“Engineering gave us the tools to build incredible things—but Duke gave us the courage, curiosity, and community to decide what’s truly worth building. So wherever we go next—whether it’s designing bridges, rockets, software, or entirely new communities—I hope we build with purpose. I hope we build with heart. And above all, I hope we never forget the people, right here, who taught us how.”
