미쉘 오바마, 대학 졸업 연설

 

Lady Michelle, First Lady Michelle Obama is also delivering a commencement address 대학 졸업 연설 this weekend. Today, she spoke to the first graduating class at the University of California, Merced, a campus that opened in 2005, and where students started a letter writing in video campaign to get her attention. Well, the First Lady urged graduates to give back to their communities and to give thanks to those who made their success possible. Here’s a portion of what she said.

 

“I grew up in one of those communities with similar values. Like Merced, the South Side of Chicago is a community where people struggled financially, but worked hard, looked out for돌보다 each other and rallied around모이다 their children. My father was a blue-collar worker, as you all know. My mother stayed at home to raise me and my brother. We were the first to graduate from college in our immediate family친족. I know that many of you out here are also the first in your families to achieve that distinction영예, as well. And as you know, being the first is often a big responsibility.”

 

But the First Lady also had some critical comments for the University of Chicago, and what she says was its lack of participation관여 in her neighborhood when she was a child. “I grew up just a few miles from the University of Chicago in my hometown. The university, like most institutions, was a major cultural, economic institution in my neighborhood. My mother even worked as a secretary there for several years.

 

Yet that university never played a meaningful role in my academic development. The institution made no effort to reach out to me, a bright and promising student in their midst, and I had no reason to believe there was a place for me there. Therefore, when it came time for me to apply to college, I never for one second considered the university in my own backyard as a viable확실한 option.”
