Pinging Your Class

On C-Span last week, I saw Supreme Court justice Samuel A. Alito, Jr.deliver these wise words at a commencement address at St. Mary's College.

Decades from now, you may be different than you are today in a lot of significant ways. You may have a lot more money and more status and more power and more accomplishments. You may also have more responsibilities, more worries, more regrets and more bruises. But underneath all of that, you still will be the same person who is here today graduating from college, and it will be good for you to stay connected with the people who know the real you.
