师德师风演讲稿《爱，教师的职责》
尊敬的各位领导和全体教师：
你们好!学校领导要我来参加这次演讲会，既没有命题，也没有说限定在几分钟之内，让我感到为难，这是我遇到的第一个困难;这天我是第一次登台演讲，有一种不适应的感觉，这是我遇到的第二个困难;况且，刚才前面的几位老师又做了精彩的演讲，热烈的掌声能够作证。这给我增加了压力，算是我遇到的第三个困难。
但是，我并不胆怯，相反，我充满了信心。我相信，既然我站到了这个讲台上来，我就必定能够鼓起勇气，竭尽全力，让自己体面地走下台去!因为我选择了这样一个演讲题目--------《爱，教师的职责》!
朋友，作为教师，你是否有这样的感觉：爱品学兼优的“尖子”学生容易------这种爱常常是自然而然地，由衷产生地，而对所谓“差生”就不那么容易爱得起来了。
你是否留心过生活中有这样的镜头：一个学习成绩好的学生能获得师生、父母的重视，被爱着;而一个成绩不好的学生则若无其人地被忽略这，爱与他们无缘。
殊不知，正是这样的学生更需要人们的爱，因为他们有苦恼，甚至与自卑。他们的心，有更多需要被人理解的东西。
当然，爱这样的“差生”，需要付出必须的代价，牺牲一些时间，花费一些精力。但是这种爱更有价值，更为人称道。或许这种爱，未必必须能在学习上显出效果来，但是它使人心热，使人不再陷入消沉痛苦，从而产生用心的效果。
这我是有着多么深刻的体会啊!
我是带着稚气踏入学校大门的。记得刚进入学校大门的那一天，我是多么欢喜，因为我也最后拥有了黑板、粉笔、教鞭，有了一大群学生。
听说做教师最重要的就是“威严”。于是，为了拉开我年龄上与学生过于相近的距离，掩饰我性格上的天真。幼稚，弥补初登教坛在教学上存在的许多不足，一句话，为了叫孩子们信服我，我课内课外板起了我本来友善和蔼的面孔。果然，半学期过后，我的“弟子”们变得服服帖帖了，路上，他们见到我，想笑，但脸上的肌肉扯不开来，因为怕我，想视而不见又不敢，因为我明文规定，见到来时要有礼貌，于是，只好颤着嗓音，挤出一句“老师好”，随即变低下头去，一溜烟地不见了。有时，他们在教室门口嬉耍，只要听说我“驾到”，变吓的鸡飞鼠跳，最后钉在座位上，大气不出。这种场面，虽然多少使我感到某种隐约的失意与不安，但终究制服了学生，并因而获得了纪律优胜流动红旗，期末，还被评为先进班级，我也获得了优秀教师的称号。这些胜利，一下子便将那些阴影一扫而光，我陶醉在自豪于得意之中。
然而不久，一件意想不到的事情把我击醒了。班上有位男孩子叫小峰，他学习基础差，经常不完成作业，而我对他不是挖苦就是讥讽，要不就是板着的面孔。有一次，他作业没完成，我不问青红皂白，就对他下了“逐客令”：“回家补”。他鼓起勇气，怯生生地说“老师，我在学校补吧”。我冷笑一声，幸灾乐祸地说：“怎样，怕挨打?还是回去好，挨打不要紧，只要记住疼，以后就会写作业了。”他走了，我的心也“宽”了然而他下午没有来，我的心不安了。我的良心牵着我走到了他家，他并没有回家补作业，只是对妈妈说：“妈妈，我不念书了，我给您放猪。”我形容不出当时听到这句话时自己的感受，只觉得像有一只巨手紧紧地揪住了我的心。自责、忏悔、镂心蚀骨的痛楚阵阵袭来。小峰渴望谅解，渴望温暖，渴望关怀，我，作为一名人民教师，孩子的班主任，对他是什么态度?真正把他看作是人民的后代祖国的期望了吗?羞愧啊、羞愧，教师这一神圣的职责，被我亵渎了!
