			==Valedictorian Speech==

			At Gradball 2T5, Tudor gave a speech in full Canadian tuxedo. Unfortunately, the Bnad was too loud for anyone to hear what he said, so his Valedictorian speech is listed in its entirety below.

			"Greetings programs! No doubt many of you may be wondering how much sleep I’ve lost over writing this speech. I can assure you that I’ve only lost less than one night’s worth of sleep writing this speech as I started writing it at 5 am this morning. Thank you, capstone.

			Before I start, I’d like to congratulate everyone on their new iron rings. You may not know it, but planning that day was a logistical nightmare. However, seeing how much everyone enjoyed themselves last Saturday very much made it all worth it.

			The superheterodyne receiver (shortened to superhet) is a receiver that uses frequency mixing to convert a received signal to a fixed intermediate frequency that can be more conveniently processed than the original carrier frequency. As you may have guessed, I have been working on a superheterodyne receiver over the last year as part of my capstone, however, I feel that it is also a good example of the past four plus years we’ve endured together.

			The first stage of a superhet is the antenna. The antenna is responsible for taking unbounded signals and bounding them, allowing you to process them. The antenna is university recruitment. Many of us had no clue what we were doing in grade 12 when applying to university. There were so many options and choices. So many Universities you could apply to. So many different programs at each University you could apply for. So many people were trying to give us opinions on where we should go and what we should do with our lives. Regardless of all that, we all somehow managed to do one thing in common, apply to the University of Toronto Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering.

			The next stage of a superhet is the bandpass filter. The bandpass filter is responsible for filtering the bounded signals from the antenna to the specify band of interest to avoid noise and saturation of components. The bandpass filter is the admissions department. Obviously more students apply to this wonderful faculty each year than can be let in, which is a shame, as many wonderful students can be rejected. However, you weren’t. You earned your right to be here, by pushing yourself past your limits in high school. You stood out amongst all the other candidates and earned your right to a prestigious degree at a prestigious university. Once that offer letter came in, you knew that you couldn’t say no to this wonderful opportunity presented to you, so you accepted, having no idea how the next 4+ years of your life would carry out.

			The next stage of superhet is the Low Noise Amplifier, LNA for short. The LNA is responsible for linearly amplifying all signals that are input into it. The LNA is our education. The late-night study sessions, 3-hour labs that always somehow take longer than that, and the brutal final exams all have a purpose. They’ve made us smarter, wiser, and more capable than ever to tackle the problems of the future. We all had those courses we hated, that made us wonder why we ever decided to pursue this silly little ring, but those courses taught us perseverance. They taught us to find a way through the hard times like only an engineer can. We’ve also had those courses we’ve loved, that solidified to us why we made the right decision to become engineers. I look around me today and I see not just my peers, but the engineers of the future.

			The next stage of the superhet is a two in one. You have the Mixer, which is responsible for multiplying the input signal with an intermediate frequency signal provided by the Local Oscillator, LO for short, that performs a fancy trig identity that I forgot all about after calc 3, however you somehow end up with two offset signals. The intermediate frequency from the LO is what I like to

			call Skule spirit, and the Mixer is all possible ways that you can interact with it. This is the most important section of the superhet and also in my opinion the most important part of our university careers. Whether it comes from the purple of frosh week, the late nights at McCaul of design teams, the countless hours of repetition and practice of all our artistic clubs, or even the intermural teams that bring in bigger crowds than the varsity blues (shoutout Skule B hockey), Skule spirit is what allows us to feel welcome in the community. Knowing one another, having those memories made together, that is what we will look back on when we graduate. We’ll remember all the hours we dedicated to the Skule community during the hardest of times, not because we had to, but because we wanted to. We wanted to leave a lasting mark on the community amongst our closest of friends, and that we most certainly did.

			The last stage of the superhet before being fed into a signal processor is the filter. Typically, this filter is a low pass filter as you want to keep the down converted frequency from the mixer, however, I believe that for us, this would be a high pass filter. This high pass filter is determined by you. You now have all the experience and skills to determine who you are coming out of university. Use this knowledge to set yourself up for success. Stand up for what you think is right, persevere through the hardest of challenges, and prove to everyone that you’re not just a great engineer, but a great person. Someone who can and will, change the world.

			Now that we’ve walked through all the stages of the superhet, it’s time for us to be fed into the signal processor, or in other words the real world. Whether you’re going into the work force and chasing the bag, continuing your education and living off of instant ramen for another few years, or taking a break from it all to actually smell the roses, remember all that you learned during your time here. Don’t forget the friends you’ve made, the problems you’ve solved, and the person you’ve become because of it. It’s your time to prove to the world what you’re made of, be grateful for this opportunity, confident in your skills, and hungry for success. If a global pandemic can’t stop you from obtaining one of the hardest degrees in the world, a bad job market will not prevent you from success.

			Let’s remember to be grateful towards all the people who’ve given us a hand along the way. Reflect on everyone who’s been helpful to your success and remind yourself to thank them when you get the opportunity to. These people have helped shape our lives in so many ways and the least we can do is give them thanks. That being said thank you all for the opportunity to represent you as your Valedictorian. I am eternally grateful to each and every one of you for this opportunity.

			Before I end this speech and allow everyone to hit the dance floor, I seem to be forgetting something important. Can someone remind me what’s happening on Friday, March 28?

			Pit rave suds spiel here

			Now that that’s all out of the way. How about one last:

			WHO ARE WE???"
