1
Welcome!
2
Trustees, deans, faculty, alumni, graduates,
3
families, my fellow honorands, Justice Department spies, and that Uber Eats driver delivering mimosas.
4
As I look upon this gathering of tomorrow's greatest minds, I'm confident saying there is no less flattering outfit than the cap and gown.
5
We all look like the potions professor at Hogwarts.
6
Up here on stage, it feels like an AA meeting for druids.
7
I want to thank
8
President Garber for his incredible stewardship of this graduating class.
9
Fantastic job, sir.
10
Really nice, really nice.
11
Normally, normally Finally I would give you an A +, but in keeping with upcoming
12
Harvard policy, I'm adjusting your grade to a C -.
13
Trust me, it's for the good of the school.
14
I will keep my remarks brief because MIT's graduation is also today,
15
and I want to give you a 15 -minute head start on your job hunt.
16
Those nerds down the river won't know what hit them.
17
Also, just a quick announcement after the ceremony.
18
Tequila shots are on me at the Porcellian Club.
19
Yeah.
20
Yeah.
21
You're all invited.
22
Just force your way inside and tell them Conan sent you.
23
They're an understanding bunch.
24
as we gather here today at this beautiful tercentenary theater I am struck by one thought
25
only someone from Harvard would call this patch of grass a tercentenary theater
26
just look at this yard Percival it is a veritable tercentenary theater
27
Harvard why use a five dollar word when a fifty dollar word will do
28
it's really nice to be back at the very last place i use the word querulous in a sentence
29
standing right over there by widener i asked someone what does querulous mean
30
fortunately they knew the answer because it was a yale student man they're good
31
oh please please let us not denigrate our fellow ivies let's admit that all seven are worthy institutions.
32
Except for Princeton, those people are absolute tools.
33
What the hell is going on over there?
34
Yeah.
35
As I stand here, I'm flooded with so many rich memories of this campus, and especially of my dear, beloved, Mather House.
36
Yeah, that's enough.
37
Mather was named after former
38
Harvard president Increase Mather, who was an infamous figure in the Salem witch trials.
39
And if any of you spent more than an hour in Mather House, you know the witches got the last laugh.
40
It's such an ugly building.
41
Okay.
42
I'm sorry.
43
Just tear it down, start again.
44
All right, here we go.
45
Of course, we all make jokes about our school, but Harvard is still our nation's oldest and most renowned seat of higher learning,
46
and today you are the 375th graduating class.
47
Yes.
48
Did you know that the first graduating class in 1642 had only nine students?
49
Yeah.
50
And somehow even they were all legacies.
51
That's hard to do.
52
No university in our nation has produced more
53
Nobel laureates or white -collar criminals.
54
So whether you choose good or evil, know that you are among the very best.
55
Harvard is indeed an impressive place.
56
Today this university honors 13 esteemed colleges and I salute all of you, each and every one.
57
Now, of course, don't push it.
58
Of course, this includes the Harvard School of Dental Medicine.
59
Yes.
60
Yeah.
61
And let me tell you something.
62
When Harvard dentists say you may rinse and spit, they say it in Latin.
63
I wasn't going to do that joke, but the dental school said they'd give me free veneers if I gave them a shout out.
64
No, I take my assignment today seriously.
65
And in preparation for this speech, I asked the provost office for intel on all your concerns
66
and I was told the following you're obsessed with doing laundry now
67
that it's free you bemoan the lack of fresh berries you're upset you're upset
68
that not all the dining halls have hot breakfast yeah
69
and you are alarmed you're alarmed that the The Kennedy School has stopped providing complimentary coffee.
70
If these are indeed your concerns, you sicken me.
71
Half those complaints are things you'd hear from a brown bear.
72
More berries!
73
Before I continue, there is one thing I must acknowledge.
74
For your entire academic lives, you have been lectured to by lots and lots of old white men.
75
And now, when you are minutes from getting out the door, Harvard is saying, not so fast.
76
We found one more.
77
He graduated 41 years ago, and he's not just white, but shockingly white.
78
Indirect sunlight, you can see his bones.
