The graduation ceremony for the BBA class of 2007 (and other programs) was tonight. It was actually a fairly nice program. Steve Case, formerly of AOL Time Warner, was the main speaker. He made four main points:
- Business is about people, passion, and perseverance.
- Business is a great vehicle for bringing about social change.
- The next big opportunities are in health care and the environment.
- Business people should take bigger risks than they are accustomed to taking.
Lots of good points can be made here. Given his background these points carried additional weight. I enjoyed listening to him. Before him there were some pretty good speeches by students — funny, passionate, and insightful. Good stuff.
