The commencement address from U.S. Circuit Judge Robert Katzmann, chief judge of the Second Circuit, at Fordham Law’s Virtual Diploma Ceremony was included in a round-up on law school commencement remarks in Law360.
If anything is certain, it’s uncertainty.
That was the message of the address given by U.S. Circuit Judge Robert Katzmann, chief judge of the Second Circuit. Like other commencement speakers this year, he reminded graduates at Fordham University School of Law that they are well-equipped to deal with the unpredictability of the future, to confront and solve problems and to think analytically about the best way forward.
“With uncertainty comes opportunity,” he said in his May 18 address. “Life is not a straight line of predictable events.”
He urged the students to follow their passions, embrace “the road less traveled,” remain open and curious, and find and seek guidance from mentors.
