Wesley Chan, co-founder of Wong Fu Productions and a member of UCSD's first Sixth College graduating class, delivered a relatable and humorous address to his alma mater in 2012. He spoke as a peer rather than a distant authority, having graduated just six years earlier from the same campus. Chan's central message was that adaptability matters as much as planning. He illustrated this with his own story: when he and his friends started making videos in 2004, YouTube didn't even exist. They uploaded to a personal website that people had to download videos from. Their media classes taught them more about 'how a camera made us feel' than how to use one. But their resourcefulness — making a little look like a lot — became the advantage that set them apart. None of their success, from meeting the President to building a million-subscriber YouTube channel, was planned.
