It was a wonderful honor to deliver the commencement address yesterday at my alma mater, the University of California, Berkeley. The last time I stood on a Berkeley commencement stage this was in 1998, when I received my Ph.D. in civil engineering. In many ways, it felt like coming full circle. This special university is where I earned my undergraduate, master’s and doctoral degrees — and most importantly, it’s where I began to understand what was possible. Congratulations to the UC Berkeley College of Engineering doctoral graduates. The world needs you — your ideas, your leadership and your sense of purpose — more than ever. #BerkeleyGrad#RiceUniversity
Yesterday, @RiceUniversity President @RDesRoches made his way back to campus to give the keynote speech at our doctoral ceremony! He shared some words of wisdom for our new Ph.D. grads! 🎓🎉 #BEGrad26#CalGrad

Cool opportunity for Moncks Corner native & Berkeley HS grad DJ England-Chisolm. Representing MTSU at C-USA media day. Much expected from a guy who is one of the fastest in college football.
England-Chisolm, so mature talking about his season & Rick Stockstill pumps his tires.
It is graduation season! Did some arts & crafts with my dear friend Pam, who is the mom to be. We decided to make up for a blank cap in undergrad with these beauties for the Berkeley grad degree #berkeleygrad#haasewmba

“There’s so much in this world worth fighting for,” student commencement speaker Jacob Dadmun said, “and at the end of my life I want to be able to tell my children I did something to make their future brighter, like my parents and grandparents did for me.” #CalGrad#BerkeleyGrad
