Governor Carney took office as Delaware is 74th governor. In January 2017 he was focused on making Delaware is economy more competitive. Preparing Delaware is children to succeed. And in building a long-term sustainable financial plan. From 2011 to 2017 he's served as Delaware is low and a member of the US House of Representatives. Prior to his time in Congress Governor Carney served two terms as delaware as Lieutenant Governor. The second of nine children he was born in Wilmington and raised in claimant by his parents Jack and and Carney. They were both educators. He attended St. Marks High School and lead the school's football team to its first state championship in 1973. After graduating high school he attended Dartmouth College where he continued his football career and learned and all Ivy League and most valuable player honors. When he returned to Delaware he coached freshman football on the staff of UD is famous head coach Toby Raman. While he was doing that he also earned his master's degree in public administration at the University of Delaware John Carney lives in Wilmington with his wife Tracy they have two sons Sam and Jimmy. Please join me in giving a blue warm hand. Welcome to Governor Carter Thank you very much Dr. Klein as she was reading those remarks about my athletic career. I was thinking the older I get the better I used to be. It's great to be here with all of you Dr. Klein and faculty and staff of the Lerner College here at the University back here and what we call family I think the little Bob. Let me welcome all the parents and family and friends of these graduates tonight. This is a happy night I know for all of you and especially the graduates. I've been looking through the list of graduates and I've been thinking to myself how smart you all must be. Because every single one of you is graduating in a degree that's actually useful. Something that will help you get a job. I have two sons Tracy and I wonder two years out of college and one just graduated earlier this month the maid Tracy and I very happy iteration i were both English majors. So we were pleasant sees as pleasantly surprised that unlike their parents are two boys decided to major in things that could actually help them get a job after they graduated. My son Sam was a business an accounting major like some of you. And Jimmy who just graduated in computer science. If you think about what you want for your children one of the main thing is the hope they don't become an English major like me for all the English majors and I can say that because I'm an English major to. So no matter what happens after today you can rest assured that you've done at least one thing to make your parents and loved ones proud. Because while some of you may have been English majors as undergraduates now you got a degree that's going to help you get a job. One thing that's especially exciting to me about a graduation like this. Is it for many of you it signals a change in your trajectory of your career. I had a very similar experience through my graduate days here at the University of Delaware. I played a lot of sports as a kid St. Mark's i was played three sports to sports in college. I had good coaches that were people that I admired and looked up to. So after graduating from college I wanted to be a coach. And as the bio said I did coach for some time I coached lacrosse and football out in San Francisco at the high-school level came back and coach at the University of Pennsylvania and then decided to come back home to coach under TBI Raymond the freshmen program which we had in those days for four years as I worked on my degree in public policy and public administration. And while I was here at the university delaware I got an internship in the legislature in Dover And it was really that experience that exposure to government a pox something that I hadn't expressed orbit an interest in or been involved in prior to that that I fell in love with that kind of thing. And I also figured out that I didn't want my success in the future to depend on how 19 to 22 year old young men performed on Saturday afternoons every fall. If you know what I mean by that. And instead I decided on a career where my future and my success depended on how a couple of 100 thousand people in Delaware voted on as second Tuesday every other November that wasn't a very smart decision. I don't think. I can imagine that some of you took similar circuitous route to get here. And I know that once you got here it took a whole lot of muscle to be here tonight to graduate. Angela Duckworth is a psychologist at the University of Pennsylvania. As part of her research she studied a group of cadets at West Point. As many of you know probably as our military academy of four young people who want to become officers in the army during their first year the cadets have to go through something that's called Beast Barracks. For seven weeks they have to do physical and mental task for 17 hours a day with no break. It's extremely grueling. And it's when a lot of the cadets drop out altogether this psychologist was trying to figure out what the difference was between the cadets who dropped out and those who finished and went onto become Army officers. It turns out that the difference wasn't physical ability. It was an SAT scores and it wasn't academic performance in high school. It was something that psychologists called grit which he defined as a combination of passion and perseverance passion and perseverance. And that's what makes this graduation ceremony today especially meaningful in my mind. Every single one of you here. And then they'll wear blue cap and gown has displayed a whole lot of grit. A whole lot of passion and perseverance just the desire to get it done. You didn't necessarily have the deck stacked in your favor. In fact some of you overcame some pretty big obstacles to get here. This evening. Your class may Tanisha George completed the MBA program while running her own marketing and branding business