  • Urging the class of 2012 to embrace a life of gratitude, Haley Scott DeMaria, the 1995 University of Notre Dame alumna who made an inspiring recovery from critical injuries suffered in a tragic 1992 bus accident involving the Fighting Irish swimming team, challenged Notre Dame graduates to choose each day to celebrate the blessings in their lives, even during the darkest times.
    DeMaria was the principal speaker and recipient of an honorary doctor of laws degree at the 167th University Commencement Ceremony, at which 1,973 graduates received their diplomas on Sunday (May 20) in Notre Dame Stadium. More: newsinfo.nd.edu/news/30929-cla...

    Such an incredible speech. It was unfortunate that some of my fellow seniors disagreed with the speaker choice..but in that Haley DeMaria way, she overcame all obstacles and won.the day. I mean, she even acknowledged that she doesn't have a Wikipedia page (a complaint of editorial-writing seniors). Now THAT is owning it. Thank you Haley for your tremendous inspiration.

    I am a proud Notre Dame Dad, 3 times over, and I probably watch this video 2 or 3 times a year. What a wonderful message! I would say that the Class of 2012 had one of the best commencement speakers in the history of the university!
