The fact is, you do have a voice,

其实你的声音的确有人听到
your OpEd may or may not get accepted for publication but it might;

你的特写报道可能不会发表
and if it does,

但如果发表了
I'll see the exemplary ones anyway and scan most of them myself,

我还是会找几篇范文自己复印下来
but the teaching fellows will do the grading.

我的助教们则负责给你们打分
If you do get it accepted for publication somewhere,

如果你的文章在哪儿发表了
even if it's down the road sometime,

哪怕有时候是街边小报
please send it to me because I keep a library of these.

记得寄我一份我要收藏的
The last time I did this,

有一回
I put together a booklet of the ones that had been submitted

我还把这些发表的文章做成小册子
and sent it over to President Levin and Dean Salovey to show them

寄给莱文校长和沙利文院长
how the Yale students are out there making a difference in the world.

让他们看看耶鲁的学生如何改变着世界
