9 A.M. Commencement Ceremony

Welcome! I’m chair of the History department and currently, the president of the faculty union on our campus. Today, on behalf of all the faculty, I welcome the platform party, our distinguished guests - especially our graduates – and, even more importantly, their loved ones. It is truly my privilege to say a few words as we mark our graduates’ important transition to the next phase of their lives – whether that be starting careers, furthering professional instruction, or pursuing advanced academic work.

I want to speak first to the graduates themselves. Congratulations! You did it! We are so pleased for and so proud of you – trust me, the faculty know more than most what a sometimes-challenging road it is to pursue and complete this kind of academic and professional training. You came to Millersville in the midst of a global pandemic, the consequences of which we still don’t fully understand, which continues to disrupt our expectations, and forces us to transform in more ways than I can list. And yet here you are, at the end of that winding journey, ready to take your place in the bright future you’re building by your own efforts and to make our communities better and more vibrant through your contributions. So in the midst of today’s speeches and celebrations, I invite you to take a moment for yourself, to savor the satisfaction and sense of accomplishment that should come from crossing this stage. You persevered, and now here you are, about to be recognized for your achievements.

But the next thing I want to tell you is thank you. Thank you for the trust you’ve placed in the faculty to educate and train you. Most of your professors are here at Millersville because we value teaching, and enjoying the opportunity to work with you – in the classroom or the lab, on the stage or in the studio, out in the field – this work animates our creative energies, inspires us to achieve, makes our professional lives more meaningful, and gives us personal fulfillment.  Being your teachers and your advisors and your mentors so often is the best part of our work.  Thank you for letting us have that.

And that’s the final thing I want to say, to our graduates’ guests – it has been the joy of a lifetime to work with your loved ones.  Each unique, all incredible – we are so lucky that we get to see their imaginations on fire, their grit and determination in action, their blossoming performances. Our students inspire us and they fill us with hope for our world. We send them off with some regret, because frankly we hate to see them go, but with more pride and pleasure, because we stand ready to admire and applaud them as they carve out the lives of meaning and purpose that you – and we – wish for them and have helped to train them for.

Okay, I have one final, final word. To the graduates. Go get ‘em. 

Hello President Wubah, cabinet members, trustees, esteemed guests, and most importantly, the graduating class of 2025.

First, on behalf of the entire Student Government Association and the entire student body, I want to congratulate you - go ahead and give yourself a round of applause! It is an absolute honor to be standing before you today as you experience the joy and excitement of graduating from Millersville University. Even though I am not graduating alongside all of you, I am incredibly proud to celebrate this milestone with you. 

Today marks the peak of years of hard work, perseverance, and growth. I want to take a moment to reflect on what these last years at Millersville have meant. They were filled with long nights studying for exams, those unexpected fire alarms at 2 a.m., and, of course, the Sheetz runs that somehow turned into second dinners. 

But beyond all the little moments, what truly defines your time here are the friendships you've built — the people who stood by you during all those club meetings, spontaneous adventures, and moments when you needed a reminder that you could make it through. These are the friendships that will last a lifetime, with people who have seen us blossom into who we are today. And cheering you on during all this time are your families and loved ones, who have been supporting you and believing in you all the way to this incredible accomplishment. As you look back on your time here, you have to give yourself some credit for making it through all the exams, assignments, presentations, and the Millersville parking, which alone deserves a standing ovation. 

Being involved on campus wasn’t just about holding titles or attending meetings — it was about finding your people, finding your passion, and sometimes just finding free pizza. Every event you showed up for, every time you said “yes” to something new — that’s what built this amazing community we’re proud to call ours. 

And speaking of community…, when you first arrived at Millersville, you came with the goal of furthering your education. But you leave with something even greater — a community. A family. No matter where life takes you — whether it’s graduate school, your first job, traveling the world, or carving out a new path — you will always have a home here among the students, faculty, and staff of Millersville. 

As you move forward, remember that the world is waiting for the energy, talent, and passion you carry. You have already made a difference here — and now, it’s time to show the world what you're made of. 
 
Congratulations, Class of 2025 — we are so proud of you. Go out there and make your mark.

