Presentation of the Marion Luther Brittain Service Awards

The Marion Luther Brittain Service Award is presented each year to two graduating students (one undergraduate and one graduate) from any academic division of the university who are considered to have performed the most “significant, meritorious, and devoted service to Emory University.” Considered the highest honor presented to a student by Emory University, the Brittain Award recognizes two students whose contributions to Emory are outstanding. The award is made under provisions of a gift by the late M. L. Brittain, former president of the Georgia Institute of Technology and alumnus of Emory.

Service has been the defining characteristic of Sandra Bourdon’s time at Emory. A human health major with a concentration in health innovation, she has made a difference in every part of campus she has touched. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Bourdon recognized that first-year students did not have the same chances to build a community as she did, so she decided to do something about it.

With the support of friends and the Office of Spiritual and Religious Life (OSRL), Bourdon created the Welcoming Interfaith and Spiritual Exploration (WISE) pre-orientation program. In WISE, incoming students explore different belief systems and spiritual pathways before their first semester. Bourdon visited faith and religious centers throughout metro Atlanta, trained other students to be peer mentors, and became the program’s first student coordinator. Since fall 2021, WISE has welcomed fifty first-year students.

Bourdon also created connections for her peers through the Voices of Inner Strength (VOIS) Gospel Choir, where she has served as president and secretary. She helped promote the VOIS Forever fund, which established a $100,000 endowment to secure the choir’s future. Building on her belief in interconnection, Bourdon also served as the founding assistant editor of Canopy Forum, a digital publication on the role of religion in society from Emory’s Center for the Study of Law and Religion.

In addition, Bourdon served as co-coordinator of the Menstrual Product Initiative, a partnership with Emory’s Office of Health Promotion and Center for Women to provide free menstrual products to students in need. As a first-generation college student from Warner Robins, Georgia, she also serves as a mentor to high schoolers through the Emory Pipeline Collaborative.

Beyond campus, Bourdon volunteers with Camp WINGS (When in Need Get Support), a bereavement camp for children who have lost a loved one, run by Heart of Georgia Hospice. In 2021, a Field Scholar Award from the Emory Global Health Institute enabled her

to study water purity in Guatemala and create a plan to distribute water-filtration systems throughout the country. As a result of her boundless compassion, Bourdon’s impact will be felt long after she graduates.

Elsa Mekonnen 22N Graduate Recipient

During her time in the graduate nursing program, Elsa Mekonnen made a significant impact by putting scholarship and service into practice. As a Woodruff Fellow, a member of Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing, and an Emory Healthcare nurse, she’s no stranger to teamwork.

Her peers describe her as a driven, passionate, and kind clinician who centers patient care in everything she does—all while balancing her role as a working mother of two.

In October 2022, Mekonnen organized a Woodruff volunteer day at MedShare in Decatur, a national nonprofit that collects surplus medical supplies from local hospitals and distributes them to hospitals in developing countries and free clinics throughout the greater Atlanta area.

A few weeks later, Mekonnen again gathered the Woodruff cohort to participate in the November 2022 Emory Cares Day, where scholars planned and executed a planting project at Lullwater Preserve, restoring woodland growth and preventing soil erosion. When volunteers arrived, Mekonnen was there to greet them, offer an Emory Cares T-shirt, and walk them into the preserve to join the group.

She served as an acute-care, board-certified, medical-surgical registered nurse at Emory University Hospital for more than seven years before graduating with an MSN. Mekonnen is now a research nurse practitioner in Jeanine Park’s human integrative physiology lab, which is part of Emory University School of Medicine’s nephrology department. She regularly volunteers both locally and abroad, including a recent immersion trip to Cusco, Peru, associated with the Lillian Carter Center for Global Health and Social Responsibility at the Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing.

During her time as a registered nurse, Mekonnen cared for adult patients served by specialties such as general surgery, cardiology, oncology, transplant, and others. She also leveraged her expertise as a super-user for clinical informatics projects and trained nurse clinicians and staff on innovative technology solutions to improve health care delivery.

Looking ahead, Mekonnen plans to continue her involvement with Woodruff Scholars and returned in March 2023 to volunteer with the group at MedShare. The graduate Marion Luther Brittain Award recognizes Mekonnen’s compassionate character, tenacious leadership, academic success, and service to Emory.

Presentation of the Exemplary Teacher of the Year Award

Chosen by the university president from nominations by the deans on behalf of the United Methodist Church Board of Higher Education and Ministry.

Ira K. Schwartz

Associate Professor, Family and Preventive Medicine; Assistant Professor, Pediatrics

Emory University School of Medicine

Assistant Professor, Global Health and Behavioral, Social, and Health Education Sciences

Rollins School of Public Health

Director of Admission and Associate Dean for Medical Education and Student Affairs

Emory University School of Medicine

Emory University Commencement 2023 4

With a teaching career spanning more than thirty years and encompassing public health, global health, and pediatrics, Ira Schwartz has kept students at the center of his multifaceted career at Emory. His office door in the medical school admission office is always open and used by many a student (and faculty member) seeking his guidance, wisdom, and calm counsel. One wall is filled with photos of alumni who have kept in touch long after leaving medical school to pursue their careers.

