Founders Day at Roxbury Latin

I was honored to deliver the Commemoration Address for The Roxbury Latin School’s 378th Founders Day celebration. It was a privilege to speak on this important occasion for this prestigious all-boys school in Boston’s West Roxbury section. More than 300 students, plus faculty members and friends, attended this inspirational event that took place at the school’s magnificent Rousmaniere Hall.

The theme of my address was immigration to Boston, with a focus on the North End neighborhood, which the students were visiting later that day. Following the ceremony, students assembled outside (on an absolutely beautiful morning), for the traditional all-school photo. Later, on their North End visit, the students enjoyed the historical sites and, of course, cannolis! My sincere thanks to the students, faculty, and administration of Roxbury Latin for a memorable day!