We have a tradition of giving here at Millersville University.  Since 1866, each graduating class has promoted a philanthropic spirit by providing students an opportunity to leave their legacy at the University they call home.  The graduating class of 2025 continues this tradition by giving back to our alma mater through the programs, departments, and teams we love and that have had a positive impact on our Millersville experiences.  In appreciation and recognition of our educational experience at Millersville University, the Class of 2025 resolved to contribute to the Millersville University Scholarship Fund and other programs of personal significance. 

Good morning everyone. 

To President Dr. Wubah, members of the Board of Trustees, faculty, staff, and families it is an honor and privilege to speak on behalf of the College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences and the Lombardo College of Business to celebrate this momentous occasion with the graduates of 2025. I am so incredibly grateful to Millersville University for allowing me the opportunity to share some reflections with you. 

As we mark this day, I couldn’t help but reflect on my journey to getting here. Being that my degree is in writing, I had so many options to choose from. However, each time I tried my able best to sound academic or intellectual – my thoughts just kept going to a conversation with my father that I had as a little girl. So, I thought I would share that with you today. 

When I was a child, I remember complaining to my dad about how I wish I could trade places with our family dog because he had an easy life. To be fed, to sleep all day, and just no responsibilities whatsoever. 

This is probably the first and only time my father forcefully raised his voice at me. 

“Meg!” He cried. “How on earth would you want to be a dog where you depend on other people 24/7 to take care of you? Where you have no freedom, autonomy, or choices? You have a human brain, creativity, and a bright future ahead of you. Don’t be so ungrateful. Work hard, get a good education, and make a difference. Remember education is the one thing they can’t take away from you.” 

That “lecture” stayed with me. From a man who dedicated over 30 years of military service in the United States Air Force, obtaining an associates degree, a bachelor’s degree, and two master's 
degrees… he lived his beliefs. He was also the first in his family to get a college education, so his convictions came from a deep place.

Those convictions transferred to me and collectively, the reason as to why I am speaking with you today.

I would not be a good English major if I did not mention a quote from James Baldwin – one of the world’s greatest literary minds. “Those who say it can’t be done are usually interrupted by those doing it.” This one sentence says so much. It highlights the importance of pursuing one’s dreams or goals because it is possible to achieve the seemingly impossible. It also stresses action. 

So, my fellow graduates, you are here because you pursued a goal. You are here because your actions brought you to this arrival point. You are here because you valued your education. You are here because you made an investment in yourself and your future.

Just like the period that ends a sentence, graduation marks the end of an academic journey. It is now time to write the next chapter of your life by using the one thing they cannot take away from you. 

Trustees, faculty, proud families, cherished friends, and most importantly our graduates, this is a magnificent morning! Look around you. Feel the energy in the air, thick with accomplishment and brimming with possibility. Today, the vibrant tapestry of Millersville University gains a brilliant new thread – each and every one of you.

It is with immense joy and profound pride that I salute you at this Spring Commencement. This is a day we have all anticipated, a culmination of late-night study sessions fueled by caffeine and determination, of insightful discussions that sparked new ways of thinking, and of moments of both challenge and triumph that have shaped you into the remarkable individuals you are today.

As you embark on this exciting new chapter, the concept of excellence will undoubtedly be a guiding star. Excellence isn't simply about achieving a perfect grade point average, though your academic achievements are certainly to be celebrated. True excellence, the kind that leaves a lasting impact on the world, is about the relentless pursuit of your best self in every endeavor. It's about the commitment to continuous growth, the courage to embrace challenges as opportunities for learning, and the unwavering dedication to making a meaningful contribution, no matter the scale.

Think back to your time here at Millersville. Remember the professor who ignited a passion within you, the classmate who offered unwavering support during a difficult project, the moment when a seemingly insurmountable problem yielded to your persistent effort. These experiences, big and small, have woven into the fabric of your being the understanding that excellence is not a destination, but a journey – a continuous striving for improvement, integrity, and impact. Carry this understanding with you. Let it inform your decisions, fuel your ambitions, and inspire you to reach for heights you may not yet even imagine.

Now, as you step out into the world beyond these familiar halls, you do so at a pivotal moment in history. We are navigating a complex landscape shaped by rapid technological advancements, evolving social dynamics, and pressing global challenges. From the intricate dance of international relations to the urgent need for sustainable solutions, from the ongoing quest for social justice to the transformative power of artificial intelligence, the world you are entering is dynamic and demanding.