After training in pediatrics and infectious diseases, Schwartz spent several years at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, where he worked on malaria and other problems in tropical medicine. His years working in Thailand and Kenya were helpful when the burgeoning AIDS epidemic called him to work at Emory, first at the Rollins School of Public Health (RSPH) and then the School of Medicine, where he helped care for children at Grady Memorial Hospital’s Ponce de Leon Clinic. For more than twenty years, he directed the Southeast AIDS Training and Education Center, a federally funded professional education program in six southeastern states.

His long-running course, Public Health Implications of HIV/AIDS, garnered Schwartz the RSPH Professor of the Year honors twice. He helped organize and taught the Patient-Doctor Course and a case-based learning course in the medical school for more than two decades. Based on his teaching prowess and ability to relate to and support medical students, he was appointed assistant (now associate) dean of medical education and student affairs in 1999.

During curriculum reform in the medical school in 2007, Schwartz was put in charge of the Medical Society system, organizing and leading the faculty advisors’ group. He received the Evangeline T. Papageorge Distinguished Teaching Award in 2013, the most prestigious award given to medical faculty, with students saying, “Dr. Schwartz has been critical in our evolution throughout medical school and will undoubtedly continue to be a role model for all of us not only in our medical careers but for our lives in general.”

Presentation of the Thomas Jefferson Award

Awarded each year to a faculty member or administrative officer for significant service to the university through personal activities, influence, and leadership.

Swimming and Diving Head Coach

Only the most steadfast statistician can track the records set since Jon Howell’s arrival in 1998 as coach of the Emory men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams. Such runaway success fosters community pride and attracts high-achieving students to this now-legendary program.

Howell has guided the Eagles to fifteen National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) National Championships since 2005, including wins for both the men and women in 2017. From his first year at Emory, Howell set a tone for accomplishment, and each year his teams have won conference titles, now totaling forty-eight. He has overseen fifty-eight individual and fifty-one relay national champions, nurtured fifty-one NCAA postgraduate scholarship winners, and coached former Emory swimmer Andrew Wilson 17C to the pinnacle of becoming the first Division III swimmer to join a USA Olympic Team in 2021.

Committed to supporting students “beyond the water,” Howell has fostered excellence on every level, creatively used resources, and encouraged athletes to “bring their whole selves” to the community he has inclusively created. For the current squad and engaged alumni, Howell is one of the most significant teachers they have ever had, fostering their development and well-being in myriad ways.

Awards have flowed to him: eight times he has received National Coach of the Year honors, including at the 2017 National Championships, where he won for both the men’s and women’s teams. In 2015, he was awarded the National Collegiate and Scholastic Swimming Trophy, the highest award of its kind in the US. The Collegiate Swimming Coaches of America, in 2021, named him as one of the 100 Greatest Coaches of the Past 100 Years. For him, the highest reward is “watching who these men and women become.”

Howell applies a scientist’s rigor, pulling in experts on sports psychology, wellness and nutrition, and even sleep neurobiology. His record might encourage the beguiling idea that success begets success. The truth is that Howell begins anew each season, constantly fine-tuning to stay ahead in this “game of inches” where his expertise, and his care for Emory’s athletes, have meant so much.

As his many admirers agree, Howell has made good on his desire to “achieve something uniquely Emory,” motivating his athletes to be not just fierce competitors but thoughtful, compassionate leaders and scholars who support their communities.

The Emory Williams Awards for Distinguished Teaching

The university’s oldest awards for teaching were established in 1972 by alumnus Emory Williams 32C. Awards in the arts and sciences are determined by a committee of Emory College faculty. Emory College gives three of these awards each year, while other schools of the university give one award.

Authorization to Confer Degrees

The conferring of degrees is authorized in formal session by the Board of Trustees of Emory University on the recommendation of the president and the faculties. At today’s ceremony, Chair Robert C. Goddard III 23HA symbolically will authorize President Fenves to confer degrees upon the graduates, including the recipients of honorary degrees.

Honorary Degrees

For decades, native Atlantan Sarah Kennedy has been one of her community’s most active, compassionate, and effective civic leaders. She has a long history of advocating for education, the arts, mental health, families affected by Alzheimer’s, the environment, children and adults living with disabilities, and more.

At Emory, Kennedy has been instrumental in A Family Affair, the signature event benefiting the Goizueta Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center. The annual event has raised more than $9.5 million since 2009.

Through the Spray Foundation and SKK Foundation, she supports groundbreaking Alzheimer’s research and clinical trials at Emory, as well as Emory’s research and clinical care for alcoholand opiate-affected children. She serves on the Executive Advisory Council of the Emory Brain Health Center—a body whose members contribute to the center’s mission through philanthropy, networking, and advocacy.

Kennedy raised awareness of the needs of patients diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment and their caregivers, and she helped design the facility for the Charlie and Harriet Shaffer Cognitive Empowerment Program, funded by the James M. Cox Foundation.

Beyond Emory, she has been involved with, and supportive of, the Alzheimer’s Association Georgia Chapter and Respite Care Atlanta, which provides a stimulating, meaningful day program for adults with cognitive challenges plus information and community support for caregivers.

