  • Assistant Commandant Honors Fall Grads by NPS Public Affairs
    (U.S. Navy photo by MC2 Chablis J. Torrence) Assistant Commandant Honors Fall Grads by NPS Public Affairs NPS conferred advanced degrees upon hundreds of honored graduates during its quarterly Graduation Ceremony, Dec. 19. Uniquely, though, this Fall Quarter’s graduates were recognized in split ceremonies in the Barbara McNitt Ballroom due to renovations in King Auditorium. NPS President retired Vice Adm. Ronald A. Route welcomed the graduates, their families as well as attending faculty and staff to the ceremony. He shared with the audience that the ballroom they sat in housed NPS’ first graduation ceremony in 1949, and was also the location of the institution’s official dedication in 1952 by Fleet Adm. Chester Nimitz and Secretary of the Navy, the Honorable Dan A. Kimball. Route went on to offer his recognition of the university’s “citizen students” for their accomplishments both academically on campus, and in the community off campus. He then turned the podium over to commencement speaker Assistant Commandant of the Marine Corps Gen. John M. Paxton Jr. Paxton is the second highest-ranking officer in the Marine Corps. Paxton referenced iconic moments in history, where critical decisions made by leaders, like those he hopes the graduates will become, made the difference between success and failure. “In a world of dynamic change, in a world where the tyranny of time and the tyranny of distance are working against us, what we really need are thinkers and problem solvers who are leaders themselves.” – Assistant Commandant of the Marine Corps, Gen. John M. Paxton Jr. “In a world of dynamic change, in a world where the tyranny of time and the tyranny of distance are working against us, what we really need is thinkers and problem solvers who are leaders themselves, or whose idea can capture the attention of a leader … that’s why you are here,” said Paxton.
