You have learned so much and done so much in your time with us.

Tomorrow, your graduation from Harvard will become official, and my colleagues and I will hand each of you a diploma as you walk across this stage.

明天，你們的哈佛畢業將正式生效，我和我的同事將在你們走過講臺時，親手為每位同學頒發畢業證書。

我們熱切期盼與你們——以及2023屆同學的家人和朋友——共同分享這一重要時刻：也向你們致以祝賀。
