Kathy Hochul has a message for Sean Duffy

12. Hochul is such a good governor.

She has a really interesting background, too. Her parents were very community service-oriented and instilled those values in their children, and she's been an activist ever since.

Hochul recounts pickets, protest and pizza in SU commencement speech
Governor was class of 1980, and said she spent more time marching than in the classroom

Gov. Kathy Hochul returned to her alma mater Syracuse University Sunday to give the commencement address to the class of 2020. The ceremony had been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Hochul told stories about leading a six-month boycott of the campus bookstore and calling out order numbers at Varsity Pizzeria, a local restaurant where she used to work.

Hochul graduated from the institution in 1980 with a bachelor’s degree in political science, before attending Catholic University in Washington D.C., where she received a law degree.

Hochul admitted she didn’t spend a lot of time in class because she was either picketing or protesting something on campus.

At her 10 year reunion, Chancellor Melvin A. Eggers told her, “We couldn’t wait for you to graduate,” Hochul said, explaining that she’s still unsure about whether the comment was a joke.

I'm proud to have worked on her campaigns for both Lieutenant Governor and Governor of NY.