79
Well I may be old and white, but let me assure you, I still fit in seamlessly with the long list of Nobel laureates,
80
heads of state, and civil rights activists who have given this commencement address.
81
Now, sure, we did great things, but only I play a talking,
82
potty -training gadget named Smarty Pants in the upcoming
83
Toy Story 5 in theaters everywhere on June 19th.
84
Did Winston Churchill do that?
85
He did not.
86
Former German Chancellor Angela Merkel?
87
Well, she did audition, but testing showed she frightened children.
88
Yes, I graduated 40 years ago, but I promise you your lives here were no different than mine was in 1981.
89
Like you, I too had to put an extra -long cord on my dorm phone
90
so I could cook my lean cuisine while talking to my friends about Mr. T.
91
Like you, I know the pain of losing my place on the Ms. Pac -Man leaderboard
92
because I was too busy buying an erase cartridge for my Smith Corona typewriter.
93
Yes, we are all bound by these ancient common truths.
94
Now of course, I understand the unprecedented difficulties you face today, including AI.
95
Yeah, I know, I know.
96
Luckily, AI is not a problem at Harvard.
97
Here, professors have been able to quickly flag students' use of AI thanks to the sophisticated AI software
98
they use to grade papers it all works out yeah
99
and don't worry despite your fears trust me
100
when I say AI cannot replace
101
you yes yes yes it'll be too busy replacing those creeps
102
from Princeton anyway of course perhaps the biggest issue facing this institution is
103
that the federal government of the United States is suing our university.
104
Yeah.
105
Many people think I've come today to defend Harvard.
106
Well, sorry, those people are wrong.
107
Not only am I not against these lawsuits, I'm here to announce that I'm joining them.
108
I too am suing Harvard.
109
I'm suing Harvard for the cast iron bunk bed that greeted me upon my arrival at Hallworthy 16 my freshman year.
110
A bed that has since been confiscated by The Hague as an instrument of divine cruelty.
111
I'm suing Harvard for allowing me to sign up for a 9 a .m class at the Science Center
112
and a 10 a .m.
113
class down at Soldier's Field.
114
For God's sakes, I was a child!
115
I'm suing Harvard for my less than spectacular undergraduate sex life.
116
for me having a three -way man adding a second mirror to my dorm.
117
I'm suing Harvard
118
because once I had to listen to the Harvard Crocodillos do an eight -minute rendition of Spliss Splash
119
I was taking a bath.
120
My god, each one took a solo and it was awful. And finally, I'm suing
121
Harvard because, and this is absolutely true, in the spring, of my sophomore year, while trying to grab a quick lunch at Adam's house,
122
I was served a meal called Captain Ben's Fish Spaghetti.
123
To this day, I have no idea who
124
Captain Ben is or why someone would combine government -issue cod with spaghetti.
125
Harvard, I'll see your ass in court.
126
Yes, I'm confident that my claims will have more merit than those filed by the President of the United States.
127
As you are aware, the current administration feels
128
Harvard admits too many foreign students, and who knows, they may have a point me.
129
After all, what has any foreigner ever added to our American culture, with the possible exception of music,
130
literature, art, cuisine, fashion, architecture, dance, scientific breakthroughs and the core of our moral codes and ethical beliefs?
131
Seriously, if foreigners hadn't gummed up the works, right now we'd all be listening to delightful Calvinist reggae,
132
eating savory Church of England ziti, and dancing the forbidden and sexually charged Lutheran Lombada.
133
But let me assure you, I did not come here simply to toss off some jokes about my alma mater.
134
I mean, that was the main reason.
135
But I really do, really do love this school.
136
It changed my life.
137
The day I told my bedridden grandmother, a woman who had never had the opportunity to go to college, that I had been accepted to Harvard,
138
and seeing her weep is one of the happiest days of my life.
139
Of course, it turned out I was sitting on her leg.
140
But I knew in addition to the pain, she felt real joy.
141
And I felt joy as well, especially when I sat here at my commencement in 1985.
142
I understand, I really understand how much hard work it took for all of you to get to this point.
143
And you should feel enormous pride just as I did.
