Everyone I know who is successful, and by successful I mean happy in their professional or personal life, every successful person I know could never have predicted when they graduated from college where they’d actually end up.?….52197001570355In paragraphs 2 – 3, Cooper _______________________ _______________________ _______________________ ________________________ in order to _______________ ________________________ ________________________ _______________________.00In paragraphs 2 – 3, Cooper _______________________ _______________________ _______________________ ________________________ in order to _______________ ________________________ ________________________ _______________________.In your time at Tulane in addition to studying, and working, and (all the other things you’ve done that I don’t need to mention in front of your parents), you’ve also built homes, you’ve worked in schools, manned clinics volunteered with church groups and charities you’ve reached out to strangers, and you’ve helped change people’s lives.?Nearly 5 years after Katrina and New Orleans is back…yes, there is still much work to be done, wrongs to right, families that need healing, neighborhoods that need revival, but this city has risen, and it’s done so because you, and many others like you, did not give up.?Local, state, federal governments, politicians, often failed in the wake of Katrina, but you and the people of this city did not.In thinking about what I would say today, I wasn’t sure I was going to mention those dark days after Katrina.?I didn’t want to do anything to dampen this extraordinary celebration, but then I realized this day is made all the more glorious, because all of us know what it took not just for you to get here, but for this city to get here.

The triumph and the tragedy, the richness and the poverty, and remember how you have made it better. You chose to do that. You chose to be here.??San Ysidro High Commencement SpeechClass of 2011By Eliza Ortega4914900142875In paragraph 2, Ortega _____________________________ _____________________________ _____________________________ in order to ___________________ ____________________________ ____________________________ ____________________________00In paragraph 2, Ortega _____________________________ _____________________________ _____________________________ in order to ___________________ ____________________________ ____________________________ ____________________________I am proud to say I am an alumnus of the first graduating class at San Ysidro HighSchool—class of 2006. Around this time five years ago, I was excited to graduate high school and thrilled to start at UCSD that Fall. That summer I prepared for college the only way I knew how—by hanging out with friends as much as possible and sharing moments that still make me laugh. It was an unforgettable summer, and before I knew it I was starting my freshman year at UCSD. I wasn’t sure what to expect. One of the things I was told by everyone was that I wouldn’t see many familiar faces. And I’m not talking about my friends. I’m talking about people that look like me—dark hair, brown skin, fluent in Spanglish. You know, people that proudly wear their soccer jerseys even when there isn’t a game that day. Or that blast the radio to Vicente Fernandez during weekend gatherings. I was told I was entering a world where my Mexican culture would be difficult to find. 499110086995In paragraph 3, Ortega ___________________________ ___________________________ ___________________________ in order to __________________ ___________________________ ___________________________ ___________________________ __________________________00In paragraph 3, Ortega ___________________________ ___________________________ ___________________________ in order to __________________ ___________________________ ___________________________ ___________________________ __________________________During my first week at UCSD, however, I quickly realized that those people were wrong. I saw my people everywhere. I saw them at the food court taking my order at Subway. I saw them in the dorms cleaning and vacuuming. I saw them around campus doing the gardening. They were definitely there, and they are still there, but unfortunately they are all in positions where they don’t have a voice. Some might even argue they are invisible—living in the shadows of a long-forgotten world. Yet in every single one of them I saw my father’s face. I saw the infinite fight to provide for a family; the daily struggle to survive in a world where you don’t even speak the language. But above all else, I saw the hard work, dedication, and a love so great that it will endure anything simply to help a son or daughter get through college. ….Do not be ashamed to say that you are from San Ysidro. San Ysidro High has a sense of community and a great appreciation of culture unlike any other school I’ve seen. San Ysidro is a community of people that truly understand the meaning of hard work. But most importantly, San Ysidro is a community that knows the importance of being humble—and that is a characteristic you need to hold onto. I know you’re expecting to go off to college in a few months, but don’t ever forget where it all started. Don’t ever forget the people who helped you get there. Don’t ever forget your roots. Above all else, don’t forget that there are many others following in your footsteps that need to hear you say “si se puede.”113347583185Main Claim of entire speech: Who/What __________________________ (should / is / are) _____________________________________________ because ____________________________________________________020000Main Claim of entire speech: Who/What __________________________ (should / is / are) _____________________________________________ because ____________________________________________________ ................
