Dean Steinberg, Colleagues, Students, Families, Friends:
Thank you for the honor of speaking today.
Each of us, even those still seeking jobs, have the good fortune of choices in our careers.

Now, as he moves on to a new chapter in his life, please join me in thanking him for all that he has given to us here at the Maxwell School and at Syracuse University.
