On behalf of the MIT Sloan School of Management, congratulations to our outstanding leaders of tomorrow—the graduating class of 2023. And to the family and friends who are in Cambridge to recognize this milestone: thank you for supporting your graduate through their MIT Sloan education and thank you for being with us to mark their accomplishments.
To the MIT Sloan Class of 2023, you are a source of great pride. You are culturally, academically, and professionally diverse. You were selected to join your MIT Sloan program based on assessments of integrity, leadership potential, aspirations for innovation and positive impact, and intellectual ability. Today, I am confident that you will take from your experiences in our classrooms and in our community a large capacity for leadership, resilience, and empathy. All of which will serve you well as you seek to make a positive difference in the world.
To all of this year’s graduates, celebrate the community you have built together and know that it will help to sustain and encourage you, both in dark days and in times of plenty. This community, the MIT Sloan graduating class of 2023, is what the world has been waiting for—and is just what it needs.
Sincerely,
