[00:00:34.347]of your valuable contributions.
[00:00:37.590]The university's mission of education, research and outreach
[00:00:40.830]can only be accomplished
[00:00:42.270]by the dedication of the people within our campus community.
[00:00:46.210]All of you have worked incredibly hard,
[00:00:48.296]achieved a great many things, and inspired the creativity
[00:00:52.330]and imagination in others that will continue on.
[00:00:55.680]You are the heart and soul of UNL.
[00:00:57.910]And we are grateful for the time,
[00:01:00.320]the energy, and the passion you have shared with us.
[00:01:03.780]I know that for many of you,
[00:01:05.220]retirement does not mean an end of work.
[00:01:07.950]Some will continue your service

[00:01:19.940]There is something inside every one of us
[00:01:21.724]particularly those who dedicate themselves
[00:01:24.141]to an institute of higher learning
[00:01:26.224]that propels us to continue teaching,
[00:01:28.890]continue educating, continue exploring the new ideas
[00:01:32.720]and growing and changing the world.
[00:01:35.010]You are not simply retiring from UNL

[00:01:39.810]Whatever you do,
[00:01:40.980]wherever you go, you will always remain
[00:01:43.060]a part of the University of Nebraska Lincoln.
