Smith encouraged UW-Parkside's 350 graduates May 14 to discover their own "special level of excellence and achievement" and be ready lO make a difference in a "rapidly changing" world. "History is full of people who had an idea and then applied their resources to make their dream a reality," Smith said. "A writer once said that you don't get ideas ... you smell them out, you track them down, wrestle them, pursue them and then implement them. "Such an engagement is done only in the course of active living- seeing what needs to be done to improve the quality of human beings and then being motivated to do something to influence change. "If you see something that needs to change, you must have a definite, clear and practical idea of how to make a difference and then be determined to make the idea a reality by using whatever wisdom, money, material or method is available." Smith also told graduates that the educational experiences they have received from Parkside have helped to lay the foundation for their roles in the stage of life. "Your teachers, the staff, your peers, the books and the various experiences have planted the seeds of future ideas which can inspire you to be lifted above the level of your current self." United States Rep. Mark Neumann, the featured speaker for the university's 26th annual commencement ceremony, told graduates that when a strong set of values IS added to their educational experiences, "anything is possible." Neumann, a 1975 graduate of UW- Whitewater, said he learned from his mistakes after losing consecutive bids in 1991 and 1993 for a Congressional District seat in Congress, He was successful in his third try however, defeating Peter Barca last November for the I st Congressional District seat. Neumann explained that there will be "much adversity and failure" for graduates to encounter on the road to the American Dream, but he maintained his belief in the importance of family, values and friends to help make it through tough times.
