[00:00:03.060]Hello, I'm Dr. Jeff Gold,
[00:00:05.820]and I have the privilege of serving as the ninth president
[00:00:09.870]of the University of Nebraska System.
[00:00:13.380]This opportunity to serve
[00:00:15.600]one of America's great universities is truly an honor.
[00:00:20.640]I'm deeply grateful for your feedback and the well wishes
[00:00:24.330]that many of you have shared over the last few months.
[00:00:27.720]I thank you for your trust,
[00:00:29.730]and I thank you for your endless encouragement.
[00:00:34.020]I truly believe that great things are in store
[00:00:36.810]for our future.
[00:00:38.610]While they may entail some change,
[00:00:41.100]they will also include a solid foundation
[00:00:44.220]of collaboration and transparency.
[00:00:48.420]We have opportunities to grow and to continue to succeed,
[00:00:53.250]but we also have challenges to face.
[00:00:56.070]But I firmly believe that within every challenge
[00:00:59.970]lives an even more powerful opportunity,
[00:01:03.780]and I look forward to working together with all of you
[00:01:07.320]to define these opportunities
[00:01:09.480]and to shape our collective future.
[00:01:13.200]As I begin this new role,
[00:01:15.000]I'm focused on listening and learning,
[00:01:17.670]both across our campuses and across our state.
[00:01:22.050]Trust and relationships are at the center
[00:01:25.620]of all good partnerships,
[00:01:27.600]and they're earned by spending time together,
[00:01:30.960]by hearing your stories, understanding what excites you,
[00:01:35.730]and also what concerns you about our future.
[00:01:40.290]We have countless opportunities
[00:01:42.750]that can only be realized when we work together.
[00:01:46.680]Opportunities to make the University of Nebraska
[00:01:49.320]a model for other universities across our nation.
[00:01:53.610]We have opportunities
[00:01:54.600]to grow the state's workforce and the economy,
[00:01:58.170]opportunities to support our mission of academic excellence.
[00:02:02.700]We have opportunities to change lives
[00:02:06.150]through groundbreaking research
[00:02:08.370]and to fully engage with the myriad of communities
[00:02:11.640]that we serve together.
[00:02:14.250]I thank you for welcoming me
[00:02:15.720]into the University of Nebraska family,
[00:02:18.690]and I fully appreciate the strength of our collective legacy
[00:02:23.190]and all of the work that has been done to date.
[00:02:26.370]I'm eager to work hard and to work hand in hand with you
[00:02:30.450]as we continue to move our university forward.
