A Jim Kim word cloud.

Here’s a word cloud of the four major speeches given by President Jim Kim since his arrival in 2009. Of the 12,131 words he delivered at his Dartmouth introduction, his inauguration, and this year’s commencement and convocation, these were the most often used; size indicates their frequency. (And yes, accumbens is a real word.)
