December 2020 All-University Celebration Congratulations from the Chancellor

Congratulations to the Class of December 2020. One year ago, at the beginning of this academic year, none of us would have anticipated these would be the circumstances under which we would be celebrating your accomplishment. You should be enormously proud of what you have achieved. Our university community is made up of students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends who know what it means to be determined and resilient in the face of obstacles. We strive toward our goals by adapting and innovating. We reach out for help when we need it and support one another when we see someone who could use a helping hand. That is what we mean by “In Our Grit, Our Glory.” I could not be more proud of what you and all of our graduating students have accomplished during this unprecedented time of COVID-19. You have earned all the glory that comes with it! Commencement is a truly special time. As the first in my family to earn a college degree, I cherished my commencement ceremonies. We look forward to having you participate in person with us in one of our ceremonies in the future—whatever will work for you and your families to celebrate this degree and to celebrate this moment in person in our tradition at Nebraska. RONNIE D. GREEN You are part of a historical graduating class. You’ll always hold a special place in the heart of this great land-grant university and for me as your chancellor. We believe in you and all you can do with your Nebraska degree!

Ronnie D. Green became the University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s 20th chancellor on May 8, 2016. Green received bachelors and masters degrees in animal science from Virginia Tech and Colorado State University, respectively. His doctoral program was completed jointly at the University of Nebraska and the USDA-ARS U.S. Meat Animal Research Center in animal breeding and genetics in 1988. Chancellor Green is married to UNL alumna Jane Green and they are the proud parents of four children, all graduates of the University of Nebraska–Lincoln.

2 Commencement Speaker A Conversation with Warren Buffett

Warren Edward Buffett is a Nebraska native and an American investor, a philanthropist, and the chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway. He is considered one of the most successful investors in the world. Buffett was born in Omaha, Nebraska, in 1930 to Howard Homan Buffett, UNL class of 1925, and Leila Stahl Buffett. His parents met at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, and his father Howard graduated in 1925 and served as editor of The Daily Nebraskan. He is the youngest of three children, with sisters Doris and Roberta. In 1952, Buffett married Susan Thompson. They have three children: Susan, Howard, and Peter. Buffett attended elementary school in Omaha, then junior high school and high school in Washington, D.C., while his father served as a congressman from Nebraska. He developed an interest in business and investing in his youth, entering the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania in 1947 before transferring to and graduating from the University of Nebraska in January 1951 with a bachelor of science degree in business administration. He continued his formal education at Columbia University, earning a master’s degree in economics in 1951. In 1956, he created Buffett Partnership, Ltd., and his firm eventually acquired a textile manufacturing firm called Berkshire Hathaway, WARREN E. BUFFETT assuming its name to create a diversified holding company. Buffett has been the chairman and largest shareholder of Berkshire Hathaway since 1970. He has been referred to as the “Oracle” or “Sage” of Omaha by global media. Berkshire Hathaway has grown under Buffett’s leadership with investments throughout the years in Coca- Cola, Apple, American Express, Bank of America, and other well-known firms. It also owns Nebraska Furniture Mart, Borsheim’s jewelry store, See’s Candies, and GEICO insurance. Buffett is a notable philanthropist, having pledged to give away 99 percent of his fortune to philanthropic causes, primarily via the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. He founded The Giving Pledge in 2009 with Bill Gates, whereby billionaires pledge to give away at least half of their fortunes. He is an avid Husker fan and notable alumnus of the University of Nebraska–Lincoln.
