Hilary Clinton spoke in front of a sold out crowd at UConn Wednesday. FOX CT's Jeevan Vittal has more.
STORRS Hillary Rodham Clinton delivered a targeted message to millennials at a speech Wednesday night at the University of Connecticut: participate.
"The great question for your generation and for those of us in positions of influence or leadership [is]: do we want to continue to be a country where everyone has an equal shot to participate and to live up to their full potential?'' Clinton asked. "Or are we ready to break faith with all that has gone on before and accept leaving a growing number of our fellow citizens marooned, sitting on the sidelines?"
Left unsaid was whether Clinton, a Democrat who is considering a run for president, will remain on the sidelines herself in 2016.
But her remarks to about 2,300 people at the Jorgensen Center for the Performing Arts had the familiar ring of a campaign stump speech.
Clinton hit many of the notes her college campus audience would expect. She congratulated the UConn men's and women's basketball teams on their duel NCAA championships, dutifully naming the stars on each team.
She gave a shout-out to Yale law school classmate, U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal in the front row, adding slyly, "I'm hoping he doesn't tell anybody what we did in law school."
But the bulk of Clinton's 30-minute speech was a pep talk to college students. "This is an open-minded, tolerant generation,'' she said, "and one of the examples of that is the speed with which support for [gay rights] have advanced in recent years. In large measure that's because of millennials.
"So when I look at this audience and look out more broadly at students and young people across our country, I am hopeful,'' she said. "And we desperately need your energy and your talents. We need in others words your participation."
Clinton is much in demand on the lecture circuit, and is making a lucrative living addressing big crowds across the nation since leaving her post as U.S. secretary of state last year.

Hillary Clinton Urges UConn Crowd: Get Involved, Take A Stand
STORRS, Conn. Hillary Clinton said Wednesday she believes the outcome of the standoff in Ukraine will be a bad one for Russia.
Speaking at a University of Connecticut issues forum, the former first lady, U.S. senator and secretary of state said she believes the sanctions against the Russian government must be "tightened and widened" to prevent the crisis from escalating.
"I think Russia will pay a big price for this," Clinton said. "But that is an endpoint that we've got to get to as peacefully as possible without seeing the total disintegration of Ukraine as a country with territorial integrity and opportunity to have the relationship it wants with the West."
Clinton, who is considering a run for president in 2016, said she believes Russian President Vladimir Putin would like to see a return of a Russian era that no longer exists and said the U.S. and Europe need to be "very clear, strong and to some extent patient" to make that outcome unaffordable to him.
"I think the outcome for him and Russia will not be good, which is deeply unfortunate," she said. "Russia should be a much more dynamic and much more successful country and could be if Putin weren't trying to turn the clock back to the Soviet Union days."
Clinton spoke for more than an hour to a group of about 2,300 students, faculty and staff. The talk was not open to the general public.
She used her prepared remarks to praise young people's activism and community service, and called on UConn students be part of what she called the "participation generation."
She was then asked questions submitted in advance and spoke on issues ranging from congressional gridlock to immigration reform.
She urged the students not to vote for any leader who does not believe in compromise. But she did not say whether she would be a candidate for president.
Clinton also had little to say about her political future earlier in the day at a women's leadership conference in Boston. But she offered a strong message to a largely female audience estimated at 3,500.
