2、的星期 五晚上來到波士頓大學。My name is Yujing Cai, and I am a graduate from theMaster of Mathematical Finance program. I come from Nanjing, China, one of the oldest cities in the world. Right now, my family is sitting somewhere over there. They travelled, literally across half of the world to see their baby girl

3、 graduate and talk in a Ianguage they don ' t understand. Therefore, I am treme ndously honored to share my perspective of 6 years at the Questrom School of Busin ess.我的名字是蔡語婧，我碩士畢業(yè)于數(shù)學金融專業(yè)。我來自中國 南京，世界上最古老的城市之一?，F(xiàn)在，我的家人坐在那里。他們旅 行跨越了半個地球來看他們的寶貝女兒畢業(yè)，并用他們不明白的語言演講。因此，我非常榮幸能夠在此分享我在Questrom 商學院六年的感悟。One

5、d in our com muni ty.在等待上課時，我最喜歡做的事情之一就是看著我們商學院大 廳掛著的不同的國旗。有時我還會和朋友們傻傻地比賽，看誰認得出 更多的國旗。而我時常驚訝于我們的學生群體里有這么多不同的文化 和民族的代表。In a com muni ty,so diverse, mutualun dersta ndingdoesn ' t come easily, so I tried hard to be adaptive from the begi nning. Soon, I found myself adjusti ng to the bigger food po

6、rtion, and railways in the middle of the road. I even tried fortunes cookies for the first time in my life! Soon, I felt so content with this progress and I gradually built a cozy nest with people of my culture, my age, and who thought and acted exactly like I did. Why bother talki ng to anyone else

7、? The coursework and job-huntingwere already so tiring,andmeeting people outside my circle just seemed so scary and unn ecessary.在這樣一個多元化的群體里，相互理解并不容易，所以我從一 開始就努力地讓自己適應。很快，我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己適應了這里更大的食量， 和馬路正中間的鐵路。我甚至人生中第一次品嘗了幸運餅干?。ㄐ疫\餅干Fortune Cookie:美式中餐館提供的打開后有祝福紙條的餅干）很快，我滿足于自己的進步，于是我逐漸建立一個充滿了與我的文化背 景，年齡相仿的人的舒適的

8、窩。他們的所思所想都與我相似，我又何 必再和任何其他人交流？學校的課業(yè)和找工作的過程已經(jīng)讓人疲憊不 堪，跨出我自己的圈子去和其他人交往看起來是那么的不必要甚至可 怕。Then one day somethingchanged.It was a normalschool day, and I was in the atrium looking at the flags as always. I saw that the flag of China was surro un ded ni cely by the flags of Can ada, Chile, Colombia, and DR C

9、on go, and suddenly it struck me that I didn ' t know anyone of those n ati on alities. What a waste it was for me to ignore the diversity of experie nee and opinions that the Questrom com munity had to offer! I was determined to change, but it wasn' t easy:而這一天一切改變了。這是一個正常的上課日，我一如既往地 在大廳里看著

10、不同的國旗。我看到中國的國旗被加拿大，智利，哥倫 比亞和剛果民主共和國的國旗很好看地包圍著，突然間我驚覺到我并不認識任何這些國籍的人。我意識到，忽略Questrom 這樣多元化群體提供給我的多樣的經(jīng)驗和觀點是多大的浪費 ！我決心要改變，但這并不容易：I experieneed the awkwardness of having to explain a joke that no one understood, the nervousness of asking questions about other cultures that seemed so obvious and silly, an

13、于別的 文化提出問題但擔心問題過于明顯和愚蠢的緊張感，以及捍衛(wèi)我自己的信念卻只得到懷疑和厭惡時的憤怒。幸運的是，這些不舒適的感受 很快就被別的事情替代了：比如當我教會我的同學們發(fā)音我的姓氏 “蔡”，他們使用到了自己以前都沒注意到的小部分舌頭的時候的快 樂;當我向Questrom 研究生學生會宣傳我們金融數(shù)學項目的文化活 動的時候的興奮，當我知道波士頓周圍所有最地道正宗的餐館的時候的滿足，以及當我以自己從未想象過的視角去看這個世界， 和自己的 時候的驚奇。During the past 2 years of graduate school and 4 years of un dergraduat

15、ace each other.在過去兩年的研究生院和再之前四年的本科生活中，我很自豪 地看到，我們的學院從管理學院成長為Questrom 商學院，而且我們的學生群體每一年都越來越強大，愈發(fā)有活力。而這樣的進步，如 果沒有這里的每個人努力地去分享，激勵和接納彼此，是不可能發(fā)生的。Let' s now th ink about the future. 20 years from now, what kind of challenges are we going to face, as family members, as bus in ess own ers, as huma n bein

That ' s why we have been so lucky to be part of the Questrom community that cultivated such freedom of an ope n mind.現(xiàn)在我們來思考未來。20年后，作為家庭成員，作為企業(yè)總裁， 作為人類，我們將面臨什么樣的挑戰(zhàn)？沒有人知道。為了應對如此大 的不確定性，我們需要儲備多樣化的技能和知識，而更重要的是，要 有一顆開放和包容的思想去學習。這就是為什么我們非常幸運地成為 Questrom 群體的一部分，因為它培養(yǎng)了開放思想的自由。So, congratulations,class
