毕业典礼发言稿简短英语20篇

Now, look, I realize no one ever doubts I mean what I say, the problem occasionally is I say all that I mean. (Laughter.) I have a bad reputation for being straight. Sometimes an inappropriate times. (Laughter.) So here it goes. Let’s get a couple things straight right off the bat: Corvettes are better than Porsches; theyre quicker and they corner as well. (Laughter and applause.) And sorry, guys, a cappella is not better than rock and roll. (Laughter and applause.) And your pundits are better than Washington pundits, although I’ve noticed neither has any shame at all. (Laughter and applause.) And all roads lead to Toads? Give me a break. (Laughter and applause.) You ever tried it on Monday night? (Laughter.) Look, it’s tough to end a great men’s basketball and football season. One touchdown away from beating Harvard this year for the first time since 20xx -— so close to something you’ve wanted for eight years. I can only imagine how you feel. (Laughter.) I can only imagine. (Applause.) So close. So close.

But I got to be honest with you, when the invitation came, I was flattered, but it caused a little bit of a problem in my extended family. It forced me to face some hard truths. My son, Beau, the attorney general of Delaware, my daughter, Ashley Biden, runs a nonprofit for criminal justice in the state, they both went to Penn. My two nieces graduated from Harvard, one an all-American. All of them think my being here was a very bad idea. (Laughter.)

敬爱的老师，亲爱的同学们：大家好!

我叫___，今天竞选的是副班长这个职务。

今天是我第一次竞选副班长，也是第一次站在讲台上竞选。也许你们会很奇怪，我竞选的岗位居然是副班长。有的同学可能会暗自发笑：副班长不是应该有能力的人来担当吗?我知道我的能力不足，但是我认为我可以带领大家创造一个优良的环境，因为我不但有一颗积极向上、负责任的心，并且我热爱集体，团结同学，有较强的工作能力，所以我认为我可以胜任这个职务。虽然我各科成绩都很一般，但是我会努力做到优秀。

倘若我可以竞选成功，那么我会以身作则，做好大家的榜样，配合老师和班长搞好集体。不会偏袒自己的朋友，做到人人平等。我会在大集体中起到带头的作用，尽到自己的责任，不失职。我可以向大家保证做到以下几点：

1.遵守纪律，不乱丢垃圾，帮助同学，为班集体争光。

2.不摆班干部的架子。

3.积极帮助同学，不斤斤计较。

我的演讲完了，希望大家多多支持我!请投给我宝贵的一票吧!

谢谢大家!

That night I returned to Singapore. I didn’t think it was a big deal as my father was 73 years old at the time and old people were supposed to forgetful, until the next day when I called my mum. Over the phone she told me that on the flight to Toronto, three of them sat side byside, with my father sitting in the middle. All of a sudden, my father looked at my sister but totally couldnt recognize her, he asked my mum, "what is the name of this young lady and why is she so nice to us"? The moment when he said this, my sister burst into tears. At that time, we haven’t heard of a disease called Alzheimers, but we realized we were starting to lose our dad day by day from that turning point.

Fast forward to September 20xx, my father has been with a nursing home in Xiamen for close to 4 years. He is very skinny butstill survives, thanks to the professional care provided there. Over the years I flew back to visit him from time to time. He couldn’t tell my name but Icould tell that he probably knew I am someone important for him, as he always grabbedmy hands tightly.

Looking around me today, I think of the generations of Yale graduates who have come before you. Individuals who have been for something.

There are many names we know and others that would be less familiar – presidents and world leaders, artists and business executives, scholars and scientists.

Like them, I know you will heed the call to leadership and service and leave your mark on every realm of human endeavor.

That is Yale’s mission – that is what Yale is for.

As members of the Yale community, what do we believe?

We believe that facts and expertise, applied with creativity and wisdom, can transform the world.

We believe that education and research save lives and make life more meaningful.

We believe that diversity of thought and diversity indeed are essential to human progress.