记得有一位乡村女教师，她没有值得炫耀的文凭，没有一点先进的教学设施，但她有着一颗母亲的心，一双园丁的手，她以无私的爱、彩色的笑、博大的胸怀，温柔的臂膀抚慰着一群有着不同程度残疾的孩子，取得了惊人的成绩。
我醒悟了：我虽有着她所没有的，但她所具备的则正是我所缺乏的。我若还一味地保住自己的所谓“威严”能保证不会出现第二、第三个小峰吗?严峻的教训催我自省，教我悔悟。
于是，我找回了一度失去了的童心，并将它们跟孩子们的心融汇到了一齐。孩子们变的笑了，活跃了，不再怕我了，爱上我了。
当我用爱的火焰融化了学生心里冰块儿的时候，我像是看到了春苗在萌发;当我用智慧的钥匙为学生打开通向理想大门的时候，我仿佛闻到了百花的芳香;当我住进医院醒来看见孩子们围在我床前的时候，我好像飘游在爱的海洋;当我和同学们欢歌笑语的时候，我似乎感到青春的旋律在身上跳荡;当我新年收到孩子们贺年片的时候，我宛如喝着一杯玉液琼浆.........朋友，听到那里，您难道不感到作为一个教师的欣慰和幸福吗?
我深深地体会到，要启开孩子们心灵的大门，教师务必付出最大的热情，因为一切最好的教育方法，一切最好的教学艺术，都产生在教师对学生的无比热爱的炙热心灵之中。
要明白，爱能够化冷漠为热情，化忧郁为振奋，化悲伤为喜悦，化懒惰为勤奋。爱是真正促使人复苏的动力。这种爱每个人就应贡献，每个人就应获得。
让我们去爱吧，使我们周围充满爱的温馨，切记：他们更需要爱;爱，教师的职责!

敬爱的老师、亲爱的同学们：
大家好!
今天，我们在这里隆重聚会，举行新学期第一次升旗仪式，能作为学生代表在这里发言，我感到十分光荣和自豪。
时光飞逝，转眼间，在这个金秋的九月，我们又迎来了新的学期。新学期，我们将迎来新的生活，所以我们要以更饱满的精神，更乐观的心态，更健壮的体魄来完成新的任务。
新学期开学了，看着初一新入学的学弟学妹们，我不由地联想到刚入学时的自己，那时的好奇与激动，我想，学弟学妹们现在也一定感受得到。
公中是一所具有光荣革命传统的学校，一代代公中人为公明中学书写了辉煌的历史。作为一名公中学生，我们时刻要以一名合格中学生的标准来要求自己，努力做到：
一、刻苦学习，课上认真听讲，积极回答问题，独立认真完成作业，勇于创新，使自己的知识更丰富。
二、尊敬老师，团结同学，积极参加各种文体活动，让自己德、智、体、美全面发展。
三、严格遵守学校的各种规章制度，用《中学生守则》和《中学生日常行为规范》来要求自己。
四、为自己初中生活作一个合理的计划，确定自己的目标，让三年的初中生活充实而有意义。
上届初三在中考中取得了辉煌的成绩，“长江后浪推前浪”，所以，我们无论是初一、初二还是初三都应该更加努力，这是为了公中的明天，也是为了我们的明天。
最后，祝大家学业进步。

老师们、同学们：
大家好：
愉快而又短暂的暑假生活已告结束。当你们回到校园，不仅看到了熟悉的校园，见到了亲切的同学和老师，我们还发现，我们的教室、校园都发生了变化，让同学们感到焕然一新!请同学们在开学伊始，用你们充满智慧的双眼，细心观察，用文字记录学校的变化和给心中的喜悦，看看哪些同学的文章能够展示在校园的橱窗里,供大家学习和欣赏。
同学们：本学期，一年级的新同学也走进我们这个大家庭，成为我们这个家庭的一员。在这里，我代表体教师，对新同学的到来表示最热烈的欢迎!希望同学们把新同学当成自己的弟弟和妹妹，去关心、呵护他们!