Some might view these complexities with trepidation, perhaps even a sense of being overwhelmed. But I urge you to see them not as insurmountable obstacles, but as fertile ground for innovation, for leadership, and for positive change. Your education at Millersville has equipped you with more than just knowledge within your chosen field. It has fostered in you critical thinking skills, the ability to analyze complex issues from multiple perspectives, and the capacity for empathy and collaboration – precisely the qualities needed to navigate these currents and contribute meaningfully to shaping a better future.

Engage with the current affairs that shape our world. Stay informed, not just through headlines, but through thoughtful analysis and a commitment to seeking truth. Be active participants in the conversations that matter. Use your voice, your skills, and your passion to advocate for the values you believe in. Remember that progress is rarely linear; it requires courage, resilience, and a willingness to engage in difficult dialogues with open minds and respectful hearts. Your Millersville education has provided you with the foundation to be informed, engaged, and impactful citizens of the world. Embrace this responsibility, and let your actions be guided by a commitment to creating a more just, equitable, and sustainable future for all.

Finally, as you prepare to turn the page to this exciting new chapter, I want to leave you with a story. It’s a simple one, but one that has resonated with me throughout my own journey.

Imagine a young sapling, planted in fertile ground. It starts small, seemingly fragile against the vastness of the world around it. It faces scorching sun, strong winds, and periods of drought. There might be times when it bends, when it seems like it might even break. But if it has strong roots, if it receives the nourishment it needs, and if it possesses an inherent resilience, it will not only survive, but it will also grow. It will reach for the sunlight, its branches will extend, and it will develop a unique shape and character, shaped by the very challenges it overcame.

Your time at Millersville has been like nurturing those roots. You have absorbed knowledge, you have forged connections, you have developed strength through overcoming academic hurdles and personal growth. The challenges you faced – the demanding coursework, the moments of self-doubt, the balancing of responsibilities – these were not meant to break you, but to make you stronger, to deepen your roots, and to prepare you for the winds that you will inevitably encounter.

As you leave this campus today, you are no longer saplings. You are young trees, your roots firmly planted, ready to branch out and make your mark on the world. You will encounter new challenges, new storms. There will be times when you feel the pressure to conform, to take the easy path, or to doubt your own capabilities. But remember the resilience you have cultivated here. Remember the lessons you have learned. Remember the strength of your roots.

And just as that young sapling eventually blossoms and bears fruit, so too will you. Your contributions, your innovations, your acts of kindness, and your pursuit of excellence will enrich the world in ways we cannot yet fully imagine.

Graduates of the Class of 2025, the future is not something to be feared, but something to be shaped. You are equipped, you are capable, and you are ready. Go forth with courage, with integrity, and with an unwavering commitment to making a positive difference. Embrace the unfolding now, knowing that the tapestry of your life is just beginning to be woven, and you hold the threads in your capable hands.

Congratulations, Millersville University Class of 2025! We are incredibly proud of you, and we eagerly await the remarkable things you will undoubtedly achieve.

Now, go out there and make your mark!

President Wubah, members of the Council of Trustees, graduates, and distinguished guests, I am deeply honored to be called upon to deliver remarks at today’s Commencement Ceremony of the College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences and the Lombardo School of Business. My relationship with Millersville University began exactly 60 years ago, in the Spring of 1965, when I first visited here after being admitted to what was then Millersville State College.  I was to learn that I had more in common than differences with my classmates and upperclassmen, at least 99.5% of whom were Caucasian in 1965-69. For example, I discovered that like myself most MU students of that era were also the first in their families to attend college and shared the belief that our college degrees would open doors of opportunity for us that had not been available to our parents and other relatives and likely would not be available to most of our peers who would not have the good fortune to attend college. The better I got to know my classmates over time, the greater my empathy for them grew. As it turned out I was to remain actively affiliated with MU for 45 years, 4 as an undergrad who majored in philosophy, and 41 as a philosophy professor and an administrator in various capacities. I also found the love of my life here in my sophomore year, Sharyn Heckman, who has stayed married to me for 56 years because she is a saint! 