We believe, most of all, in the boundless potential of human ingenuity; that together, we can solve great challenges and bring light and truth to a world in great need of it.

You have a world of opportunity in front of you, and it is for you to decide what to do with this platform that you’ve worked so hard to earn.

No matter what field you enter after graduation, you have the opportunity to use your gifts to make a difference in the world.

This can feel daunting, at the outset of your post-Stanford life. Some of you may know exactly what contribution you want to make in the world, while others may still be searching for your way to make an impact.

But whatever you do, whatever profession you pursue or journey you take – whether you become a teacher or a community leader, a lawyer or a physician, an engineer or an artist, or a scholar or a scientist, or a mother or father, a caregiver to the next generation – whatever you make of your life and the opportunities before you, I hope you will use your gifts to change the world for the better.

Having a platform also comes with a responsibility. It requires an ongoing process of self-examination and a continual return to your guiding values.

You may find, at times, that the path forward is unclear. Or you may realize, in hindsight, that you have made missteps along the way.

All of us make mistakes. I certainly do – just ask my wife and kids!

All of our lives require self-examination.

俗话说：航船不能没有方向，人生不能没有理想，而我愿成为中国共产党领导下的一名优秀国家公务员，认真践行“_代表”，全心全意的为人民服务。

I believe in our future

Honorable Judges, fellow students:

Good afternoon!

Recently, ther is a heated debate in our society. The college students are the beneficiaries of a rare privilege, who receive exceptional education at extraordinary places. But will we be able to face the challenge and support ourselves against all odds? Will we be able to better the lives of others? Will we be able to accept the responsibility of building the future of our country?

The cynics say the college students are the pampered lost generation, which would cringe at the slightest discomfort. But the cynics are wrong. The college students I see are eagerly learning about how to live independently. We help each other clean the dormitory, go shopping and bargain together, and take part time jobs to supplement our pocket money.

The cynics say we care for nothing other than grades; and we neglect the need for character cultivation. But again, the cynics are wrong. We care deeply for each other, we cherish freedom, we treasure justice, and we seek truth. Last week, thousands of my fellow students had their blood type tested in order to make a contribution for the children who suffer from blood cancer.

As college students, we are adolescents at the critical turning point in our lives. We all face a fundamental choice: cynicism or faith, each will profoundly impact our future, or even the future of our country. I believe in all my fellow classmates. Though we are still inexperienced and even a little bit childish. I believe that we have the courage and faith to meet any challenge and take on our responsibilities. We are preparing to assume new responsibilities and tasks, and to use the education we have received to make our world a better place. I believe in our future.

We must not, apologize for this but relish and champion it and find our own new contributions to this end. Yet at the same time, our world demands that we be more permeable as a university, more blended with life beyond the academy. The most striking physical manifestation of Columbia’s modern engagement with the larger world will our new Manhattanville campus, which is intentionally designed to be open and welcoming to the world.

Indeed, all of us feel the moral imperative to be working on solutions to global problems that frequently appeal to be beyond the grasp of sovereign governments and our own mostly diminished international organization.

Moreover to spend any time at Columbia is to be confronted with your sense of duty and purpose, along with your well-earned belief in your ability to make a difference.

This push and pull of truth-speaking and meaningful action is a tension endemic to higher education today and to the lives, you will live. The twin goals of serving society and the world while protecting our distinctive intellectual outlook are something we have always felt, but its centrality to our enterprise has only intensified over time. Happily, as we confront this dual agenda, there is a disheartening and indisputable reality. No group of graduates could be better equipped to navigate this precarious path than you.After all, you chose to attend Columbia at the beginning of a journey that one finds conclusion today and you elected to become part of a university that for 265 years has been distinctively defined by its commitment to addressing the insistent problems in the present.

Goodmorning/afternoon,everybody!A famous American poet says , "Life is short, study is long." Everyone should work hard and study well. Never waste any time. Now we are young, we have so many things to do. Youth time is like a happy bird. If it flew away, it would never return. Nothing is more important than time.

