Kermit the Frog to Deliver Commencement Address at University of Maryland
In a delightful twist to graduation ceremonies, Kermit the Frog is set to deliver a heartfelt commencement address at the University of Maryland this Thursday, marking his first such appearance in nearly three decades. "I’m so humbled by it," Kermit remarked, humorously noting, "as seriously as a singing, dancing frog can take anything."
The connection between Kermit and the university runs deep, as Jim Henson, creator of the Muppets, graduated from Maryland in 1960. Henson’s legacy is celebrated on campus with a statue honoring him and Kermit.
In his address, Kermit plans to inspire graduates to embrace new opportunities as they embark on their adult lives. His key message revolves around taking the proverbial "leap" while retaining a sense of childlike curiosity and imagination. "Maybe we’re at our best when we allow ourselves to continue to grow and learn something new every day," he stated.
As graduates prepare to step into their futures, Kermit’s whimsical wisdom promises to encourage them to keep their playful spirit alive on their journeys ahead.
