saak State unique is our proximity to the state capital the capital fellows program offers Sac State grad students a year-long salaried staff position in the legislature or Judiciary the best thing about it has really been understanding the policy but also learning the politics that's what has made the capital fellows program such a unique experience for me sax States 305 acre campus lies on the Western Bank of the American river which not only provides spectacular views but also offers immediate access to study the health of Northern California's waterways through saak state ferally recognized Serious Program I think any class where you can get outside you can learn differently when you're moving around and there's a different dynamic between the instructor and students 76 it's

Sacramento [Applause] State today we celebrate the remarkable achievements of a record n 9,730 [Music] graduates that's right and these graduates join our Hive of over 280,000 alumni who have entrusted their academic journey to our Sacramento State and I know we've got a few of those alumni in the house because I've been hearing them cheering so if you're alumni and you're in the room can you make yourself be heard [Applause] so what I want to do today is take a moment to share just some brief words of advice to you and my message today is simple lead leadership begins here lead and Lead now not tomorrow it's your time take over and Lead don't wait for your turn don't wait for your seat at the table make your own table create your own company start your own social movements build your own nonprofits run for political office write that book take that leap the world is not led by the passive it is led by those who take on the mantle of leadership and when there isn't a mantle they build their own mantle because they refuse to settle you see we Le we need your leadership now because you are graduating at a pivotal time in history you have inherited a world that is far more pernicious and has more complex problems than those who came before you you inherit a world that is more divided by Wars tax economies politics culture and Technologies a world that is quick to disregard to judge to vilify and to cancel and you represent what can be a light in that Darkness we need you we need your empathy your passion and your discipline because you bring something different something unique to this world that's what it means to be a Sacramento State graduate you are exceptional you are the best of the best you're not just getting your degree from any old institution you're getting your degree from Sacramento [Music] State and you have been educated in one of the most diverse institutions in the nation and in an environment that truly cares about the local local community even more we are the one and only Public University in the state capital of the fifth largest economy in the world so what you do here can go on to change the world so with that in mind we congratulate all of those earning degrees from colleges and universities around this the country this time of year and we root for them authentically but we also have to remember this that they not like us they not like us they not like [Applause] us cuz you see what distinguishes a sax State grab is not just our strategic positioning in the capital or our diverse environment or our community uh and our our commitment to it it's our gritty Drive our grind our desire to succeed saak state is renowned for providing a pathway for the ones who've been doubted the ones who've been held back the ones who've been held down who others said they can't they aren't and they won't and then saak State gives you an environment where you can show the world that nothing can stop you and that's a differentiator between our grads and grads from anywhere else because they not like us they not like us they not like [Music] us you are Victors no matter what the world has thrown at you you have shown that you have the will to thrive no one has more grit no one has more determination and this matters because the issues that you will take on as leaders in this world are not easy ones but if they were easy then anybody could solve them but they need a sack State grab to do so now Sacramento state is truly transforming the face and the Heart of Sacramento this Arena floor is filled with remarkable graduates who exemplify what it means to be a and among our graduates here today are a number of different communities of people that we should take a moment to recognize for example if you

college to Sacramento [Applause] State now we also have a unique demographic of people who is here today who graduated during covid-19 and those individuals did not get to walk across the stage no you can stand up it's okay they did not get to walk across the stage let's give them their du okay so wait a second I just said we have people who've never had a chance to cross the stage of graduation can we give them more noise than that [Applause] and lastly if you are a student parent or other caretaker can you stand or raise your arms or otherwise be [Applause] recognized and as they're standing if you're one of their L ones if you're one of the children or the babies we want you we want to see you on the Jumbotron raise your hands all those prises out there that's that's that
