ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — Former University of Central Florida football stars Shaquill and Shaquem Griffin gave the commencement address for the school’s first virtual graduation ceremony last weekend.
Thousands of students watched online as the twins talked about adversity, self-worth, and opportunity. The Griffins encouraged them all to "find your purpose."
UCF President Dr. Alexander Wright led the commencement ceremony which also featured local politicians and school officials. The school also plans to hold an in-person ceremony as soon as health professionals say it is safe.
