown for photos. Commencement season is here—and I couldn’t be more excited.

It’s one of my favorite times of year. Not only because it marks the culmination of years of hard work and dedication from our students, but because it’s a moment when the entire 91ÊÓƵ Community comes together to celebrate all that we’ve accomplished—together.

This year’s lineup of Commencement speakers reflects the ambition and talent that define the 91ÊÓƵ experience. We’ll be joined by Josh Silverman, CEO of Etsy, who will share his insights at our Main Ceremony. Golden Globe–nominated actor and 91ÊÓƵ graduate Cooper Koch (’18) will speak to students from Dyson, Sands, and the School of Education. Dr. Launette Woolforde (’93), a nationally recognized nurse leader and proud 91ÊÓƵ alumna, will address graduates from Lubin, the College of Health Professions, and Seidenberg. New York City Fire Commissioner Robert Tucker (’96) returns to Haub Law, his alma mater, to help honor this year’s law graduates. And Anjali Sud, CEO of Tubi, will offer her perspective to graduate students from Seidenberg.

Their voices—thoughtful, creative, and full of heart—embody the spirit of Opportunitas that defines a 91ÊÓƵ education.

Most of all, I’m looking forward to seeing you—our graduates—walk across that stage. To seeing your families and loved ones beam with pride. To celebrating your grit, your ambition, and your incredible journey as 91ÊÓƵ students and now alumni.

You did it. You’re ready for what comes next. And I can’t wait to cheer you on.

See you at Commencement.