Today some students spend too much time enjoying their lives such as eating, clothing, traveling and so on. Others spend too much time reading some useless books. A lot of time has been wasted. They have no idea that waste of time means wasting of one’s life.

While we are young and full of energy, let’s study hard.

My speech is over ! Thank you.

You have earned the endorsement of those who have come before you and we expect that you will honor the legacy of improving the world by your contributions in [the] years to come.

And while it may not be easy to determine your passion or decipher your purpose, we will always be here to support you as you navigate this experience we call ‘life’.

We will always be here not just to tell you, but to show you that the only way around adversity isn not around it at all; it is straight through it.

So, expect adversity – expect adversity, excuse me. Invite it. And embrace it. Because it will be your greatest asset. It will help you be a better human being. It will teach you the same thing my mother taught me…that no morth and prosper!”

atter how bad you feel, that even at your lowest point, you got this.

Because Dukies…Dukies hear clearly, graduates, Dukies are like titanium. We might be dented on every side, but we are never crushed. And in the final analysis, we are “forever Duke”.

Sometimes it takes things falling apart, for better things to fall into place. Sometimes it takes the most uncomfortable path, to lead your life to the most beautiful place. Theres gonna be bad days, theres gonna be dark days, but youve gotta embrace it.

Because that pain is what makes you stronger. Failure is what makes you stronger.

You have to accept those down times, because once you realize those down times, are just as much part of life as anything else, youre able to strive again.

Youll never see the purpose of the storm, until you see the growth it produced. Youll never understand why you went through what you went through, until you see the strength, the power, the resilience that it built inside of you. Ask yourself why.

But this why is a better why, "Why am I doing this? Why am I failing? Why am I even getting myself in a situation where I could fail? Because I have a dream. Because I have goals."

The search for truth became its core animating idea and the American Universities flourished over time to institutionalize and idealize that way of life. Also, in 1919, at the more local level, on this campus, the new year-long required course for Columbia freshman has launched call contemporary civilization.

Though today, we know C.C. is the Genesis of the famed curriculum, then it was nothing more than a bold experiment in higher education. The objective reflected in the course name was to apply learning and reason derived from classic texts to the problems facing society in the aftermath of a cataclysmic war. The idea was to double down on the academic mission and it has made a difference as generation after generation has attested to its value in creating an open mind and intellect.

Both of these century-old intellectual innovations arose from the same sensibility. Both assumed that the best side of human nature includes the desire to learn and to live by the truth and to acquire and to create knowledge. And while our natural negative instincts activated by our fears, greed and lust for power sometimes divert us from that quest. A life worth living will only follow from a determined effort to engage with ideas at the most profound levels, even those ideas we dislike and firmly believe to be in error.

This time, your time presents the conundrum this is above all a moment when we must reassert our commitment to open inquiry, to reason and to the sanctity of knowledge and understanding. As was the case a century ago, these pursuits are increasingly out of step with the currents of the broader world, making it all the more essential that we express our devotion to that endeavor.

In all seriousness, the board back then made an inspiring decision to choose Washington. And anyone who thinks this school is in D.C. or near Seattle clearly hasn’t been paying attention.

It seems fitting that an institution named for Washington has played such an important role in presidential elections in recent decades. WashU has hosted a number of nationally televised debates, including the last one you saw in 20xx.

Hosting a presidential debate is an experience that few schools or students get. But I can’t stand here and tell you it provided a great civics lesson. I wish I could.

Instead of focusing on the critical issues facing the country, that debate was more about locker room talk and ‘lock her up.’ Lincoln-Douglas, I think it’s fair to say, it was not.