144
On my commencement day, I was content if my Harvard degree was the first thing people knew about me.
145
But what I have found, after all these years, is that I am fine with Harvard being the last thing anyone knows about me.
146
This is not a diss on this institution in any way.
147
I just believe that status, even when it's hard won, can be double -edged.
148
When I started my career hosting a late -night talk show, there was no internet at.
149
The only thing the media knew about Conan O 'Brien was that he went to Harvard.
150
That association may have been fine if I were a burgeoning philosopher or physicist, but for a comedian, that was a death knell.
151
People thought the name of my show would be Late Night with He Thinks He's Better Than You, which I would have gone with,
152
but it didn't fit on the shirt.
153
All these years later, Harvard is far, far from the very first thing people think of when they hear my name.
154
I have made 10 ,000 hours of content, and none of it screams
155
Ivy League education.
156
That's right, I'm the man who went on Hot Ones and rubbed hot sauce on my nipples.
157
I shopped for weed with Kevin Hart and Ice Cube.
158
I got drunk in an American Girl doll store.
159
I've done many things no man should do.
160
And all of this was before I became a Pixar potty training toy.
161
Now, some of you may think, well, that's comedy, Conan.
162
How does that apply to me?
163
And to you I say, how dare you interrupt?
164
I'm giving a commencement address.
165
Yes, my challenges were unique to me.
166
But I found that any single achievement,
167
like a Harvard diploma, becomes less important to me in all the very best ways when I embrace certain principles.
168
The first is that I endeavor to always remind myself that I have done absolutely nothing alone own.
169
Walt Whitman wrote, I contain multitudes.
170
Well, I contain a breakfast sandwich and an iced coffee from Tate,
171
but whatever I have achieved has been with the help of an infinitely packed clown car of multitudes.
172
If I could invite everybody, alive or dead, who has contributed to my being your commencement speaker today,
173
all of Cambridge and half of Alston would be crammed shoulder to shoulder with friends, family, well -wishers, writers, producers,
174
haters, fans, and a billion chance encounters.
175
Recognizing that my accomplishments are not just my own has given me much -needed balance throughout my life
176
and it really helps to spread the blame around when things go south.
177
Another thing I learned to do that has saved me repeatedly is to pivot.
178
I have had to course -correct so many times in my career
179
that my path is a crazed tangles of zigs and zags.
180
I famously lost a job that meant the world to me
181
and then years later I saw the entire format of late -night television, something that I had dedicated my career to, start to evaporate.
182
So at the suggestion of a very smart friend, I started a podcast.
183
I actually had disdain for the project until, with the help of guests, collaborators, and an assistant addicted to gummies,
184
I made something I love just as much, if not more, than my late -night show.
185
I have had to pivot like this so many times that I've come to really love pivoting.
186
And I use the word pivot much more than I should in conversation and commencement speeches.
187
And now I pivot to my next truth.
188
I always recognize the enormous role of luck in my life.
189
Refusing to see how luck has played a role in anyone's success is simply ignorant.
190
Many people are happy to mistake a lucky poker hand for their own brilliance, and fighting that human instinct has kept me sane.
191
I honestly believe that community, spontaneity, and a real commitment to humility has helped me build a rich life
192
that means much more to me than any diploma.
193
And believe me, I'm not saying the goal is to renounce accomplishments, but rather to metabolize them.
194
If you carry your victories lightly, other qualities, kindness, originality, courage,
195
humor, and humanity have room to emerge.
196
Maybe, maybe, maybe the greatest lessons I've learned along these lines have been through my 24 travel shows.
197
I have degraded myself in Cuba, Ghana, Korea, Armenia, half of Europe, Argentina, Thailand, Mexico, and Greenland,
198
where I visited a real estate office and tried to buy the country.
199
When I travel to another land, every quality I have discussed,
200
community, adaptation, and a sincerely humble approach are all necessary.
201
When you don't speak the language, no one truly cares where you went to college and you have no choice but to make friends.
202
It's on these travels that I learned a great lesson, let yourself be bad at things.
