View entire speech at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-CeCP5qWLo Myrlie Evers-Williams: "This graduation celebration serves as a timely reminder that change is a natural component of evolution, and how this proud University has evolved in these past 165 years. You stand on the foundation that was solidly formed by the founders of this University and has been continually reinforced by those who followed them, determined to carry the torch into the future. And we know that at times torches fade. They never go out, but they surge again with a new vibrancy. And I believe that this class, perhaps more than any other and I'm sure there are those who disagree with me, but you have everything in front of you for a good and a solid future. And I ask you the question, but what will you do, individually and collectively, to take advantage of all of it, and make everything -- in quotes -- good?"