And that brings me to the topic du jour. It would be easy to blame the candidates or the moderators for the poor quality of that debate. But the problem runs much deeper.

ladies and gentlemen, good morning! i’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. man’s life is a proceof growing up, actually i’m standing here is a growth. if a person’s life must constituted by various choices, then i grow up along with these choices. once i hope i can study in a college in future, however that’s passed, as you know i come here, now i wonder what the future holds for me. when i come to this school, i told to myself: this my near future, all starts here. following i will learn to become a man, a integrated man, who has a fine body, can take on important task, has independent thought, an open mind, intensive thought, has the ability to judge right and wrong, has a perfect job. once my teacher said :” you are not sewing, you are stylist; never forget which you should lay out to people is your thought, not craft.” i will put my personality with my interest and ability into my study, during these procei will combine learning with doing. if i can achieve this “future”, i think that i really grow up. and i deeply believe kindred, good-fellowship and love will perfection and happy in the future. how to say future? maybe it’s a nice wish. lets make up our minds, stick to it and surely well enjoy our life.

中文大意: 女士们，先生们，上午好。我很高兴在这里为大家作一个简短的讲话。 人的一生是一个成长的过程，事实上，我现在站在这里也是一次成长。如果一个人的一生必须面临不同的选择，那么我就是伴随着这些选择成长起来的。曾经我盼望将来能上大学，然而那已经过去了，现在我在这儿，只想知道我的未来会是什么样的。 当我来到这所学校，我告诉我自己：我不久的将来都从这里开始。接着我要学习如何做人，如何做一个正直的人，并且拥有一个健康的体魄，能承担重要的任务，能独立思考，思想开放，心思缜密，有判断是非的能力，有一份不错的工作。 我的老师曾经告诉我说：“你不是在修补而是在创造;永远不要忘记你向人们所展示的是你的思想，而不是你的手艺。”我会将我的性格，兴趣爱好和能力一起融入到学习中去。在这过程中，我边学习边实践。如果我能实现这个“未来”，我就认为我真的成长了。并且我深信我的亲人，好朋友以及爱会使我的未来更完美，更幸福。 如何来解释未来呢? 也许那只是一个美好的愿望。让我们下定决心，坚持到底，那我们的人生一定能过得很精彩。

Dear friends:I am a rich girl, because I have a lot of treasure.

I believe I will be richer in the future., because the way of life is just like a journey of finding treasure .You never know when and where you can find them. You just keep going and they will be found in some time at some place. I will cherish what I have had and keep finding with my curiosity and passion .

I fall in love with reading, because I can get the treasure of knowledge .

I take part in activities, because I can find the treasure of cooperation.

译文一：

大家早上好!在这里演讲是我的荣幸,我很高兴与你分享我的话题。那么今天我想谈谈哪个更重要,时间或金钱。有些人常说:“金钱比时间更重要。“他们认为如果人们有钱。他们可以买衣服,食物,饮料,房屋、汽车、电脑等等。但我不这么认为。

因为当时间走了,我们不能把它弄回来。但是我们可以继续赚更多的钱。

我们可以利用时间来赚钱。但是我们不能用金钱来获得时间。失去的财富也许被行业所取代。失去了知识的学习。失去的健康通过节制或药物恢复,但失去的时间一去不复返。

我不能浪费我的时间赚钱。所以我认为时间比金钱更重要。我们必须充分利用我们的时间去学习和工作。每一刻在历史上是一个短暂的时间,珍贵而独特。

学生,你热爱生命吗?那么,别浪费时间,因为生命是由时间组成的。人生很长,如果你知道如何使用它。让我们节省我们的时间。

好的,谢谢你的倾听,仅此而已

译文二：

永不,永不放弃

我们经常听到人们说,“永远不要放弃。“这些可以鼓励的话语和文字的决心。一个人相信他们将继续努力达成他的目标无论他失败了多少次。在我看来,决心成功的质量很重要。因此,我认为我们应该永不放弃。

