 You know the pandemic was certainly a challenging season for higher education overall and certainly for us as well but during that time when many universities have struggled in what I think is finding their mission in some ways the University of Alabama stayed the course and we are thriving. Your consistent approach to excellence matters. Every accolade that I've shared today is because of your ongoing focus and support and all of our collective efforts to make these accomplishments occur. As we consider all that has been accomplished and look through the future ahead I think we can be sure that we will continue transforming this university, the state of Alabama, our country and our world through our graduates and through our collective effort. There is no experience like the Alabama experience and there is no campus that has more pride in our students as do you our faculty and staff and who can rival that. As it's been said before but I think it is worth repeating this is the place where legends are made and truly it's each one of you that create those legends in our students and also in your colleagues. You are the architects truly of everything great that's happening here at the University of Alabama. When I say it's a privilege to serve as your president I mean that with the greatest degree of respect and admiration for how you continue to serve this capstone in our community here in Tuscaloosa. Thank you for what you do and Roll Tide.
