Dr. Rich Wagner, President of Dunwoody College of Technology, Minneapolis, Minnesota's closing speech and Dunwoody's commencement on May 26, 2021, at CHS Baseball field, St. Paul, Minnesota. It is a message for all graduates of technical colleges in 2021.

And now, as you start the next leg of your journey you carry a responsibility to perpetuate Dunwoody’s reputation through your actions and accomplishments. Are you ready to meet that challenge?

We have all the confidence that you will succeed. Think about all you’ve overcome. You have now endured over a year of challenges associated with a pandemic and the radical changes in how we live, how we go to school and how we do just about everything. You watched the challenges of social injustice as Minneapolis and Minnesota became the epi-center of the call for equity. All while you were trying to finish your education.

You not only endured these crises, you embraced the challenges and with courage and determination you stayed focused and finished your education.

That’s why we all have confidence in you. What you did to finish your education, the discipline, dedication, and commitment you demonstrated has prepared you for success in a very different and difficult world. And now, the world needs you more than ever. We need you to keep industry moving, to help economies restart, to be the talent so many companies need so we as a state and nation have the capacity for economic growth.

We need you, as so many Dunwoody alumni have, to go into the world and help repair what is broken. To use your education to build stronger communities and a better world.

We know you will live up to this charge because you have been equipped with a Dunwoody education and you have demonstrated the ability to overcome significant challenges.

You now represent the best Dunwoody has to offer, and your actions and accomplishments will build Dunwoody’s reputation for the next generation of Dunwoody students. We look forward with great anticipation to hearing about your successes.

Congratulations, thank you for attending Dunwoody and good luck -