原因之一是,如果我们太容易放弃,我们很少会一事无成。我们不是不寻常的失败在我们第一次尝试新事物,所以我们不应该感到泄气和应该再试一次。此外,如果我们总是放弃当我们失败,我们将无法发展新的技能和成长的人。我们应该永不放弃的另一个原因是,我们可以从错误中学习如果我们做出新的努力。如果我们不试一次,我们学到的教训是浪费。最后,我们应该永不放弃,因为当我们努力达到我们的目标,我们发展的信心,这信心能帮助我们在我们生活的其他领域中获得成功。如果我们不挑战自我,我们就会开始怀疑自己的能力。

总之,重要的是,我们不放弃当我们努力追求目标。我们最终成功与否,我们将学习一些东西,我们学习将帮助我们变得更好,更自信的人。此外,如果我们放弃,我们不可能实现我们的目标,但如果我们继续努力,总有一个机会,有一天我们会成功的。

译文三：

亲爱的朋友:我是一个富有的女孩,因为我有很多宝藏。

朋友是我的财富。当我伤心时,我知道他们会抓住我的手,温暖我的心。他们告诉我友谊是多么神奇。

家庭是我的宝藏。是否时间找到我们远或者它让我们近,他们总是站在我身边。他们告诉我如何美妙的被你爱的人爱着。

经验是我的宝藏。无论好或坏的情况我不得不面对,它会告诉我正确的方法。它帮助我了解生活。

我相信我将来会更富有。,因为的生活方式就像一个旅程找到宝藏。你永远不会激励模型知道何时何地你可以找到他们。你继续和他们会发现在某些时间在某个地方。我将珍惜我所拥有和不断寻找我的好奇心和激情。

我爱上阅读,因为我可以得到知识的宝藏。

我参加活动,因为我可以找到合作的宝藏。

我喜欢音乐,因为我能找到美丽的宝藏。

生命是宝贵的,不是吗?我们怎样才能得到那么多美丽的和有价值的东西没有生命吗?

亲爱的朋友们,让我们感受到世界的心,带着太阳在你内心,和接触的梦想指引你你想去的地方。你将如何使我们的成功之路。这是生活的宝藏!

Saying goodbye to childhood,we step into another important time in the pace of young,facing new situations,dealing with different problems.....

everyone has his ownunderstanding of young,it is a period of time of beauty and wonders,only after you have

experienced the sour ,sweet ,bitter and salty can you really become a person of significance.thre time of young is limitted,it may pass by without your attention,and when you discover what has happened ,it is always too late.grasping the young well means a better time is waiting for you in the near future,or the situation may be opposite .

having a view on these great men in the history of hunmanbeing,they all made full use of their youth time ,to do things that are useful to society,to the whole mankind,and as a cosquence ,they are remembered by later

generations,admired by everyone.so do something in the time of young,although you may not get achievements as these greatmen did ,though not for the whole word,just for youeself,for those around!

the young is just like blooming flowers,they are so beautiful when blooming,they make people feel happy,but with time passing by,after they withers ,moet people think they are ugly.and so it is the same with young,we are enthusiastic when we are young,then we may lose our passion when getting older and older.so we must treasure it ,dont let the limitted time pass by ,leaving nothing of significance.

英语科代表竞选的优秀演讲稿 篇【2】

敬爱的老师、亲爱的同学们：

大家好!很是初一(4)班的,我想竞选的是英语课代表。

很荣幸能站在这里参加班干部的竞选，在此我对大家的支持表示由衷的感谢。 小时候，父亲曾对我说过：做事要脚踏实地，一步一个脚印的去做。”不止一次，站上讲台参加竞选，我深感机会的来之不易，需要好好珍惜。正是由于这种动力，当我站在这里的时候，倍感自信。 当然仅仅有自信是不够的，还要有一定的能力。然而农村的教育水平终究不如城里，我比起班里的一些同学还是有差距的。从不会到会，从不好到好的过程，就是凭借着自信和虚心的态度来认真完成每一件工作的。但“人非圣贤，孰能无过”，我也犯过错，但我敢于面对自己的错误，从同学与老师的 帮助中虚心的接受批评，并改正错误，而且决不容许自己第二次在同一地方跌倒。 今天我之所以在这里参加竞选，是为了锻炼自己的能力，提高自己的英语水平，同时也会让全班的成绩一同提高。?当然，我如果没有当选，我也不会懈气，我会更加努力的。 最后，我真诚希望大家相信我，支持我，给我这次展示能力的机会。我将在这一片属于我们的天空中挥洒春的汗水，为班级的明天绘出一幅美好的蓝图。

谢谢!

