like to emphasize how happy we are as a university community to congratulate our graduates and welcome their family and friends on such a special occasion on behalf of all of the faculty and staff at Idaho State University I would like to say to our graduates that we are very proud of you you represent the very reason why our Institution exists you are the focal point of all of our efforts although I see hundreds of graduates here today I know that each one of you has an individual and unique story each and every one of you has been on a journey that brought you to this point no doubt you faced a few roadblocks along the way but you persevered and arrived at a very important milestone your academic achievements the degree or credential you earned will Now launch you onto A New Path with new destinations your future is bright you are not here by chance or coincidence you are here because of your hard work grit and tenacity Abigail Adams once said learning is not obtained by chance it must be sought for with ardor and diligence I also know that many of you did not arrive to this point alone but with the help and companionship of others along the way today we celebrate you and them so for all of you take a moment and enjoy this achievement you did this we want you to take time to celebrate your success and revel in having arrived at such an important destination however I remind you that the road does not end here in fact the very event where we celebrate the conclusion of this academic journey is literally called commencement meaning a new be beginning believe me that was not a mistake life is full of countless Journeys and days destinations what is truly special about today is that you go forward or commence On A New Path with the power and transformational influence of Education as Oprah Winfrey said education is the key to unlocking the world a passport to freedom I remember when I received my first passport flipping through all the blank pages and imagining all the Exotic locations I would travel to and the stamps that would cover the pages as a result I believed the number of stamps I obtained on those pages would represent how effectively I used my passport that is not all that different from your education you were leaving this ceremony today with a new passport and countless blank Pages how are you going to use it what stamps are you going to receive what are your future destinations for some your passport will take you on to additional schooling and ISU would be happy to have you back for others the stamp will represent a new career a job advancement or personal growth and accomplishment the Destin ations are endless the point is not necessarily where you go as much it as is that you use your passport to Journey forward collect as many stamps as possible use your education for good to transform the world as it has transformed you this is the power and transformational nature of Education it is about bettering your life you also have an opportunity to make the world a better place and you do that by using what you learned here do not leave empty pages in your educational passport lastly remember that it is the process of achieving your education or journeying through life that brings the greatest satisfaction it has been said life is a journey not a destination your educational journey is now part of who you are and what you are to become next and remember as an ISU bangle you have been taught to let your voice be heard to use your actions to create impact and your experience to set an example and to do all all of this with a mighty Roar congratulations and Roar Bengals Roar it is now my extreme privilege to introduce your student speaker najme deani Taft as I stand before you today A Rush of emotions fills my heart it's a surreal moment because this marks my first and last graduation ceremony although I spent half of my life in different academic institutions I never had a chance to experience this smone but today I'm here because of someone very special my daughter as my constant source of encouragement and support she was the one that insisted that I apply to speak today and she was the one that encouraged me to keep going during my studies I'm sure you all have such precious people in your life that fuel your hope and motivation as well throughout our journey here at idol State University we all face challenges yet it was the Bengal Spirit a spirit characterized by resilience tenacity and determination that empowered us to move forward let me share a bit of my story when I first arrived on campus four years ago I felt in over my head lost uncertain and scared I'm sure Among Us graduating today are those that had to balance school work and family responsibilities or those who struggled to adapt to the new environment for me as a single mom coming from a distant continent balancing the demands of PhD program in English working as a teaching assistant and caring for my child without family and friends fear and doubt consumed me initially there were days when the pressure seemed too much to wear when the walk to the evening classes was too cold and my child was so scared when I got home there were days when I felt so guilty to leave to work while she was so sick I would frequently ask myself is that really worth it but I was pulled out of these dark Moments by my friends here at IU my unexpected second family we all owe much to this community that lovingly supported us believed in our success and became our safe space whether it was a comforting hand from a dear friend a word of encouragement and understanding from our professors or the invaluable Services provided by our University this community lifted us these pillars of support were constant reminders that we were not alone on this journey so let's take a moment to express our deep gratitude for the privilege of being part of idol state University and to proudly embrace our Bengal Spirit we are now on the brink of new adventure it's time to summon the courage to step beyond our comfort zone and like The Fearless Bengal tiger charge forward as we journey into Future Let's embrace our Ambitions wholeheartedly acknowledge our fears and doubts yet refuse to be hindered by them now that I look back I can't believe I did it Bengals we did it also remember our journey impacts others let's recognize the profound influence we have on those around us and the World At Large we can make this our mission to inspire uplift and Empower one another and leave behind a legacy of courage and compassion for generations to come to the graduating class of 2024 I offer my heartfelt congratulations may Futures be bright your dreams be Limitless your resilience follow the Bal spirit and your rower be heard far and wide thank you and now I would like to invite our Board of truste member Miss Cali roach to the podium to say a few words thank you njma that's a hard act to follow hello Idaho State class of 2024 congratulations my name is C roach and I serve on the Idaho State Board of Education and I'm also a graduate of Idaho State University it is my honor to be here today and to be able to offer you my congratulations once again I know that many of you are first in your families to graduate from college what a tremendous accomplishment that is for you both person personally and professionally and if you are a parent what it also means to those who depend on you it is estimated that 60% of jobs now require some form of postsecondary degree or credential what you have done these past few years is invested in yourselves and I guarantee your investment will pay dividends for instance research shows that those of you have have earned a bachelor's degree will earn $1 million more in income over the course of your career because you now hold that certificate the certificate or degree that you earned here at ISU will open opportunities that you would have never imagined otherwise 40 years from now you will look back on a career filled with wonderful experiences and friendships and you will be amazed and proud of what you have accomplished both professionally and personally I speak from experience when I say that I earned my bachelor's degree at another Idaho institution Lewis Clark State College in Lewiston that coupled with the master of science I later earned here at Idaho State set me on a career path that I ne could have never imagined otherwise I am here today speaking for you because I made that investment and you'll be able to do the same thing and give to your communities for those of you who are in are the first in your family to graduate I know that taking that first step was not easy but when you enrolled at ISU you each made a solid investment in yourselves and set the stage for professional success long-term personal happiness and fulfillment people who have college degrees and certificates live longer healthier and happier lives I have personally experienced how a college degree can change your life both my grandmother and my mother graduated from college my mom went on to earn a master's degree and was a teacher and professor at an Eastern Oregon Community College they are my role models and I wanted to follow in their footsteps the odds are pretty good that you have set an example here today that your children will one day follow finally I'd like to ask a favor of each of you please join the State Board of education's effort to encourage high school graduates young adults and even older adults to think about taking the next step share your story with them about your experience here at Idaho State while you're at it remind them about the governor's program Idaho launch and how it provides up to $18,000 for students to receive training in an indemand career here in Idaho we need all the higher education ambassadors we can get to help us spread the word about why it is so important important for our citizens to attain a degree or certificate our employers and our estate are depending on you to help us in this effort on behalf of the Idaho State Board of Education I thank you and wish you the very best as you go out and make your way in the world and please do not forget to encourage others your lead and always remember to roar bingles roar thank you Callie it is our honor to have you with us AE graduates we are thrilled to be celebrating you and your accomplishment and while today is about you I think you would agree with me that many of us would not be where we are today without the support and guidance that we've received along the way from teachers beloved mentors at this time I would like to express sincere appreciation to the faculty and instructors of idah State University with all the Idaho State University faculty members and ameriti faculty members please stand so we can acknowledge you thank you and while we're standing can I