过去的一年，在全体师生的共同努力下，学校取得了不少成绩，同学们也获得了不少荣誉。这是全校师生刻苦努力、勤奋学习的结果，更是老师们用心血和汗水为同学们铺垫成功之路的结果，它必将鼓舞我们满怀信心地迎接新学期的开始。
新学期的钟声已经敲响，同学们，老师们，相信你们已经做好了踏上新征程的一切准备。
在新学期里，我们领导班子将和老师们一起，以更务实，希望全体教师，以更勤奋，更踏实，更敬业的工作态度，以更严格，更认真，更进取的工作作风，以更科学，更规范，更细致的管理目标，全心全意为学生服务，努力提高教育教学质量和办学水平。
在新的学期里，我还想向同学们提出几点希望：
一、要迈好新学期第一步，并坚持不懈
请同学们庄重对待第一次升旗仪式，上好第一节课，争取第一个发言，写好第一次作业，走好第一次路队，做好第一次课间操，完成好第一次值日等等，照此下去，坚持不懈，让每一个最好的第一次的累积，都成为你们成长的印迹。
二、要讲文明，守秩序，做文明学生
讲文明就是要从小事做起，自觉遵守学校的各项规章制度和《小学生日常行为规范》，要爱护公物，团结同学，孝敬父母，尊敬师长。要学会并懂得感恩，感恩对自己付出心血和辛劳的所有人!做到不打架、不骂人，不讲粗话，不欺负小同学，不乱扔果皮纸屑。每一个同学都要有高度的责任意识，对自己负责，对班级负责，对学校负责。同学们要学会用正确的方法处理问题，培养健康向上的心态，努力使自己成为有教养、有社会公德的小学生。
三，要勤学习，爱钻研，争取好成绩
同学们，千里之行，始于足下。一切的成绩就都要从现在的努力开始，都要从现在的点滴小事做起。希望同学们在老师的帮助下，制定一个好的学习计划，认真努力的学习。严格要求自己，养成良好的学习和行为习惯，争做一名全面发展的学生。
同学们，一个人的成长是需要付出艰辛的努力的。不管是学习，还是好习惯的养成，包括各个学科的学习提高，都需要有持之以恒的努力，坚持不懈地毅力。学习是很辛苦的，但这里面有快乐!什么是学习的快乐?我想，当你通过努力不断进步时，你一定会感受到这种快乐!我希望每一位同学都有这种快乐，也希望你把这种学习的快乐告诉你的老师，告诉你的父母，我们一起分享你的快乐!因此，希望大家能够在学习的时候静下心来，在老师们的帮助下努力学习，克服懒惰思想及为难情绪，力争将自己该做的事情做好，用勤奋和努力去收获希望，用行动回报爸爸妈妈，为自己，为学校争光!
四、要树立安全意识，为自己的声明负责
要学会负责，不仅对社会、家庭负责，更要学会对自己负责。首先要对自身的安全负责，自觉遵守国家的各项法律法规，特别是交通法规，保障自己与他人的人身安全。同时还要严格遵守和执行《小学生日常行为规范》和学校各项规章制度，确保自己在学校的人生安全。今年各种事故频发，泥石流、交通在我们震惊、痛心和叹息之余，我们要更多地要思考如何珍惜自己的生命，避免悲剧的发生。
同学们，“宝剑锋从磨砺出，梅花香自苦寒来。”我们只有付出了，才会有收获。相信在学校领导的关心下，在老师的辛勤培育下，经过我们不懈的努力，几年后，我们一定会成长为有理想，有道德，有文化，守纪律的合格小学生，给社会，给学校，给家庭一份合格的答卷。
最后，我衷心祝愿同学们在新的学期学习进步、身体健康，也祝愿我们的老师们工作顺利、身体健康!
祝同学们新学期学习进步!生活快乐!
祝老师们新学期工作顺利!

亲爱的老师、同学们：
早上好!
酷夏的暑气还没有消退，我们已迎来金灿灿的秋天，迎来了一个崭新的学期，今天是本学期的第一次升旗。同学们面对徐徐升起的五星红旗，你们在想什么呢?作为一个小学生，如何使自己成为家庭的好孩子、学校的好学生、社会的好少年呢?将来如何更好地适应新形势的需求，把自己塑造成为符合时代潮流的、能为社会做出贡献的合格人才呢?在这里，我仅以学生代表的名义为我们的共同成长提出新学期的希望和要求：
1、做一个讲文明、懂礼仪的好学生。
遇到师长、来宾，主动问好;上下楼梯，人多拥挤，注意谦让，靠右行走，保障畅通;讲究卫生，不乱扔果皮，见到纸屑随时捡;爱护公共财物，不乱写乱划;严格遵守学校规章制度，相互监督，共同进步!营造一个整洁、舒适、美丽的校园。
2、做一个健康的学生。
健康就是拥有良好的体魄和良好的心理素质。健康的身体是我们学习、生活的根本保证。我们要掌握基本的生活技能，培养健康的`审美情趣，发展特长，为将来的发展打下良好的基础。学习成绩达到“更高、更好、更上一层楼”。为此，希望我们在新的一学期，利用课间或者体育课时间多运动，锻炼自己的体魄。
3、做一个快乐的学生。
快乐就是我们每天要保持一份好的心情。那么如何保持呢?全心全意地做好一件事情，合理地安排时间，培养自己的兴趣爱好，多看看课外书，练练字，专心听每一节课，及时认真的完成每一次的作业，认真地对待每一次考试还有很多很多，这些都会给我们带来快乐!
4、做一名会合作的学生。
那么什么是合作呢?简单地来说，就是你和你的同伴们一起认真地完成一件事。比如一起合作打扫好教室卫生，一起合作解决很难的问题，一起合作制作一样小物品，一起合作帮别人做好事，在合作中，我们一定能学会更多的本领!
