Cicely Tyson said something nice about me.

To President Frederick, the Board of Trustees, faculty

and staff, fellow recipients of honorary degrees, thank

you for the honor of spending this day with you.

And congratulations to the Class of 2016!

Four years ago, back when you were just freshmen, I

understand many of you came by my house the night

So I decided to return the favor and come by yours.

To the parents, the grandparents, aunts, uncles,

brothers, sisters, all the family and friends who stood

by this class, cheered them on, helped them get here

Let's give them a big round of applause, as well.

I'm not trying to stir up any rivalries here; I just

Some of you were up all night making sure your

Some of you stayed up too late, ended up at HoChi

And you've all worked hard to reach this day.

You've shuttled between challenging classes

You've led clubs, played an instrument or a sport.

That spirit of achievement and special responsibility

has defined this campus ever since the Freedman's Bureau

established Howard just four years after the Emancipation

They created this university with a vision -- a vision of

uplift; a vision for an America where our fates

would be determined not by our race, gender, religion

or creed, but where we would be free -- in every sense --

to pursue our individual and collective dreams.

It is that spirit that's made Howard a centerpiece of

central part of our larger American story.

This institution has been the home of many firsts: The

But its mission has been to ensure those firsts

Countless scholars, professionals, artists, and

leaders from every field received their training here.

The generations of men and women who walked through

this yard helped reform our government, cure disease,

grow a black middle class, advance civil rights, shape

The seeds of change -- for all Americans -- were sown here.

And that's what I want to talk about today.

As I was preparing these remarks, I realized that

when I was first elected President, most of you --

the Class of 2016 -- were just starting high school.
