“I had the honor of giving two commencement addresses last week, at Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health and at my alma mater University of Utah School of Medicine. I have great confidence in the graduates as they embrace the challenging, rewarding paths of public health and medicine. They give me great hope for the future. Congratulations again!”
