So as it turns out, it was a tough year for...a lot of things, but especially finding the time to contribute to the blog.

...but for the moment, I wanted to share the speech I made after the MA class of 2018 asked me to speak at graduation this year. I will confess that it was much harder than I thought it would be to do write a graduation speech in our current climate. How does one be uplifting and candid these days -- and how does one address political realities without being branded as a partisan, especially when speaking for an entire institution? Well, you can watch below and see how you think I did...enjoy and more soon!