5、做一个锐意进取的学生。
什么是进取?就是要不断地努力，就是要好好学习，天天向上。就是我们用顽强的意志，坚持不懈地学习，不管你的基础如何，同样都会取得成绩，获得成功。有这么一句诗：欲穷千里目，更上一层楼。学习做为我们的第一任务，我们就要不断地努力，在知识的山峰上攀得更高，走得更远。
6、做一名安全小卫士
在安全方面，我们要遵守学校的安全公约，听从老师指挥，出操、课间活动都要把安此全放在第一位，绝不开展危险性游戏。未满12周岁的学生不得独自骑自行车，要注意交通安全，遵守交通规则，不得在公路上乱跑，不准擅自到河里溜冰，不准玩火、玩电等。保证高高兴兴上学，平平安安回家。
今天，我们要将新学期视为一个新的起点，以全新的精神面貌投入学习和生活之中。遵守学校规章制度，尊敬老师，刻苦学习，热爱劳动，关心他人，善于合作，以优异的成绩回报我们的父母。我们相信：有了老师和我们共同努力，团结拼搏，我们柳河学校的明天一定会更美好，更辉煌!最后祝每位老师身体健康，工作顺利，心想事成;每位同学快乐成长，学习进步，前程似锦!
开学典礼演讲稿范文 篇5
新的学期，新的希望，新的起点，在这充满希望的季节里，你们来到了我们可爱的校园。在这温暖的大家庭里我们要像羊羊们一样互助互爱、努力奋斗，经历风雨、沐浴阳光。在这里老师用真诚的爱与你们的心灵对话，努力营造一个有利于你们个性发展的班级环境。
亲爱的同学们，早上好!老师相信大家暑假里都看过《喜羊羊与灰太狼》的故事吧。老师希望大家在这个学期里会成为我美丽的美羊羊、聪明的喜羊羊、强壮的沸羊羊，温顺的暖羊羊。我希望能和羊羊们一起将这间教室打造的比的羊村更美丽、更温馨。
新的学期，新的希望，新的起点，在这充满希望的季节里，你们来到了我们可爱的校园。在这温暖的大家庭里我们要像羊羊们一样互助互爱、努力奋斗，经历风雨、沐浴阳光。在这里老师用真诚的爱与你们的心灵对话，努力营造一个有利于你们个性发展的班级环境，让我们在和谐友爱共进的氛围中健康成长。只有在春天辛勤地耕耘，才会在秋天结出累累硕果。新生活开始了，老师相信同学们一定会满怀信心走向成功。明天，明天就是一个良好的开端。你们都准备好了吗?
对于上一学年的成绩，考得如何都不要感觉失望，也不用得意。
我们要从考试中发现存在的问题。不管考试发挥得不是很理想或者成绩有些退步，这些都是正常的，这说明其他同学也在进步。这是班级竞争力，对你的成长也是有利的。我们应当想办法在新的学期中怎样努力学习，提高成绩，成就自己的梦想。所以从现在开始，我们就应当对自己的学习提出一个切实可行的目标与方案，给自己一点压力，做好预复习工作，找到学习的感觉。
自信是成功的前提。要相信自己，不要对自己丧失信心。我们要抱着每天进步一点点的信念来学习。
同学之间在学习方法要相互交流。考得不怎么好的要分析一下自己学习方法方面的原因：是不适应还是听不懂?向成绩好的同学取取经，为我所用。
在新学期里，同学们要继续切实提高课堂四十分钟的学习效率，减轻学习的负担。
希望同学们在新的一学期，走出以前成绩不良、表现不好的阴影，我们相信，你一定会做得更好。
态度决定一切，行动成就未来。让我们一起努力，从来再来，给自己一个惊喜!

who will tell your story?
may 24, 20xx
greetings, class of 20xx.
and so it is here—the week of your commencement. the days of miracle and wonder when your theses are written, classes have ended, and you still have free hbo. and so it may seem strange to be gathered here today, as we pause for this ancient and curious custom called the baccalaureate—but here we are, me in a pulpit and you in pews, dressed for a sermon in which i am to impart the sober wisdom of age to the semi-sober impatience of youth. now, it is a daunting task. especially since over the course of four years i have succeeded in disconcerting people on all sides of the many issues that you will soon be discussing with parents and grandparents over dinner—so in addition to a speech, for handy reference isquo;ve created a placemat for commencement, filled with useful phrases. such as, itsquo;s squo;final club,squo; without an squo;s.squo;
now, i am truly privileged today, for you are an extraordinary group. your 80 countries of origin do not begin to describe you.
