2020 Senior Class Marshal and University Scholar Serena Omo-Lamai ’20 gave remarks to the Class of 2020 during Commencement on Sunday, Sept. 19, in the stadium.
Omo-Lamai, of Lagos, Nigeria, spoke of an African proverb that reminded her of the Class of 2020: “If you want to move mountains tomorrow, you must start by lifting stones today.”
“Those stones have appeared in the form of challenges we have had to overcome or the opportunities that we have seized,” Omo-Lamai said. “I see in front of me many mountain movers who have taken advantage of the stones of opportunity that we have encountered at our time at 鶹ƵUniversity.”
