Stephanie: I would describe my NYU experience to be
one of multiple opportunities in and
within the city as well as globally.
I definitely am coming out
with a totally different understanding
of like what I fundamentally want to do in the world.
Chandler: Being at NYU has been a transformative
and life-changing experience.
Khirad: After graduation, I'm going
to be going into a doctoral program
in the criminology law and society at UC Irvine.
Stephanie: This past January I have moved on to
working at the Leadership Initiative
here at NYU as the assistant director
for the Breakthrough Scholars
Leadership Program.
Chandler: Preferably as the professor.
I would like for my work to remain
relevant and to have a positive impact
on kids from traditionally
marginalized communities.
I would say the graduating students whether you're leaving New York, um, or staying,
um, make sure that you take advantage of any of the new communities you're entering or the old communities
that you have access to, um, and ask yourself daily whether the work that you're doing
ties back into giving
back to those communities.
Stephanie: Pick something in the world that you care about and that you're passionate about solving.
Use your strengths and leverage them in order to
make your life's mission about working
towards solving those
problems in society.
Chandler: My son is everything
that I ever could hope for, imagined.
I'm sure your parents feel the same way about you.
Um, And getting to this point
in your life is such a huge accomplishment.
Khirad: Congratulations class of 2019!
Chandler: Congratulations!
Stephanie: Congratulations
graduates! You got this. Woo!
