Sometimes you can find me drinking coffee while I read a translation of Haruki Murakami\u2019s novels at our brand new Waseda International House of Literature, just a few minutes\u2019 walk across campus from here. The donuts are super delicious by the way \u2013 I recommend you try them as soon as you can with your friends.<br \/>\nStudying at the university is one great way to gain many of the skills we need in order to build our careers, and to make important decisions as voters, consumers, parents or teachers of the next generation to follow us here on this impossibly polarized, endangered planet. And there is a synergy involved here, an opportunity for each of us gathered today, to expand and to cultivate our understanding of this world through direct contact and action \u2013 whether that action be a simple walk by yourself up a steep hill to retrace and envision the lives of men and women who walked on the same path hundreds of years ago, or to reach out even further, beyond the campus gates, into areas of society we\u2019ve only heard of or glimpsed at through digital space.<\/p>\n<p>Words can be translated into action, and actions have the power either to harm or to heal us. The next four years will lead you towards a career, and will help shape your view of the world in ways, hopefully, that will bring you closer to the joys and to the challenges felt by others at great distances of time and culture and space. I say hopefully because the world will be waiting for these words of yours, and certainly for the actions you take. Good luck every step of the way.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/top\/en\/news\/78709\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">For the full congratulatory address by Robert
