Hillary Clinton
The former first lady and current secretary of state grew up in Chicago, but at Wellesley College she fed her dreams and ambitions, she said.
Clinton said she helped abolish some old-fashioned rules at Wellesley, like how boys were only allowed to visit dorm rooms on Sunday afternoons and couples had to keep at least two of their four feet on the floor at all times.
In her 1969 graduation commencement speech, Clinton said politics was about "making what appears impossible, possible."