and while working in career services helping students with their own professional development Maria d'Art Angelo pool was the daughter of immigrants. And the first in her family to graduate from college. She got into graduate school straight out of college. But she had to delay her degree to focus on work and family. And today 30 years later Murray is getting her MBA and strategic leadership. That's what Angela Duckworth would call grit. Your classmate Dennett DBA vec. I hope right pronounce that right continued running his own software company and taught an accounting class here at the same time no problem. Mckenzie shoes just started a job at Agilent Technologies here in Delaware. But more importantly she has a 2.5 week old little baby. No problem. For each of you your passion. And your perseverance is mainly while you're here tonight. And I can assure you that your success in whatever you decide to do after this will be as much a function of grit and determination as it will be a Brains and book smarts. So there's good news and bad news. The good news is that you're leaving here today arm with the skills you'll need to succeed in today's economy. You've learned critical thinking skills from Dr. Brody. You've learned how to work as a team with an incredibly diverse group of individuals from around the world and you've learn how not to take life too seriously at your first friday happy hours that the Deer Park. I remember those hours fondly. The other good news is that it's a very tight labor market out there in Delaware and across the country. And so there are lots of good job opportunities. The bad news is as the kids say stuffs about to get real. In the real world your grit will determine whether accompany survives whether an economy thrives whether discoveries are made. Jobs are lost or gain. But thanks in large part to the education you've received here at the University of Delaware egg every single one of you is up to that challenge. The governor not have all of you because you're from other places I can tell. I'm here to today to tell you that you're exactly the kind of people young people we want to stay here in our state. And so as all of you embark on your new careers of innovation and entrepreneurship. I hope you'll consider staying here. In the first state a state you've called home for the past few years As Governor I can tell you we want you here and we're eager to do what we can to keep you here. So since I've got a captive audience you really can't leave until I'm finished because I'm standing between you and those diplomas. Let me make my pitch. Were small stay a great place to live but a straight for people stay for people with your experience and skills. And we have lots of opportunity at Insight accompany growing here in Delaware is a pharmaceutical company actively working on cutted cutting edge therapies to cure cancers and other diseases. Cortes a spin-off from the DuPont company is working on safer ways to feed people across the globe. The new De Pi which we may hear about in a minute. From our alumni speaker has tremendous opportunities as well. Jp Morgan Chase and M and tieback are looking to hire hundreds of new employees here in the first day. And I know some of you are already working at gore or Capital One startups like carver ties founded by 2013 Lerner College graduates and co-working space at the mill offer other opportunities for innovation and creativity. We've got space for startups right down the road here at the star campus and labs at the innovation space at the Experimental Station. Fintech companies like more let fair square acorns and College Avenue student loans are changing the way businesses and families spend and save. In Sussex County where the beautiful beaches and ag land Purdue and MT air need smart business savvy leaders just like you. In some ways government and business could not be more different. But we we've been working to bridge that gap. One of your classmates noah Olson has join us in the effort as a staff member with a Delaware Prosperity Partnership the public has no out there. Areas. We thought if you're trying to attract and retain businesses in Delaware who knows how to do that better than private businesses themselves. And part of his job is making sure that government isn't getting in the way of that effort. That's my way of saying that if you got a good idea we're committed to giving you the sport you need to make it grow into a successful business here in Delaware. I know that part of my job as a convocation speaker is supposed to give you to give you some advice. But I'm not sure I'm qualified to do that. So instead I'll share an observation and a hope for all of you. Here's the observation. Every job has hard parts. Every job is difficult for my job in particular. It's figuring out what the right thing to do is. And how to do it As our former vice president and UDL love Joe Biden would say. And knowing what's worth losing an election over for you it may be figuring out whether to take a job with a startup company or a large corporation. When to take the company public whether to died down size in order to increase long-term growth or balancing your work at home lives. Whatever it is I can tell you for certain. That if you're doing something that you love and something that's meaningful the hard parts of a job get a whole lot easier. Incredibly fortunate to find my passion here at the University of Delaware. And I hope that you will do the same after tonight. You get to enjoy one of the greatest privileges. I think we as Americans can hope to enjoy Which is the opportunity to turn our passion into your job and into your career. And I can't wait to see what each of you accomplish. Thank you very much. Good luck and God bless you Big enough thank you Governor Carney Very sharing your experience and for taking time out of your busy schedule to be here and for those inspiring words we have a token of our appreciation so that you'll remember this evening.

