High profile alumnus, Jim Messina praises the University of Montana, tells graduates to get out of Missoula

Leave your village, try your hardest at everything, be ready for whatever comes next and always remember to enjoy your work.

Jim Messina referenced a famous quote by Norman Maclean, "The world is full of bastards, the number increasing rapidly the further one gets from Missoula, Montana."

Messina pointed out that Maclean could not have known this without ever leaving his village.

Messina took a similar rout to Maclean by moving from Montana to Chicago Illinois.

His reason? The President of the United States asked him to.