As you slowly open your eyes, look around , notice where the light comes into your room; listen carefully, see if there are new sounds you can recognize; feel with your body and spirit, and see if you can sense the freshness in the air. Yes, yes, yes, it’s a new day, it’s a different day, and it’s a bright day! And most importantly, it is a new beginning for your life, a beginning where you are going to make new desicisions, take new actions, make new friends, and take your life to a totally unprecedented level! You know all this is real as long as you are confident,passionate and committed! And you are confident, you are passionate, you are committed!

You will no longer fear making new sounds, showing new facial expressions, using your body in new ways,approaching new people, and asking new questions. You will live every single day of your life with absolute passion, and you will show your passion through the words you speak and the actions you take. You will focus all your time and effort on the most important goals of your life. You will never succumb to challenges of hardships. You will never waver in your pursuit of excellence. After all,you are the best, and you deserve the best!

As your coach and friend, I can assure you the door to all the best things in the world will open to you, but the key to that door is in your hand. You must do your part, you must faithfully follow the plans you make and take the actions you plan, you must never quit, you must never fear. I know you must do it, you can do it, you will do it, and you will succeed!

Now stand firm and tall, make a fist, get excited, and yell it out: I must do it! I can do it! I will do it! I will succeed! I must do it! I can do it! I will do it! I will succeed! I must do it! I can do it! I will do it! I will succeed!

大学生毕业晚会致辞（英语专业）

emily dickinson once wrote, "parting is all we need to know of hell."

“经历分别，足知地域的滋味。”——艾米利·狄更斯

谢谢学院和同学们给我这个机会来和即将毕业的14级同学们最后说上几句衷肠话语！在这之前，受到同学们邀请来参加今天的这个晚会，我十分乐意，因为14级的同学是我非常非常喜欢的一届学生，说什么都要来送大家一程的。后来听说要我作为教师代表做一个发言，我便开始忐忑起来。我不敢代表全院的教师同事来这里讲话，就代表自己来简单聊几句吧，至多，还可以代表一下亲爱的 杨老师，呵呵！

我们师生一场走到了今天，说真的，不知道该怎样表达我此时的心情。我想，就从两年前说起吧。当年04级毕业的时候，我和杨老师都参加了同学们的毕业晚会。杨老师和我悄悄地说：“在这以后，可能不一定来参加这种活动了，不过，06级同学毕业的时候，我会很愿意来的。”我和杨老师的想法完全一样，也很明白她这样说的原因，那就是，我们和你们这一级的同学感情最深，相处最融洽！

大家在一起的这些时光里，我们不仅深深接受了知识的沐浴，还浓浓地体验了师生共处的情谊。大家朝夕共处，情思相牵。课堂内，我们思想碰撞，热烈地进行思想的碰撞；课堂外，我们肝胆相照，交心诉情，成为了朋友。在我的日志里我发明了一个词，把自己当作你们的“师友”，总结的就是我们这样一种难得的关系和情谊。

不过，你们似乎也解透了我的心思，早就不把老师当外人，当成了自己的师长朋友，对吧？不是吗？我好像听说你们给我取了个特别的称呼，叫我作“志凌哥”是吧？瞧，我也挺喜欢这个名儿的，觉得很亲切！不过，我不像“潇洒哥”那样潇洒，也没有“小马哥”那样的帅气！呵呵！只是有时候，我会想，给大家上课的时候，你们是否会觉得是大哥在教训你，而不是个老师在教授你，会不会很不屑地嘀咕：“这哥们该歇歇了吧！”有时候，这种混沌的身份感也会在我上课的时候悄悄闪过，导致我总是不知道该怎样措辞和操用口吻。

