COMMENCEMENT 2022 3Welcome from the President
Commencement is the high point of the academic year and has always been a special day at Tufts. It gives me
immense pleasure to be able to celebrate this day with you in person and welcome all our graduates and their
family and friends for this annual celebration.
After a period of rigorous study, intellectual pursuit, and personal growth, our students stand ready to graduate
from their respective academic programs and this great university. Today, we celebrate their achievements and
recognize all those who have helped make this day possible.
I do not need to remind you of the challenges these past two years have brought for our graduates. They have
navigated changing guidelines and varied forms of instruction; practiced personal discipline amidst restrictive
recommendations; and overcome bouts of loneliness and mental fatigue. However, through it all, they have
shown grace, flexibility, and strength, which have led them to the triumph of this day.
As we confer their degrees today, it is important to recognize the role of all those who have supported our
students to reach this moment of success during a particularly trying time. The family members, friends,
faculty, and staff who have all worked together to ensure that these graduates were well-equipped to traverse
the myriad challenges in their path during their entire time at Tufts deserve our thanks and appreciation.
Our graduates today arrived at Tufts with diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences. As they pursued
rigorous courses of study, they also acted as agents of social change who have left their mark on this university.
As they depart our campuses, I am confident that each one of our graduates will positively impact our society
and the world.
Finally, I would be remiss if I did not acknowledge the high standards today’s graduates have set during their
time at Tufts. Their resourcefulness in solving challenges and navigating unforeseen circumstances, caring
for and picking each other up, and fighting for the rights of all those who are marginalized in our society has
set the bar high for future generations of students. We are proud of you and how you have lived your lives as
members of the Tufts community.
Congratulations to our graduates. I wish all of you the very best and look forward to welcoming you back on
campus as alumni.
Sincerely,
Anthony P. Monaco
President
