  • Commencement Committees
    Commencement MAY 2021 WELCOME FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Friends: It is with a mixture of happiness, pride, and confidence that I write to you on this occasion of the culmination of your years of effort and achievement at the University of Connecticut. Many times in the past 12 months I have had reason to recall the observation of the Greek Stoic philosopher Epictetus: “Happiness and freedom begin with one principle: some things are within your control, and some are not.” This is a principle we can truly say has been affirmed for everyone in the world since the spring of 2020. Certainly, it is a principle that was not lost on you, as you responded to events outside your control with the creativity, determination, and perseverance that came to characterize UConn during this time. Great challenges beget great achievements, and your achievement as students here shine as brightly as any in the 140- year history of our University. You now continue your journey in the world not just prepared, but empowered: empowered by the knowledge that you have it within yourself to face any obstacle, and overcome it. This is a special class, its ranks filled with scholars of all disciplines and leaders on issues from climate action to racial justice. One of the pleasures I look forward to in the coming years is learning of how you will apply your UConn experience to transforming our world – hopefully, learning about it from you in person, on visits back to your alma mater. As we move closer toward a return to a semblance of life as we knew it before the pandemic, I know it will become easier to put the last year into the context of your entire time at UConn.
