Wesleyan College

“I’ve been asked a time or twenty in my days ‘How dare you?!’ and I simply say, ‘Very well, thank you.’ There are many women in history that decided to 'dare' to do — to make a difference, to pave the way, to be different. So I ask you, ‘How dare you?’ Stop and think about how you got to where you are now in your young lives. Know this, nothing is impossible or out of reach. If I learned anything at Wesleyan it was to use my voice and think outside the box. Make no mistake: your degree from Wesleyan College will get you through many doors; make darn sure you honor her by speaking firmly and intelligently, with compassion and conviction. The world is out there waiting for you to take a chance, ladies — to make a difference. Go and get it! I triple-dog-dare ya!”
