President Endicott’s Message to the Class of 2018; SolBridge Commencement Ceremony Fall 2018
Chairman Kim, Dean Rose, special guests from Woosong
University, distinguished faculty, graduates, families, and friends. It's
indeed an honor to welcome all of you to another SolBridge Graduation. Today
we're graduating 72 of our students; 49 with BBAs, 23 with MBAs. They come from
14 different countries; 19 from China, one from Azerbaijan, nine from
Kazakhstan, 22 from Korea, one from Mongolia, one from Morocco, one from Nepal,
two from Indonesia, six from Russia, four from Uzbekistan, one from USA, one
from Spain, one from Thailand, and three from Vietnam. Welcome everyone,
congratulations!
Congratulations to all the graduates! We are proud of
you. Your family and friends are proud of you; we ask you to be proud of
yourself and SolBridge. In a few minutes, I have to welcome and congratulate
you. Let me focus on the nature of your college here and your experience while
at SolBridge. We started out to be different; in fact, we sought diversity and
an American-style experience without going to America and making you as
comfortable in a challenging and ever-changing environment as possible. In
essence, we stress soft skills; now the whole world has realized that soft
skills are essential. We introduced to you debate; and when you got too good at
debate, we brought you win-win negation skills, so you do not win the debate
and lose the contract. We have increased emphasis on entrepreneurship and your
ability to respond to challenges of small and medium businesses, the real
centre of job expansion in the 21st century. Our mission is
continually changing to stay ahead in this age of very competitive business
environment; to ensure that you will be the business leaders of Asia, and
perhaps, the World, during the turbulence of this 4th industrial revolution. As
I welcome you, once you're out in a business world, let me ask you to let us
know what we need to teach, what we do not want to teach also to help us with
evolve.
Now on behalf of the entire faculty of SolBridge,
Woosong Colleagues, welcome to this new beginning. Good luck and
congratulations to all graduates. This is your day, enjoy it! Thank you very
much.
