friends who've been with you this entire time many members of this class chose to participate in the senior class gift tradition by donating the amount of money equivalent to their year 20 and 21

that fau offers unique education opportunities to students of all ages our fall graduates range in age from 18 to 77.

the senior scholars in our ceremony please stand so we can show how much we admire you we also take great pride in students that achieve incredible things at an exceptionally young age five of this afternoon's graduates are only 18 years old they graduated from fau high school in may and now just seven months later they're receiving their bachelor's degrees three more are only 19 one of whom is receiving a master's degree these students graduated from fau high this past spring that is made possible by the fact that fau high's dual enrollment program which offers gifted students the opportunity to study for both the high school diploma and university degrees at the same time i'd like to ask these eight impressive young scholars to stand for a well-deserved round of applause [Applause] many fau employees are also students who are working hard toward their degrees while simultaneously earning a living and caring for their families if any fau employees are in this ceremony i'd like to invite you to stand now so that your family your co-workers and everyone here can recognize you and your accomplishments during the pandemic fau employees graduates this year marks the 60th anniversary of the founding of florida atlantic university that is when the state legislature granted funding to build florida's fifth public university right here in boca raton just three years later in october of 1964 president lyndon b johnson stood in front of the breezeway with a brand new library the same one that we have today and declared fau officially open the university had gotten off to a rather rough start so it was a much anticipated day just earlier that fall as we were beginning to open for the very first time with students hurricane clio hit south florida the storm caused extensive damage to the campus and delayed the start of classes however when the flood waters receded and the power came back on fau's new faculty and students arrived excited to be learning in paradise of course the campus itself was no paradise back then as you might have heard this university was built on the site of a former army base where the gis were trained during world war ii for a raider tech radar technology that helped the allies win the war but before the war ended the land was neglected for more than a decade it set and even as the campus opened in 1964 the grounds were a stark landscape with very little green space it would be another seven years before the place that you all have affectionately known as narnia with all the trees planted were spared from the place of expansion which was highway i-95 and they were translated here by a faculty member a math professor named jack freeman rumor had it at the time that the snakes outnumbered the students today i think it's the iguanas that are working to get that record fortunately that's no longer the case but one thing that has endured is our commitment to opening the door of opportunity through education when lbj spoke at the dedication ceremony making fau one of the few universities in u.s history to be honored by a sitting president he shared some observations that remain true to this day he said fau plans to be the new future of education in america based on three criteria full equity in educational opportunity new learning to meet new demands new methods to teach many more and indeed even back in the 1960s fau placed special emphasis on welcoming a diverse student body producing workforce ready students to meet the evolving needs of our state and our nation and innovating ways to make education more accessible this included a broadcast technology which was television to beam classes to students wherever they might be so we were well ahead of our time in the pursuit of this distance education opportunity some of the most advanced technology needed to accomplish that was not yet available however thanks to the internet distance education has ultimately become something of the way we are now taking for granted and at least until march of 2020 when the world shut down due to the pandemic and it became our only option i know the past year and a half was not what you imagined when you began your journey at fau and i want to commend you for continuously adapting to this unprecedented way of life and of learning the fact that you're graduating today is proof of course of your intelligence but perhaps more importantly it speaks to your resilience you never gave up it's a trait that will serve you well throughout the rest of your life you remain focused on getting this degree often completely isolated from professors and classmates while trying to maintain your physical and mental health and while difficult there is much to be learned from this experience including the value of relationships and the creative ways we've learned to maintain those relationships from a safe distance things like drive-by birthday parties and zoom weddings we hope are things of the past however the end is in sight it appears that now over 200 million people have been that nationwide have been fully vaccinated an important step in eradicating this virus we're finally getting back together with friends and family we haven't seen in far too long and we're getting back out there and hopefully again we'll have the opportunity to travel and see the world and speaking of seeing the world i hope that you'll remember that you don't have to be in a classroom anymore you've learned better than any how to attain education regardless of where you live in the world no matter where you go though you can always come back to fau even though it might be virtually the freedom and opportunity afforded through this e-learning is exactly what the university's founders decided they were going to do 60 years ago and when they proposed these new technologies in teaching they had an idea that has prospered you have helped to carry out their vision and carry forward the long-standing traditions that are important to all of us those traditions are a place that is focused on full equity innovation and accessibility you succeeded in becoming one of the most educated groups of people in the world during the time of the most challenging in recent history and your legacy will serve as an inspiration to future generations who will look to each of you as examples of determination and ultimately a person who can overcome adversity congratulations class of 2021 we are so very proud of you it is now my great pleasure to introduce mr brad levine from the fau board of trustees who