you may remember the day when we escaped the rain at your freshman convocation, and you heard from me and a phalanx of elders in dark robes: connect, we said, make harvard part of your narrative. take risks, we told you. donsquo;t always listen to us.
and for four years you have distinguished yourselves with dazzling variety: in what may be harvardsquo;s most divergent dozen, you produced six rhodes scholars, including one who broke the world record for standing on a swiss exercise ball, plus six athletes invited to the national football league to play ball, players whose interests range from the ministry to curing infectious diseases.
you were good at long distances: you probed the atmosphere of an exoplanet; researched antibiotic use on a pig farm in denmark; and you created a pilot program that cut shuttle times from the quad by half.
you experienced old traditions: the mumps. a class color, orange. and the time-honored lampoon theft of the crimson presidentsquo;s chair—this time transporting it across state lines to manhattansquo;s trump tower, for a staged photo op with a then dark-horse presidential candidate.
you found your way: on campus, through a maze of renovations and swing housing; onstage, doing stand-up comedy on nbc, dancing in bogota, and mounting black magic at the loeb; through the halls of business and finance, running an intercollegiate investment fund; and exposing a privacy issue with facebooksquo;s messenger app.
you won, with style and grace: as you captured the first national trophy for harvard mock trial—by being funnier than yale; and then you shellacked the bulldogs in the game for—yes—the 9th straight year; you produced the first ivy three-peats in football and womensquo;s track; and brought home the first ivy crown in womensquo;s rugby—how fierce and beautiful was that!
and, of course, all this was powered by huds, since 20xx, powered with ceaseless servings of swai.
and you were just plain good: you wrote prize-winning theses on sea level change, a water crisis in detroit; you engineered a better barbecue smoker—and tested it in a blizzard; you joined the fight to end malaria; and earned the award for best hockey player in the ncaa for strength of character as well as skill; you became well connected—to alzheimersquo;s patients, to kids in kenya, to homeless youth; and, as the inaugural class of ed school teacher fellows, 20 of you are preparing to help high-need students rise.
and i understand you even rested with ambition, as you tried to netflix and chill.
you made it all look easy—all while facing blows to the spirit that have tempered and tested you. you arrived just after a breach of academic trust that, by your senior year, produced the first honor code in harvardsquo;s history, events that raised hard questions for all of us: what is success? what is integrity? to whom, or what, are we accountable?
when a hurricane prompted the first harvard closing in 34 years, you rallied with generosity and goodwill—and did so again when we closed for snowstorm nemo—the fifth largest in boston history. and that was just a warm up, so to speak, for the winter of our misery—the worst in boston history—when you sledded the slopes of widener in a kayak.
and when the bombs went off at the boston marathon, in just your second semester, we considered still larger questions: who are we? what matters most? what do we owe to one another? you told me that you became bostonians that day, bonded to a city beyond harvard square, and to each other during the manhunt and lockdown, when the university closed for an unprecedented third time in 6 months.
who can forget the images—of the mayhem, of the people who ran, not for safety, buttoward the danger, into the chaos? the army veteran, who smelled cordite, and expecting more bombs, saved a college studentsquo;s life; the man in the cowboy hat, who ripped away fencing in order to reach the most injured. and who can forget the moment when red sox first baseman david ortiz stood in the center of fenway park and said in eleven words of fellowship and defiance that the fcc chose not to censor, though i will today—this is our [bleeping] city and nobody[squo;s] gonna dictate our freedom.
a few months ago as i was lucky enough to be sitting in a broadway theater, absorbing the final number of the musical hamilton, i thought of you, and that fierce spirit of inclusion and self-determination. i watched as eliza, center stage, sang, i put myself back in the narrative, and asked the question in the title of her song, who lives, who dies, who tells your story?, the spirited summation of a production that, like you, has broken records. like you, has created a new drama inside a very old one.
harvard, one might say, is a bastion of opportunity and unimaginable good fortune—for all of us, who find a place, with varying degrees of comfort, at the center of its long and successful narrative. and yet the burden is on us—to locate the discomfort, to act on the restless spirit of that legacy. as i thought about speaking to you here today, it occurred to me how much the question in that final song has framed your time here, and how much it will continue to affect your lives, as college graduates, as harvard alumni, as citizens and as leaders. who will tell your story?
