This fall, I will be attending the University of California at Santa Barbara.įour years and seven days ago many of my fellow classmates and I were graduating from eighth grade two miles down the street. I'm grateful to have served as the Student Union president this year. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to speak to you. Good evening Ms Magee, (other dignitaries), parents, friends, and fellow classmates. It focuses on the importance of education, life experience, and the ability to learn. The third has to enter a competition to get the slot. Two get it because they are valedictorian and president. Our school allows 3 people to give speeches at graduation.
