Khan closed his MIT address with this charge to the graduates he called 'the wizards of tomorrow.' Throughout the speech, he had drawn an extended analogy between MIT and Hogwarts, describing the campus as a place where science and research are 'the closest thing to magic in the real world,' where the faculty are 'the leading wizards of our time,' and where young people from every background come suspecting they might finally find a place to spread their wings. He had also told the story of how MIT's decision to launch OpenCourseWare — giving away knowledge for free rather than profiting from it — directly inspired Khan Academy's mission. MIT 'actually put principle over profit,' he said, at a time when everyone else was asking how to monetize education. His closing message was that this generation of MIT graduates, armed with that same spirit of principled innovation, would lead the transformations that really matter — not through political power but through creative problem-solving.
