Oprah Winfrey Inspires Spelman Graduates to “know who you are and what you want’ during Commencement Address
For people who never attended The Oprah Winfrey Show during its 25 years on the air, witnessing the media mogul deliver Spelman College’s commencement speech on Sunday was the next best thing.
A thunderous applause rippled through the hall as Winfrey approached the podium to address the college’s 550 graduates and ceremony attendees at the Georgia International Convention Center in College Park, Ga., just outside of Atlanta.
Winfrey, who reminded the female class that “your crown has been paid for [and to] put it on your head and wear it,” stressed three pieces of advice she felt would be valuable to the Class of 2012: Know who you are and what you want; find a way to serve; and always do the right thing.
Oprah Winfrey nice lady, she knows about health, beauty, cooking and alot of things. I saw Oprah magazine on facebook … nice
