Adversity brings with it disappointment, anxiety, and loss. But it also brings opportunity, to learn, to grow, to find one's own inner strength. We don't get to choose these defining moments. They choose us." Hamilton's nearly 500 graduates now join an alumni body of more than 23,600, many of whom have made important contributions to business, the professions, government and the arts.
