[00:00:05.250]CASNR graduates, what do Huskers do
[00:00:07.650]in the face of our generation's greatest challenge?
[00:00:10.880]They rise with unbendable optimism
[00:00:13.450]and unshakeable determination.
[00:00:15.620]You did it.
[00:00:16.850]A huge congratulations to the CASNR class of 2020.
[00:00:20.830]Your parents and families, faculty, staff,
[00:00:24.280]and the entire CASNR community are so proud of you.
[00:00:28.290]As your final semester comes to a close,
[00:00:30.840]we can't thank you enough for your flexibility
[00:00:33.470]and resiliency especially over these past eight months.
[00:00:37.450]Just thinking about how you rapidly responded
[00:00:39.960]to so many changes is both humbling and awe inspiring.
[00:00:44.620]CASNR is home to so many talented students
[00:00:47.610]with unwavering commitment,
[00:00:49.590]and it's hard to put into words how much you mean to us.
[00:00:53.200]As a Husker alum,
[00:00:54.370]you are a part of a great university and tradition
[00:00:57.200]and will forever have a place in our CASNR community.
[00:01:00.290]Big or small, you have left your legacy.
[00:01:02.970]Again, congratulations on behalf of the faculty
[00:01:05.690]and staff in the college.
[00:01:07.280]And finally, as a fellow graduate of CASNR,
[00:01:09.930]I want to welcome you to the college alumni.
[00:01:13.556](lively music)
[00:01:17.800]We did it.
[00:01:18.671]I know those words hit a little differently today.
[00:01:22.200]We did it, we accomplished something very difficult
[00:01:24.590]and did so in difficult times through a global pandemic
[00:01:28.190]and through turbulent political times.
[00:01:30.200]But we did it.
[00:01:31.740]And specifically I know for myself,
[00:01:34.050]and I suspect for you as well, we did it with hope,
[00:01:36.650]with by leaning on our mentors and on each other.
[00:01:39.740]And that highlights the importance of ourselves in teams,
[00:01:43.360]and through teamwork, we'll be able to face the challenges
[00:01:47.970]that CASNR has prepared us to face, specifically the food,
[00:01:51.890]water, energy, and landscape challenges,
[00:01:54.740]and specifically how people fit in them,
[00:01:57.530]which CASNR has prepared us to deal with.
[00:02:00.230]But for today, let's just acknowledge that we did it,
[00:02:03.410]and that we did it during very difficult times.
[00:02:06.863]Hi, I'm Rachel Stewart and I'm graduating with a degree
[00:02:09.820]in agribusiness and minors in animal science
[00:02:12.170]and agribusiness entrepreneurship.
[00:02:14.230]I'd like to congratulate my fellow December 2020 graduates.
[00:02:17.990]Coming from a small town as a freshmen,
[00:02:20.270]college was really intimidating,
[00:02:22.030]but I'm so glad that CASNR gave me
[00:02:23.640]that same small town feeling.
[00:02:25.690]I know that this isn't the way
[00:02:26.890]that any of us thought we'd be graduating, but we did it.
[00:02:29.690]Congratulations, and as always, go Big Red.
[00:02:32.960]Congratulations fellow graduates
[00:02:35.300]of CASNR's December 2020 graduating class.
[00:02:38.800]As a student body, we have adapted and thrived
[00:02:41.020]in a situation that none of us expected to be in.
[00:02:43.847]Through the past year, we've embraced the grit,
[00:02:46.950]and because of that, we are now rewarded with the glory
[00:02:49.260]of being a Nebraska graduate.
[00:02:51.160]Congratulations again, Huskers, and as always, go Big Red.
[00:02:55.330]On behalf of CASNR alumni,
[00:02:56.840]I would like to say congratulations on your graduation.
[00:03:00.190]Even though graduation might look a little different
[00:03:01.980]for you this year, the achievement is still the same.
[00:03:05.030]You put in the same hard work,
[00:03:06.790]you've learned and grown so much.
[00:03:08.800]Take a moment to reflect
[00:03:09.890]on the lifelong friendships you've made
[00:03:11.610]during your time at the university.
[00:03:13.460]These are the friendships you will cherish
[00:03:14.990]for years to come.
[00:03:16.510]Again, congratulations on your graduation,
[00:03:19.020]and let me be the first to welcome you
[00:03:20.580]to the CASNR Alumni Association.
