“Members of the Brandeis graduating Class of 2025, as you now set forth amid the turbulence and the traumas of our time, eager to promote change and impatient to start, I hope that you will keep Louis Brandeis' admonition in mind. Be patient as well as persistent. Aim at the happy medium. Learn from history.”
