"As you know, the great motto of the University of California is Fiat Lux, Let There Be Light. You are the light and hope of this world. We are hopeful for the future because we know we can count on you. On behalf of all of us on the faculty, let me say to the Class of 2020, that you have enriched us immeasurably and we are grateful for having had the honor of having you as our students."

— Chancellor Howard Gillman

"You've all done this, you've reached this great milestone. Go out and celebrate! Be good and be kind, be kind to each other."

— Willie L. Banks, Jr., Ph.D., Vice Chancellor, Student Affairs