you. you will tell your story. that is the point that i want to leave you with today. telling your own story, a fresh story, full of possibility and a new order of things, is the task of every generation, and the task before you. and that task is exactly what your liberal arts education has prepared you to do, in three vital ways:
first, telling your own story means discovering who you are, and not what others think you should be. it means being mindful of others, but deciding for yourself. itsquo;s easy to tell a tale that others define, the one they expect to hear. a moment ago i sketched your harvard history. but what did i leave out? one of harvardsquo;s legendary figures and reverend waltonsquo;s predecessor, the reverend peter gomes, used to put it this way: donsquo;t let anyone finish your sentences for you. he loved being a paradox, an unpredictable surprise, but always true to himself: a republican in cambridge; a gay baptist preacher; black president of the pilgrim society—afro-saxon, as he sometimes put it. playful. unapologetic. unbounded by otherssquo; expectations. my anomalies, he once said, make it possible to advance the conversation.
advance the conversation. this is my next point. telling our own stories is not just about us. it is a conversation with others, exploring larger purposes and other worlds and different ways of thinking. your education is not a bubble. think of it as an escape hatch, from what nigerian novelist and former radcliffe fellow chimamanda adichie calls the danger of a single story. she has observed, [h]ow impressionable and vulnerable we are in the face of a story. not because it may be untrue, but because, in her words, [stories] are incomplete. they make one story become the only story, even though [m]any stories matter. for four years you have learned the rewards of other stories, and the risk of critical misunderstandings when they go unheard—whether those stories emerge from the office for lgbtq life, or the black lives matter movement, or the international conversation on sexual assault—and perhaps most powerfully, from one another. this is precious knowledge. only by knowing that other stories are possible can we imagine a different future. what will medicine look like in the 21st century? energy? migration? how will cities be designed? the question, as one of you wrote in the crimson, is not what am [i] going to be, but what problem do [i] solve?
which brings me to my final point: keep revising. every story is only a draft. we re-tell even our oldest sagas—whether of hamilton and the american revolution or of harvard itself. the best education prepares you because it is unsettling, an obstacle course that forces us to question and push and reinvent ourselves, and the world, in a new way. steven spielberg, who will speak to us on thursday, has explained the foundation of his powerful storytelling. he says: fear is my fuel. i get to the brink of not knowing what to do and thatsquo;s when i get my best ideas.
what is a university but a place where everyone should feel equally sure to be unsure? our best discoveries can start out as mistakes. as herbie hancock told us, his mentor jazz legend miles davis, said there is no playing a wrong note, only a surprising one, whose meaning depends on whatever you play next.
in the evolving universe of profiles and hashtags and selfies, it seems no accident that you are the class of snapchat—a platform that took hold when you were freshmen and developed with you, from showing snaps to telling and sharing stories—stories that vanish every day, to be replaced by new stories, free of likes or followers. an app that, in the words of a founder, isnsquo;t about capturing … what[squo;s] pretty or perfect … but … creates a space to … communicat[e] with the full range of human emotion.
and so for four years you have been learning to re-tell things: finding your voices, putting yourself in a narrative, whether that was demanding action against climate change, discovering that you love statistics, or creating the powerful message of i, too, am harvard. you have seen things re-told. even harvardsquo;s story. last month one of my heroes, congressman john lewis, came to harvard yard to unveil a plaque on wadsworth house, documenting the presence of four enslaved individuals who lived in the households of two harvard presidents. john lewis said, we try to forget but the voices of generations have been calling us to remember. titus, venus, bilhah and juba—their lives change our story. after three centuries, they have a voice. they, too, are harvard.
telling a new story isnsquo;t easy. it can take courage, and resolve. it often means leaving the safe path for the unknown, compelled, as john lewis put it, to disturb the order of things. and during your years here you have learned to make, as he urged, good trouble, necessary trouble.
for years i have been telling students: find what you love. do what matters to you. it might be physics or neuroscience, or filmmaking or finance. but donsquo;t settle for plot b, the safe story, the expected story, until you have tried plot a, even if it might require a miracle. i call this the parking space theory of life. donsquo;t park 10 blocks away from your destination because you are afraid you wonsquo;t find a closer space. donsquo;t miss your spot—donsquo;t throw away your shot. go to where you think you want to be. you can always circle back to where you have to be. this can require patience and determination. steven spielberg was, in fact, late to class his first day as a student at california state university, because, as he put it, i had to park so far away. he went on to sneak onto movie sets, no matter how many times he got thrown off.
you shouldn't dream your film, he has said, you should make it!
perhaps this is the new jurassic parking space theory of life—donsquo;t just tell your story, live it. your future is not a . itsquo;s an attitude, a way of being that can create a new narrative no one may have thought possible, let alone probable:
jeremy lin—harvard graduate, asian-american—changed the narrative of professional basketball, still sizzling with linsanity when you arrived as freshmen.