Good evening class of 2019. After all those glasses though semester exams those deem projects my god those team projects. And those case studies those business reviews researchers presentations you all made it. Many congratulations and welcome to the proud network of UT alumni. You are now an indispensable part of the UD bran. And I'm hoping that you all know what that means and calls for God's way a commitment towards building this brand and taking the responsibility of investing time and money and energy and developing people who will continue to become apart of the UD brand. You would often notice that the expectations from a person who has a graduate degree are far more than others. As a hiring manager I can confirm that fact to you. However as a UDL luminous Let me also reassure you that you already have the tools to not only meet but exceed some of these expectations posed in front of you. A big part of your toolkit is going to be your network. You will often be tasked with responsibilities that may not be a part of your out of the suitcase skill set. If you call it that. If I look back at my 15 years of professional life I've held several positions where I knew pretty much basics on day one. But as long as you're ready to learn and you have the right network to coach you. You will grow and deliver business results. I have endless stories where my UD network has failed. We out of situations professors who have coached me and nurtured me and spoken for me. And pointed me to a great pool of talent that are hired from people who I hired and they make me look good in my new teams. So what I'm trying to tell you is that a big part of my own success story is University of Delaware network. So this morning as I got ready and I taught about what does that one piece of advice that I could give you as I welcome you to my network. What does that one thing that could summarize 15 years of my learnings some of my successes and many of my failures. What does at one thing when I lagged I fell on my face when I had it I was successful in some of the most challenging and demanding circumstances. I believe that one thing for me was courage. All the other skills that you would need to become future leaders business developers researchers and whatnot can be built if you have the strong foundation of personal courage I've had my own fears Governor Carney you would be surprised but I was the one who actually wanted English majors because I have a fear of speaking in English in front of people who speak so well I have a fear of being judged. And my biggest fear has always been Do not be able to fit in to not be able to feel like I belong especially in the leadership groups. And so I had to dig a little bit deeper and find that courage to be authentic especially in the chances that I was facing in my different roles. How do I stay authentic I told myself this that no matter where I come from no matter how I look like no matter how I sound like no matter where I'm going I would stay authentic and true to myself. Today you all are writing your success stories. Tomorrow you'll be developing your growth plans. I urge you all to ask yourselves this. Do you have the courage to learn do you have the courage to reach out to your network and say I do not know please coach me. Do you have the courage to talk about your peers to appreciate them to appraise them. Sometimes even above yourself. Do you have the courage to treat people are like whether the interns are CEOs on your network. Do you have the courage to remove your focus from your individual successes and reach out to your network and talk about the common goal. Do you have the courage to develop people not knowing whether there it will yield any immediate results or not. My dear friends you may not know the answer today and it's okay to not know. The thing about courage has been what I found was that it comes in all shapes sizes and forms. Sometimes it's not about speaking up or speaking loud. Sometimes it's about being quiet and listening and observing and learning. I wish you all that you have the courage to stay curious. The world needs the courageous you. We need the courageous you. Welcome to my network of UD alumina. You have a great day today be courageous to enjoy success and bask in your glory. You did it Thank you ne ha we appreciate your call to action and for courage and authenticity. To remember this day we have a token of appreciation. And again Thank you. As we close this ceremony I would like our graduates to remember one thing that as talented as they are and as good as they are they could have not done all this without the help and support of their families. And their friends would the parents spouses relatives and friends of our graduates. Please stand. And graduates would you turn to recognize those that helped you to get here today. Give them a round of applause. Thank you. Please be seated. I would also like to recognize the learner faculty and staff and my colleagues for their dedication to our graduates with the faculty and staff and all my colleagues at Lerner College please stand and be recognized.
