President Steenkamp: Courage and resilience in action

There’s something about convocation, and a new crop of changemaking graduates that gives me the courage to believe in better things yet to come.

I know graduates will need tremendous courage to take on tomorrow’s tough challenges but I also know there’s no one better to do it.

That was part of the message I shared with our newest Royal Roads University alumni this week. I encouraged them to face setbacks with courage, tackle challenges with determination, and approach uncertainty with perseverance and compassion.
