Chancellor’s Message Graduates and Guests, On behalf of the Board of Trustees, the University of Arkansas System, the Board of Visitors, and our faculty, administration, and staff, I extend our sincerest congratulations to our graduates and their families and friends on this day of celebration. Earning a degree not only puts our graduates in the minority of Arkansas residents, research shows that obtaining a college degree increases lifetime earnings potential, ensures a better quality of life, and provides social mobility for the graduates and their families for generations to come. Although graduates may have completed important milestones in their lives, their educational journeys are far from over. Whether it’s learning a new skill to transition to a different job, learning from mentors and role models in life, or pursuing advanced degrees, our graduates will continue to gain knowledge throughout life that will benefit them as individuals and will create stronger communities. Days like today are joyful reminders of why we come to work each and every day: to educate students who create better lives through college educations. We thank you for giving the University of Arkansas - Fort Smith the privilege of being your university of choice for formal education and look forward to seeing today’s graduates added to a long list of Lion success stories.

Academic Regalia Academic ceremonies, with their gowns, mortarboards, tassels, hoods, and maces are colorful traditions handed down from European universities of the Middle Ages. The traditional attire worn at commencement is evidence of academic achievement. Its use, which originated at English and European universities during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, came to the United States in 1754 with the founding of King's College (now Columbia University). In 1895 the Intercollegiate Commission, comprising a group of leading American educators, met at Columbia to draft a code which would regulate the design of gowns and hoods for various degrees, as well as to fix the colors that indicate the various faculties. This code has been adopted by most of the colleges and universities in the United States, with revisions in 1932 and again in 1959.

Gowns Although most doctoral gowns are black, some are the color of the university conferring the degree. The doctoral gown is trimmed in velvet, with three two-inch bars on the sleeves and a five-inch border extending from the back of the neck down the two sides in front. Although usually black, the velvet may be a color that indicates the nature of the degree. Gowns worn by master's, bachelor's, and associate degree earners have no such facing. The level of the degree held is indicated by the gown’s cut. Doctoral gowns have full sleeves which are round and open. Baccalaureate gowns have long, pointed sleeves, and master's gowns have long, closed, fuller sleeves which reach nearly to the wearer’s knees. The arm goes through a slit giving the appearance of short sleeves. Hoods The hood seems to have had a more practical origin. During the Middle Ages, monks wore hoods to protect their tonsured heads in the winter and as a container in which to collect alms. It is the most significant part of academic dress. Its shape and size indicate the degree of the wearer. The color of the hood’s velvet edge denotes the nature of the degree, and the color of the silk lining denotes the institution which granted the degree. The length of the hood indicates the level of the degree, with the doctoral hood being the longest. Traditional Colors Accounting, Business.............. Drab Arts, Letters, Humanities.......

Health.............................. Sage Green Journalism............................Crimson Library Science.......................Lemon Music........................................... Pink Nursing.................................. Apricot Oratory (Speech)............Silver Gray

Mortarboards The mortarboard cap has been conventionalized from the skull cap which was worn by monks of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. It is usually black. Tassels are worn over the left front quarter by degree holders; candidates wear the tassel over the right front quarter until the degree is conferred. The Chancellor’s Medallion As a symbol of office, the Chancellor’s Medallion is worn at ceremonial observances as part of the chancellor’s regalia. It has as its central element the University of Arkansas - Fort Smith seal. Each small banner link on the chain of the medallion represents a college within the University.

The Mace The mace is a gift from the first graduating class of engineers of the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville/ University of Arkansas - Fort Smith. The University of Arkansas - Fort Smith seal adorns the top of the mace. The four sides of the base include the names of this institution from its creation to the present: 1928-1964 Fort Smith Junior College, 1965-1971 Westark Junior College, 1972-1998 Westark Community College, and 19982001 Westark College. The institution became the University of Arkansas - Fort Smith in 2002. The academic mace represents the dignity of the University. At universities throughout the world, the mace symbolizes internally the authority of the chancellor on behalf of the university and the immunity of the university to undue external interference.