Let me now express my heartiest congratulations to those who will have degrees conferred upon them today as newly minted graduates of Millersville University, as well as to their parents, spouses, and other family members and their close friends who have supported them in this phase of their life’s journey. I am confident that like myself you have made friends for life and found mentors in MU professors and/or staff who you’ll always remember and some with whom you will remain in contact long into the future.  Like tens of thousands of MU’s alumni, I can attest that your preparation for advanced study and/or your future professional and civic undertakings is second to none. Because of my MU baccalaureate education, I was well prepared for graduate study in philosophy, and law school, and later to receive and accept invitations to be a visiting scholar in political and linguistic philosophy at Harvard University and a visiting lecturer at the University of Vienna in Austria. 

I also learned to be a leader while I was an MU student, which I have no doubt has been the case for many of you.  The dominant issues of national concern in the mid to late 60’s were the Civil Rights Movement that focused on addressing the injustices of legal and de facto racial segregation, and the Vietnam War that was a proxy for the Cold War between the East, led by the former Soviet Union, and the West, led by the United States. I co-founded and for its first two years headed MU’s Black Students Association that focused on removing racial barriers to equal opportunity at MU. We were allied with the Students for Progressive Action which had a broad interest in matters of social justice but for which opposition to the draft and the Vietnam War were its primary foci. These two issues were divisive on a national scale during my college years and into my young adulthood. Yet I never felt that our nation was on the brink of abandoning the perpetual quest of striving to achieve a “More perfect Union” as specified in the Preamble of the US Constitution. On the contrary, we believed that the attainment of equal opportunity regardless of race would be an affirmation of a more perfect union.  Nor did our activism entail the abandoning of the rule of law, due process, equal protection of the law, or the separation of powers, all Constitutional mandates and indispensable to a democratic society. Unfortunately, in the past 110 days or so it has become apparent that these Constitutional mandates may no longer be regarded as sacrosanct. In other words, it’s one thing to pursue disagreements over policies within the framework of rules set forth by the Constitution; it’s quite another to ignore or blatantly violate those rules to secure one’s policy ends. Moreover, such disregard suggests that the ends sought lack broad acceptance, or a preference for authoritarian or shock and awe governance. Examples include but are not limited to what should be taught and excluded from K-12 and higher education curricula and their libraries, the curbing of academic freedom and free speech on college campuses, and whether DEI and Wokeness offend America’s greatness. Those and other divisive changes by fiat (i.e., executive decrees by a single individual) profoundly matter.

Two well-known quotes came to my mind as I reflected upon the contemporary political and cultural rifts in this nation.  The first was one of the many eloquent quotes of President Abraham Lincoln, he made this one during his first campaign for public office in the state of Illinois, namely “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” As you know, the Civil War would occur years later. The second one was from an ordinary man who was viciously beaten by four LA police officers for driving while intoxicated. His name was Rodney King. Unknown to those police officers, the beating was filmed by a witness who would subsequently turn over his recording to a local television station KTLA that broadcasted it. Upon the acquittal of those four police officers for police brutality four days of rioting ensued resulting in the deaths of 63 people and 2,383 injuries. Instead of the police abuse victim identifying with the rioters, King advocated a peaceful end to the conflict.  His notable reaction was “People, I just want to say, you know, can we all get along? Can we all get along? Can we stop making it horrible for the older people and the kids?” 

That brings me back to you, today’s graduates of the College of the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences and the Lombardo School of Business. With the exception of the natural sciences, it is MU’s primary home for its liberal arts' curricular offerings. Thus, virtually all graduates of this college today will receive liberal arts degrees.  Business and graduates from other MU colleges were required to complete a core requirement in the liberal arts albeit less extensive to fulfill the requirements of their baccalaureate degrees. “The liberal arts refer to a broad, non-vocational education focused on developing general intellectual and analytical skills, encompassing subjects like literature, history, philosophy and the sciences. It aims to foster critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving abilities, rather than preparing individuals for specific jobs.” To be sure I wish extraordinary success to all of you in achieving your career and financial goals. However, I firmly believe because of your working- and middle-class backgrounds as well as your first-rate academic preparation that you are as well-equipped as any to restore empathy to the calculations of political policymaking to ensure that this nation continue its unending endeavor of becoming a more perfect union, indivisible and with liberty and justice for all.

Again, as a Marauder for life I was deeply honored to receive the invitation to address this commencement gathering today.
