Write An essay on how Bill Gates Harvard Commencement Address 2007 motivate and inspires you

English

Leto [7]2 years ago

President Bok, former President Rudenstine, incoming President Faust, members of the Harvard Corporation and the Board of Overseers, members of the faculty, parents, and especially, the graduates:

I’ve been waiting more than 30 years to say this: “Dad, I always told you I’d come back and get my degree.”

I want to thank Harvard for this timely honor. I’ll be changing my job next year … and it will be nice to finally have a college degree on my resume.

I applaud the graduates today for taking a much more direct route to your degrees. For my part, I’m just happy that the Crimson has called me “Harvard’s most successful dropout.” I guess that makes me valedictorian of my own special class … I did the best of everyone who failed.

But I also want to be recognized as the guy who got Steve Ballmer to drop out of business school. I’m a bad influence. That’s why I was invited to speak at your graduation. If I had spoken at your orientation, fewer of you might be here today.

Harvard was just a phenomenal experience for me. Academic life was fascinating. I used to sit in on lots of classes I hadn’t even signed up for. And dorm life was terrific. I lived up at Radcliffe, in Currier House. There were always lots of people in my dorm room late at night discussing things, because everyone knew I didn’t worry about getting up in the morning. That’s how I came to be the leader of the anti-social group. We clung to each other as a way of validating our rejection of all those social people.

Why do the narrator and his family refer to his dad's childhood home as "the Middle of Nowhere'?
Alona [7]

Answer:

It is a remote place.

Explanation:

Although there is no precise reference to the text, <em>"the middle of nowhere" is a phrase representing a very remote and usually isolated place.</em> So, the narrator and his family must think that his dad's home is far away from them and possibly far away from civilization, hence they call it "the Middle of Nowhere".