think about stephen hawking, who spoke to us last month through a speech synthesizer. he changed the narrative of the universe, a story about what ultimately will become of all our stories—one he has been revising since he was your age, when he was given three years to live.
and you are already changing the story:
think of the astrophysics and mythology concentrator who started a mentorship program for women of color to change the narrative of who enters stem fields, and she wrote a science fiction novel to tell a new research-based story about the galaxy.
or think of the second lieutenant—one of 12 new harvard officers—who will serve her country in the u.s. marines, battling not only the enemy, but persistent gender divides. how will that change, she says, unless we start now?
and think about the pre-med student who found himself literally running away from campus, fleeing in misery, until he suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned back, because he remembered he needed to be at a theater rehearsal where he had stage managing responsibilities. some 20 productions later, he has a theater directing fellowship for next year, and even his parents, as he puts it, now believe that i am an artist.
value the ballast of custom, the foundations of knowledge, the weight of expectation. they, too, are important. but donsquo;t be afraid to defy them.
and donsquo;t worry, as you feel the tug of these final days together. i am here to tell you that your harvard story is never done. in 1978, two freshmen watched a screening of the movielove story in the science center. three decades later, they met for the first time. and their wedding story appeared last month in the new york times.
so, congratulations, class of 20xx. donsquo;t forget from whence you came. change the narrative. rewrite the story. there is no one i would rather trust with that task.
go well, 20xx.
哈佛校长福斯特演讲中文
人们也许会说哈佛是天堂，充满了各种难以想象的机遇和好运——确实，我们每个人都有幸在她漫长而成功的历史中占有一席之地。但这也对我们提出了要求：我们有责任走出自己的舒适区，寻找属于我们的挑战，践行哈佛奋斗不息的精神。
在我准备今天演讲的时候， 我想到了音乐剧《汉密尔顿》中最后那首歌里的问题：
谁来讲述你的故事?
我想这个问题奠定了你们过去四年大学生活的基调，也将对你们未来作为哈佛毕业生和校友的生活产生深远的影响，无论是作为公民或是领袖——
谁，来讲述你的故事?
是你，你要来讲述你的故事!
这就是今天我要对你们说的话：讲你自己的故事，一个充满了无限可能性和新秩序的崭新故事，这是每一代人的任务，也是现在摆在你面前的任务。你在哈佛所接受的文理博雅教育，将会用以下三种重要方式，帮助你去完成这项任务。
听别人的建议，做你自己的决定
讲述你的故事意味着发现你自己是谁——而不是成为别人认为你的谁。你要参考别人的意见，但要做出自己的决定。讲述一个别人定义好的或别人希望听到的故事，那太容易了。
哈佛的传奇人物之一、可敬的彼得·戈麦斯教授曾说：不要让任何人替你把话说完。
戈麦斯教授自己经常自相矛盾，令人难以捉摸，但永远忠于他自己：他是一位剑桥市的共和党人(注：在哈佛所在的剑桥市，共和党是少数派);他是一位浸礼会的牧师，但同时是个同性恋(注：基督教大多不支持同性恋);他是朝圣者协会的会长，同时又是一位黑人(注：朝圣者协会白人居多)。
他对自己的信仰坚定不移，他不为外人的期望牵挂束缚。他说：我的不同寻常，让开启新的对话变为可能。
开启与他人的对话，倾听他人的故事
开启新的对话，这是我的下一个重点。讲述我们自己的故事并不意味着只关注我们自己。讲故事是与他人对话，借此探寻更远大的目标、探索其他的世界、探究不同的思维方式——你所受的教育不是一个真空的大泡沫。
如果我们只讲述单一的故事，那将是危险的，就像诺大的场地只有一个逃生口，令所有人变得异常脆弱。单一的故事不一定是假的，但它是不完整的。所有的故事都很重要，不能把单一角度的故事变成唯一的故事。
过去四年，你们感受到了倾听他人故事的益处，也体验到了忽略他人故事所带来的危险。只有意识到，世界上充满了各种各样的故事，我们才能想象一个不一样的未来。21世纪的医疗是什么样?能源是什么样?移民是什么样?城市将如何设计?面对这些问题，你要问的不是我会成为什么样的人，而是
我能解决什么问题?
在不安和不确定中，不断修正你的故事
这也引出了最后一个重点：不断修正。每个故事其实都只是一个草稿，我们连最古老的传说都会不断拿来重提——不管是汉密尔顿将军的故事、美国独立战争的史诗、亦或是哈佛自己的历史。
好的教育之所以好，是因为它让你坐立不安，它强迫你不断重新认识我们自己和我们周遭的世界，并不断去改变。
斯蒂芬·斯皮尔伯格将在毕业典礼上为我们演讲，他就曾经这样解释他创作的基石：恐惧是我的动力。当我濒临走投无路的时候，那也是我遇见最好的想法的时候。
大学，不正是这样一个让每一个人都接受挑战、让每一个人都产生不确定性的地方吗?
