- Rice commencement speaker Salman Khan's address to the graduates focused on contributions of a different kind: He urged the students to do everything they can to "increase the net happiness in the world."
Khan is the founder of the Khan Academy, a free online education platform and not-for-profit organization that has made waves in the field of education. In 2004, Khan's online tutorials for a young cousin gained a wider audience, and five years later he turned his collection of free educational videos into the online Khan Academy. Today, his more than 3,200 online tutorials attract 6 million viewers every month, and Time magazine recently named him one of the world's 100 most influential people.

What an absolutely amazing man! He overwhelms me every time. SO inspiring. Thanks Salman Khan. Thanks Ann Doerr.
Steve job has done a lot for mobile and computers, You Mr Khan have given every human a chance to learn and your help is unmeasurable by any standard of measurement.
Thank you so much
May God bless you.
OMG... That's my teacher!
With all the politicians messing up America's public education, it's so nice to real innovators like Khan actually DOING something to make a positive difference. The future of education is like Khan Academy, and I greatly look forward to the day when all students take advantage of it. Thank you Sal.
This man is so IMPACTING, so INSPIRING, and drastically GAME CHANGING. He deserves a Nobel or something.
Aww man wish he had spoken longer, I wanted to hear a little more from him, nonetheless Mr. Khan, you did well and I've enjoyed watching your Khan Academy videos in the past. Continue to spread positivity in this world and you are truly amazing! Thank you for your support and your commencement speech was incredible! Wish you the best of luck Mr.Khan! :D
Sal, you are a true hero. Not the kind of term we throw around for people who show great courage, but the kind that really means you are changing our world for the better. I cant thank you enough!
Probably the most genuine human to exist on this giant rock we're stuck on. Well done, sir. Your work has been appreciated, and will continue to be. Keep your intuition lucid, my friend.
Just love the way you see life & thanks for mentioning " you need to tell people how much you love them, before its too late" . success is blessing, it should make one more human not what is called 'materialistic'. This world is still beautiful because of great person like you exist!!
Great speech. If Sal keeps going at the rate he is, Khan Academy will go down in history as one of the greatest gifts to mankind.
I'm about to head over to school to graduate from high school in 2 hours. Khan I've always watched your videos and they've helped me greatly, but I think this was the most empowering one yet. I was a bit scared to leave behind high school and head into college and the "real world" and I spent the greater part of today sleeping from pure anxiety. However, after I saw this video I felt confident again. Thank you for empowering me in life, I hope I can do the same for others in the future :]
Just amazing! The dedication and perseverance behind the free global education concept of Sal Khan is absolutely staggering. The focussed message to the 2012 graduating class at Rice is far greater for all thinking people, and even if a few do something, it is great change possibility.
Awesome speech. It is people like him that change the world.
I wish I could like this again.
He so awesome , no one even the politician can give such a powerful speech , he is not just perfect in Teaching he is also has brilliant way of thinking . As far as i know a man like him will see a bad day .
This is so profoundly captivating. This guy has my vote for whatever.
Sal you have made a difference in my life more then you can imagine. Your education videos have done wonders from me and was a main reason that helped my GPA go from 2.8 to 3.7. Thank you!
Cheers
This guy needs a nobel prize.
An Amazing Speech by Salman Khan on Empowerment and Positivity helps students to understand these concepts and give back to the universe and the community!
oh, i'm about to cry. Thank you Sal. Thank you so much!
What an extraordinary man. Thank you good sir, for sharing your exceptional wisdom with our humble generation. God Bless!
Sal is one of my heroes. I just did a "Who is your hero" project on him and presented it to the class. He is just amazing.
one of the best endings to a speech I've ever heard! I love the fact that the Khan Academy is pioneering global free education and his big message is share the love and be happy...
Great speech. You are providing a great service.
Thank you so much, Sir! I cannot express how much I appreciate Sal Khan...When I was in the pit of thinking of myself as stupid and dumb on not being able to solve some homework, Sal's words that no one is stupid but rather our knowledge is incomplete due to gap of more foundational knowledge has spoken to me, and I'll never forget that. Great talks as always and all kudos to Sal!
Salman Khan is amazing.
Brilliant work and wonderful effort you have begun with your life. Let's continue to learn for the rest of our life.
Yeah I am going to need you to re do the speech with a blackboard using different colours for each step of the speech...... You have been a massive life saver, Khan thankyou so much ( from Dunedin )
Watched this while procrastinating from my engineering exam study, have no regret. This man is a god.
You're halfway through to the 20 years,how you holding up?
Khan Academy is changing You. Khan Academy is changing history.
