    As an actual engineer, Mark is the perfect choice to give a comment speech at MIT. Well deserved.
  • I am not MIT. I am a highschooler on another continent. But i was motivated. Thank you Mark, I know what i must do to achieve my dreams. Trully, you have succeeded in inspiring the young. Godspeed

    This is probably the only speech I'd sit through and listen to completely

    Mark, you are the poster child for the saying “Growing older is mandatory, growing up is optional”. Well done!
  • As someone who aspires to get into MIT, I found this speech very inspiring. It's rare for someone to be able to enjoy a 20 minute speech. Thanks Mark!

    That was THE best Commencement Speech I've ever tuned into. I did not expect to grin from ear to ear and watch this whole video. You have such an infectious, playful perspective on life Mark... thank you for pouring so much heart and soul into that speech that will forever be remembered by this great class, as you do with every video.
  • Hey Mark. I was one of the students in the crowd! Your speech really resonated with me, especially your advice regarding assuming kind intentions from the people close to you. I am someone who often struggles in social settings and overanalyzes all the interactions I have. These days whenever I feel anxious about how I am perceived I try to remind myself of your advice and it really helps :)

    As one of the graduating students that experienced this in person, I will say that this is a speech that I will ALWAYS remember as Mark broke all the conventional rules and created a new bar for commencement speeches!
  • @LixalLogue
    can I just say I think the most inspirational part of this for me is listening to you mess up words the same way I do all the time and just keep going. Thank you so much for not being perfect.

    Как я рад, что платишь человеку который переводит твои ролики и мы их смотрим. Спасибо, Марк Робер и актёру дубляжа!

    Graduating from MIT is already amazing, but having Mark Rober give the commencement speech is the cherry on top.
  • @VirinchiVakada
    "Relieved parents and confused pets" This is the best opening lines of graduation speech😂
  • @davidglass710
    Mark: You, an experienced engineer who drew inspiration from your Mom's life experience and encouragement, have now received a standing O from some of our best future engineers; and that is the cherry on top. Congratulations, Class of 23, and this retired engineer can confirm that Mr. Rober's three points will enhance your life.

    I'm so glad people like you are being invited to speak at graduation ceremonies!

    This speech is more to just the Graduating MIT Class of 2023, it’s to all kids, teens, college students, and adults. That’s what makes this so amazing.
  • @Clobares
    Thank you so much Mark. This video helped me see the world in such a better light. The phrases about your mom got to my heart too, and that speaks volumes of your impact in the world. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Mark, since I just started college it's been a challenge and with this speech of yours it's made me realize no matter what happens in my career in college I will evolve and learn how to combat different challenges. Thank you so much.
