[Mayor David Holt @davidfholt]

Twenty-five years ago this week, Rachel and I walked across this stage in Washington, DC as graduates of The George Washington University. This kid from northwest OKC had a political science degree in hand and a world to change. Today, it was my honor to return to my alma mater and deliver the graduation address at GW’s Elliott School of International Affairs.

The Class of 2026 enters a world of heightened uncertainty, but it is also a world that has never been more interconnected. When I asked the @ElliottSchoolGW graduates today if they had at least one international phone number saved in their phones, every hand went up. These graduates know that international friendship and partnership is vital, and with their @GWtweets degrees, they will have the tools to effectively carry that message out into the world.