203
I have been a bad dancer in every country I have visited,
204
but the people laugh because it turns out everyone everywhere is related to at least one terrible dancer.
205
For me, humility on these trips can easily lead to humiliation, which is also a useful tool.
206
Three weeks ago, I visited Amsterdam, dressed up as Van Gogh, and forced my way into the Van Gogh Museum,
207
where I started loudly demanding a cut of the merchandising because I made no money during my lifetime.
208
Guards forcibly ejected me.
209
I was roundly mocked by patrons for my pathetic display, but I did see a lot of smiles and not one person said,
210
now that's a Harvard grad.
211
In Tokyo, I met with a teacher of Japanese etiquette.
212
who volunteered I wasn't her type.
213
And when I asked her why, she just said, face.
214
In Ghana, after accepting a royal invitation, I was kicked out of the Ashanti palace by the Queen Mother because her favorite soap opera was starting.
215
I understand that I am preaching modesty and connection at a time when this is not in style.
216
We are living through a period of extreme narcissism.
217
Our current leadership in Washington believes that empathy is a weakness and that our nation stands supreme and alone.
218
Add to that, everyone here today has a phone in their pocket
219
that is algorithmically programmed to celebrate you and you alone by making you the protein -maxing hero of your own special journey.
220
Much has been written about how isolated and siloed we've become, but for me, the antidote is quite simple.
221
By de -emphasizing what makes us special, in your case, a prize degree, we can really find one another, not as an exercise in virtue,
222
but as a path towards greater laughter, love, and real growth.
223
And believe me, I struggle daily with my own pretensions.
224
I am aware
225
that I am telling
226
you to transcend your glories as I stand on this stage accepting a doctorate I didn't really earn
227
while dressed like a 12th century pope.
228
Big surprise!
229
I have a giant ego!
230
I mean, come on, the titles of my shows have been A Late Night with Conan O 'Brien, The Tonight Show with Conan O 'Brien, Conan!
231
Where did I think of that one?
232
Conan O 'Brien Needs a Friend and Conan O 'Brien Must Go.
233
I fought like hell to have today's ceremony named Conan O
234
'Brien Presents The Harvard Commencement starring Conan O 'Brien yeah let's get that done
235
so when I realized that my message today would be about the rejection of honor
236
and status did I concert or can I consider for a second turning this doctorate down did I say no
237
President Garber my achievements are not my own I must decline.
238
Hell no!
239
Not for a second!
240
My grandfather, who everyone called Hoofer, and who had to drop out of the seventh grade to support his parents,
241
was a traffic cop in Worcester, Massachusetts.
242
Yeah, and he had a saying, take what you can get and ask for more.
243
Very wise man.
244
Hoofer is an essential passenger in my clown car of multitudes.
245
And in his honor, I will grab this doctorate and then ask
246
President Garber if there's also a cash component.
247
You see, I, like you, am still very much a work in progress.
248
But the ideals I stress today have made my life infinitely richer and happier.
249
So maybe my wish for you is not that
250
Harvard becomes the last thing people know about you, but instead that
251
Harvard becomes the least important thing people know about you.
252
Because your real education starts now, with friends you've made and friends you've yet to meet,
253
with stunning successes and miserable defeats, and with a humble acceptance that your greatness comes from the mess around you, not despite it.
254
From the depths of my heart, I congratulate you, Class of 2026, not for any piece of paper you receive today,
255
but because of your hard work, determination, humanity, and the boundless community that you have
256
and will create let us all resolve on this great day to go forward together and see
257
Toy Story 5 in theaters everywhere June 19th thank you
258
Thank you.

- Âm “th”: theater /ˈθi(ə)tɚ/, gather /ˈɡæðɚ/, bath /bɑːθ/, worthy /ˈwɝ.ði/, seventh /ˈsɛvənθ/
- Âm “sh” và “zh”: institution /ˌɪn.stɪˈtʃuː.ʃən/, assure /əˈʃʊɹ/, accomplishment /əˈkɑm.plɪʃ.mənt/, exception /əkˈsɛpʃən/, preparation /ˌpɹɛpəˈɹeɪʃ(ə)n/

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