Last paper I wrote in college over a year and a half ago was titled "Khan Academy & the Future of Education." Supporter then, supporter now. Good move on the book Sal. Hope it shakes things up!
Oh God, this is about the most empowering speech I've ever heard. Keep on the good work.
this man is changing the world!! thank you mr. khan
In his head he conceived the idea of educating the world through video tutorials on social media when UA-cam was just launched is in itself a million dollar idea.
Thank you Sal, for sharing your wisdom.
Beautiful speech! I really loved Sal's perception,
watched the whole video and was worth it! Even though Im not getting graduated :)
wisdom, talent, passion, sense of humor...to name a few
Khan, you're just amazin'
One of the few ppl in the world whom i wanna meet before i die ...Sal you are legend...
Salman Khan is from Bangladesh. I'm proud of him as my fellow countryman. If you don't know where Bangladesh is you can Google it. It is not in India, as many people compare Bangladesh to India. In past many of the Bangladeshis have involved in many philanthropic works. Go Sal.
Thank you.
Amazing Video!
My daughter has been wanting to go to Rice since she was 8 years old!!
Wow! Amazing and inspirational lecture Khan. Keep up the GREAT work.
Hope everyone in the world would be like this guy!
you're the best sir..
my inspiration
Great speech. Success never comes easily. There are always ups and downs.
Thanks for doing to me what you described in the video.
Great Job Salman!
That's a great speech from the heart.
oh my god , his second chance strategy hit down my heart. i am very emotional now.
Seriously the most useful speech I have EVER heard and I will make use of it. Wish more people watched this.
Haha "you look like Ray Romano" is the top comment. We humans certainly look at things from all perspectives don't we.
He is amazing. Feeling proud to be a Bangladeshi!
I would love to meet this guy some day. Such a genuine sounding message. I can dig that.
That genie part really got at me....I almost cried.
You're halfway through to the 20 years,how you holding up?
cmon this guy needs a standing ovation...
Amazing man! helped me throughout all my college years, thank you!
What a ugly way to recognise a great man.
@@nashzaman1062 you're right. My comment was 8 years ago and I was immature. This man helped me throughout all my college years and he is amazing.
This guy is amazing. The BEST teacher ever.
You are doing Great Job Sir. Thanks for inspiring me..
Best speech ever, from the best human ever!
Can't wait to show this to my kids. Sal is their hero :)
Salman, you are amazing. Bengalis are proud of you.
so proud of you....as Bangladeshi American....
And he just gave an awesome speech...
well done sal you are doing a great thing and i cant wait to get back to math soon...
no matter how much guts i have the world has showed me that certificates just make the world go round. life has processes. this needs too be followed. with out that there nothing that i can do myself. so i looked around and saw what my problems was. education. now time to get back to the basics with is sadly something that i was not give because of my situation. i am focused. to get what i was not allowed to notice in the foundation was a necessity. so am going to (get some) my foundation!education!
That's one of the most enthralling speeches. So much for the drowsy audience..
Pioneer of modern Education System.
Khan Academy
Thank u sooo mucHH !!
The funny thing is that Sal is better than almost every teacher I ever had in high school. I think the only reason that this form of teaching won't/hasn't (or at least not entirely) replaced conventional teaching is because going to an actual school is a very large social experience for people. As far as education goes Khan Academy is so much better!
Thank you Salman Khan
He didn't state or was talking about any facts by greatest it's obvious he was giving his opinion and all he said was Khan Academy has been a great gift to man kind no shame to that.
we need to preserve khan's dna im telling u!
he is the most important person on this planet.
his voice is magical :)
Phenomenal speech.
Khan my complete faith and gratitude goes to you.
God bless this man.
We should not find Superman in movies..Here is the real superman..The life saviour..
Thank you!
a very good inspiring speech
especially the last part to have a "second" chance
Sal! Some day I want to thank you personally for all you've done for me!
this guy's universe perspective is amazing
LOVE YOU SAL!!!!!
I
I don't know who you were responding to, but why does it matter if he's muslim? All countries should recognize that this man more than anything is human. So many of us tend to see the last name and brand him as a muslim, along with that comes the messed up schema. But this guy is human and everybody needs to appreciate that, the fact that he's human.
Love+ truth + S. Khan = FREEDOM
What an example to follow
This guy is the epitome of magnificence & munificence!!
7:37 3rd row up towards the mid left. She's obviously really enjoying this speech.
Simply Awsome....
I like his lesson: do not do what you think you would regret in the future.
This guy is Amazing.
Amazing speech, I'll try to use the advice. :,)
the sun won't supernova:) the thought experiment and the end was excellent!
