Kermit the Frog Addresses University of Maryland Students
Kermit took the podium in a muppet-size formal cap and gown on Thursday to deliver a commencement speech at the University of Maryland, the alma mater of his creator, Jim Henson.
Life is not a solo act. No it’s not. It’s a big, messy, delightful ensemble piece. So as you prepare to take this big leap into real life, here’s a little advice, If you’re willing to listen to a frog. Rather than jumping over someone to get what you want, consider reaching out your hand and taking the leap side by side because life is better when we leap together. Yeah, Jim, in the early days, he had a hand in literally everything I did. I know that you will stay connected to your families, your friends and your dreams because life’s like a movie. Write your own ending. Keep believing. Keep pretending you’ve all done just what you set out to do. And you’re just getting started. Thank you, University of Maryland. Thank you for having me. And congratulations to the Class of 2025. Yay!