我想，这种疑虑我没有机会再在你们这些同学的身上来发生了。因为，你们要走了。

同学们，你们要走了，我们作为老师的，既感到高兴，又十分地不舍。大家学有所成，有机会大施拳脚，开天辟地，我们深以你们为荣！但另一方面，你们即将中断几年相处的经历，离开这片青春记忆中最多彩的土地，想到这里，真是让我们又不禁叹息！

但是，不管怎么样，不论以后同学们去到哪里，希望你们不要背弃你们青春的誓言，不要忘记与你们甘苦与共的同学，不要忘记关心着你们的老师，不要忘记我们这片精致而浓情的校园，她是你们的母校！什么是母校？借用网络上的一句名言，“就是那个你一天骂他八遍却不许别人骂的地方。”这句话教育我们，不论你在被母校拥抱期间有着怎样五味杂陈的感觉，但是，这里毕竟是滋养了你四年的地方，你会永远爱她，不论她和你心中的距离有多么遥远。这里就是你们的家，这里的每一个师生，这里的每一棵花草树木都是你们的亲人！

XX级的同学毕业时，我为他们写了一首小诗，他们又回赠给了学院。今天，XX级的同学也要走了，我也想借此机会填一首小词送给你们。（对了，你们可知道我们民族大学的地名儿？不是一二一大街134号，她有个人文地名的，希望大家以后记住你们母校的这个名字“商山”。）

这首词的词牌名叫做《诉衷情》：

诉衷情

李志凌

商山一梦寻知道，

未觉英华度。

宅院书香墨醉，学海几轮回。

人依依，月朦朦，

师生袂，

更携丹瑞，更添朝晖，更得人生味！

把这首词送给大家，希望大家今后人生精彩，前程似锦！谢谢！

Over time, our great research universities drive human progress. They lay the foundation of life as it can be, more than capitalism, more than government policy. In life, personal and social ideals are everything or almost everything, and universities are all about ideas, so it works.

That is, it works provided certain conditions outside the academy are maintained. Universities are not invulnerable to the actions beyond their borders and they depend for their vitality on the societal respect for and commitment to what we do

Now, the enemies of the search for truth. What is important to realize is that the ideals that define the academy and guide the activity pursued herein, just like the primary freedoms we live in, do not come easily. They are in fact often counterintuitive. The embrace of freedom necessarily means you must accept a certain degree of unconformable disorder and even seeing chaos and sometimes unnerves the best of us.

There are many wise people who have commented on this fact of life. My favorite is a great justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr., who is setting forth the first articulation of the modern first amendment jurisprudence noted that the choice the openness required for the search for truth runs against human instinct. He bluntly explained how the impulse to persecute those we disagree with is actually quote “perfectly logical, given the natural wish to believe what we want to believe.”

Of course, some people say defending the indefensible is just politics as usual, but I don’t accept that – and I hope you won’t, either.

When extreme partisanship replaces reason, logic, facts and data, the country suffers – and special interests win. I’ve seen it time and time again, on issue after issue: gun violence, education, public health, and even one that threatens life as we know it: climate change.

Yesterday, I stood with WashU’s next chancellor, Andrew Martin, and the president of Ohio State University to announce that Bloomberg Philanthropies will help sponsor the first-ever climate summit of Midwestern universities next year right here on this campus.

We were joined by your mayor here, Lyda Krewson, because St. Louis, and WashU, has never…has always been a real leader on climate change.

Last year, this city was one of the winners of a climate competition my foundation ran. And we are now providing about $2.5 million of resources to help St. Louis increase energy efficiency and expand solar power – a goal that WashU is helping the city to achieve. Thank you very much.
