This is one of the best commencement speeches I have ever heard and some needed truth for our students.

  1. i finally watched the whole speech after blogging on it! it’s too bad CNN made it sounds like there “should” be outrage and picked the one little part that appeared negative. it was actually really great!

  2. “climb the mountain to see the world, not so that the world can see you.” & “Selflessness is the best thing you can do for yourself” … these are pithy and poignant quotes which have intensely powerful meaning for today’s generation.

    Thanks for sharing, Benjamin. Good work dude.
