Barack Obama actually said...

"It's a good reminder that we need to do everything we can to preserve this place we call home."

"America's Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) are living monuments to the cause that has driven each generation of our citizens in the task of perfecting our Union."

"The recent advent of smallsats, spacecraft that weigh anywhere from an ounce to as much as a few hundred pounds, has upended that status quo."

"Today, more Americans are earning a degree in post-secondary education than ever before, and HBCUs are playing an important role."
