      As I addressed the 2018 graduating class of @avemariauniv this morning, I reflected on graduates from all across the country. God gave each of us unique talents and we can choose what to do with them. However, we should not bury them in the ground. I urge you to go for greatness.

      I want to focus on a key component of life that’s at the core of what it means to be an American: service. Public service isn't self-service. It's about serving others. For me, it’s the moral obligation to expand educational opportunities for *each* and *every* child.

      America is the most prosperous nation on the face of the earth, and it’s also the most generous. But that strong tradition isn’t just passed along from generation to generation in the blood stream. It’s taught. It’s learned. It’s shared.

      What will you do to put your newly gained skills to work in service of others? Now is the time to start doing it. And what you do now is up to you. It’s not up to your parent’s. It’s not up to your teachers. It’s up to you. As Mother Teresa said, "Find your own Calcutta."pic.twitter.com/RwrJVwUOpr

      As you venture out into the world, know that your life won’t always unfold according to plan. Anticipate being called to something different, to something unexpected. Don’t avoid a change in course, an alternate path. Don’t fear the unknown. Embrace the mess.

          Yo Bets. Both of my daughters attended and graduated from Catholic grade/high school. One graduated from a Catholic university with a degree in Early Childhood Ed. She also has an advanced degree from The Ohio State University (which she earned while teaching full-time)...

          She is a damn good, professional educator who, along with thousands of dedicated colleagues, would reveal your lust for power, money, and theocracy over what is best for the majority of us who disagree with you...

          We know you paid to play. We know you called in your markers. Yippee! For what it's worth, good for you. However, there are professional public school educators and administrators who question your motives. #unqualified #resign #publiceducation #paytoplay #collectoninvestment
