This May, I was invited to deliver the commencement address for the School of Nazareth Spring Commencement in Delray Beach, Florida. Following the release of Pope Leo's historic first encyclical, I was inspired to share the speech with a broader audience 🧵
Here is the full text of my speech to the Class of 2026. It's a heartfelt testimony, a prayer for the graduates, and an ode to the people and places that have shaped me. I hope you’ll come along with me for the ride 🎓💌
@kaushikcbasu@RobertaGattiECO Thank you, Professor @kaushikcbasu, for organizing another fantastic guest lecture for our class! Feeling very grateful that I got to take “Rating Nations” with you during my final semester at Cornell
@RobertaGattiECO@kaushikcbasu@johnsonmuseum Thank you @RobertaGattiECO for visiting us! It was fascinating to learn about your process for developing the HCI; your lecture helped pinpoint areas for development for a sustainability index that 3 classmates and I collaborated on this semester :)
Am working on my new Cornell course later this semester: Rating Nations. It’s about ways in which we can rate & rank nations—from GDP, Human Development Index, to the ratings of S&P and the World Bank’s Doing Business. The plan is also to explore with students new ways of rating.