就这样，大学四年间，你都一直在学习重新讲述你的故事：寻找你自己的声音，将自己放入一个故事中——无论是对气候变化采取反抗行动，发现你对统计学的热衷，还是发起了一项有意义的运动，你亲眼目睹故事不断被重新讲述。
不要妥协，直奔你的目标
这些年，我一直在告诉大家：
追随你所爱!
去从事你真正关心的事业吧，无论是物理还是神经科学，无论是金融还是电影制片。如果你想好了目的地，就直接往那里去吧。这就是我的停车位理论：不要因为觉得肯定没有停车位了，就把车停在距离目的地10个街区远的地方。直接去你想去的地方，如果车位已满，你总可以再绕回来。
所以在这里，我想祝贺你们，20xx届的哈佛毕业生们。别忘了你们来自何处，不断改变你的故事，不断重写你的故事。我相信这项任务除了你们自己，谁也无法替你们完成!
开学典礼演讲稿范文 篇7
尊敬的各位来宾、领导、老师们，亲爱的同学们：
大家上午好!
龙腾祥云xx齐纳天下福，蛇吐瑞气一中共创百态新。又是一年春草绿，在这万物复苏，播种希望的季节里，我们又回到了这熟悉的校园，开始了新的一年的征程。
十八大召开之后，国之新象正悄然绽放。正气之风，反腐之势，简约之浪，改革之潮正袭展全国。大国之姿为国人叫好。再看我校，新百年下的新一中，并没有沉浸在以往的辉煌中，而是在新形势下，锐意改革，谋求突破，在国之新象前，展现着校之新象，正在刷新着一个个曾经属于自己的记录。
一中的前进与成功，也让每一个一中人感到无比荣耀，这也给予了我们强大的精神动力。我和我的同事们为自己是一名一中人而深感骄傲，我们为自己在这里工作而感到自豪。在此，我代表全体教师庄重承诺：我们一定会恪尽职守，努力钻研，精心授课，耐心辅导。我们愿做石子，铺就你们通向似锦前程的道路;我们愿化雄风，托起你们自由翱翔的翅膀;我们愿为渡船，载你们从现实的此岸到达理想的彼岸!
同时，我想对高三的同学说：你们是威武之师。你看：熊昊仁同学单匹马挑战全国高手捧回了xx市第一份高校的录取通知书(清华大学);张 同学沉稳发挥在xx市元月调考中一举夺魁;王 等一批同学已经敲开了高校大门，这是何等的威武霸气。这些振奋人心的消息正在昭示着你们拥有了强大的实力和能力。高三的同学们，做为一名攀登者，请面对最后一座山峰的阻隔时，站稳脚跟，啸傲青山;做为一名跋涉者，请面对最后一道急流的冲击时，扬起风帆，中流击水;做为一名战斗者，请面对最后一个堡垒的挑战时，急勇冲锋，旗开得胜。来吧!高三的战士们，既然没有硝烟的战争早已打响，那就在接下来这关键的100天里，请你们凭借着自己的睿智沉稳，刚毅果敢，一举实现自己的高校梦想，开启个人人生的新旅程。
我想对高二的同学们说：你们是钢铁之师。进校以来，你们就坚持着整齐的步伐，嘹亮的呼号，严明的纪律，统一的步调，严谨的作风，科学的规划。希望你们在新的学期里能将这种优良的作风继续保持下去，承上启下，再接再厉，蓄积能量，以昂扬的斗志，一流的作风，专业的学习，诚恳的心态，开始属于你们的高中生活下半场。
我想对高一的同学们说：你们是活力之师。虽然进校才半年，但你们阳光灵动，活力四射，在多个方面创造了学校的记录，俗话说“好的开始是成功的一半”，愿你们在新的教育模式下，用努力拼搏书写一支奋斗的战歌，用热情投入谱写出一曲昂扬的旋律，创造出新的属于你们的记录。
最后，让我们师生同心，携手并进，用我们的勤奋和汗水，智慧和热情，顺教育之时势，做课改之先锋，闪智慧之光芒，创历史之辉煌，争取在新的一年，开创百年一中的跨越式的新成就!
祝全体同学们快乐生活，学业有成!
祝各位领导、老师工作顺利，身体健康，家庭幸福，生活美满!
谢谢大家!