Committed to helping people with disabilities achieve independence, she serves on the advisory board of the Bobby Dodd Institute. In 2018, the organization bestowed the Circle of Excellence Award on Kennedy, which “honors organizations and individuals who have made significant contributions to the lives of people with disabilities.”

She supports Skyland Trail, a nonprofit mental health treatment organization in Atlanta that helps people with mental illness thrive through a holistic program of evidence-based psychiatric treatment, integrated medical care, research, and education. Kennedy has contributed to its financial aid program, in her words, to “allow families to focus on togetherness, positive energy, and healing. Financial aid plays a critical role in assuring that those in need can fully participate in a program that offers recovery and leads to lives filled with purpose.”

Kennedy also serves on the boards and executive committees of the High Museum of Art and the PATH Foundation, and she is a former member of the Board of Trustees of the Atlanta Speech School and the Woodruff Arts Center. The Kennedys were previously recognized as Philanthropists of the Year by the Greater Atlanta Chapter of the Association for Fundraising Professionals.

As the foregoing attests, Kennedy wholeheartedly embraces Emory’s mission to apply knowledge in the service of humanity.

Emory University Commencement 2023 6

Through generously offering her time, resources, and expertise, she has improved patient outcomes and enriched the lives of many Atlantans.

Mrs. Kennedy will be presented by Carlos del Rio 86MR 88FM, interim dean of the School of Medicine.

Beginning as a production assistant with the AtlAntA Journal-Constitution in 1972, Kennedy rose to become chairman and CEO of his family’s company in 1988 and now serves as chairman emeritus. During his tenure, annual revenues increased from $1.88 billion to $20 billion.

Today, as chairman of the James M. Cox Foundation, Kennedy brings an unwavering commitment to improving the world around him. Named for Kennedy’s grandfather, the foundation supports conservation and the environment, early childhood education, health, and empowering families and individuals for success.

A former competitive cyclist, Kennedy is a past Masters National, Pan American, and World Champion in the three thousand–meter pursuit. He understands what it takes to conquer a tough hill, such as the one facing scientists seeking a cure for cancer. Kennedy and his wife, Sarah, have made important investments in the Winship Cancer Institute to support faculty researchers. They also help cancer patients through funding Winship’s patient-assistance program.

Kennedy was diagnosed and treated for prostate cancer at Emory in 2014 and became a vocal supporter of men’s health awareness. He was treated for cancer at Emory again in 2022.

The foundation made a transformational grant to Emory to improve patient experiences and outcomes in 2015. The James C. Kennedy Initiative for Transforming Care brought the lean operating model from manufacturing to Emory Healthcare.

In 2018, the foundation established the Charlie and Harriet Shaffer Cognitive Empowerment Program at the Goizueta Institute @Emory Brain Health. Inspired by a friend’s experience and hearing stories from caregivers, the Kennedys wanted to leverage an area of Emory’s strength to develop more effective, evidence-based therapies for mild cognitive impairment.

Kennedy has a long history of supporting Atlanta institutions, including serving on the Atlanta Committee for Progress and being a leading force behind Atlanta’s successful bid to host the 1996 Olympic Games.

He serves on the board of the PATH Foundation, which has created a network of greenway trails throughout metro Atlanta. Driven by a love of the outdoors and its positive effects on health and well-being, Kennedy is one of the largest private donors supporting the Atlanta BeltLine. A former president of Wetlands America Trust, he previously served on the board of Ducks Unlimited.

Translating best practices from his personal life to Cox’s business operations, Kennedy launched Cox Conserves, a sustainability program with goals to send zero waste to landfill by 2024 and become carbon- and water-neutral by 2034.

In evaluating his philanthropic investments, Kennedy always begins by asking, “What difference did it make?” Through game-changing initiatives across a range of causes and organizations, he has offered hope and healing, positively impacting countless individuals and their communities.

Mr. Kennedy will be presented by Carlos del Rio 86MR 88FM, interim dean of the School of Medicine.

On December 17, 1986, Anthony Ray Hinton entered death row in Alabama for crimes he did not commit. He would spend the next thirty years there until the Equal Justice Initiative (EJI) secured his freedom.

A native of Birmingham, Hinton was twenty-nine when a series of crimes in area restaurants led to the murder of two managers and the wounding of another. The surviving manager identified him from a photo lineup, despite the fact that he was working in a locked warehouse fifteen miles away.

Following his arrest, Hinton repeatedly stressed his innocence to the detective, who responded: “I don’t care whether you did or didn’t do it. But I’m going to make sure you are found guilty of it.”

He recited the five things that would convict Hinton: “Number one, you’re Black. Number two, a White man is going to say you shot him. Number three, you are going to have a White prosecutor. Number four, you are going to have a White judge. And number five, you are going to have an all-White jury.” A polygraph test exonerated Hinton, though the judge refused to admit the test at trial.

Hinton was confined to a five-by-seven-foot cell. In the first three years, Hinton was “so angry with God” that he did not speak to anyone. However, hearing another inmate crying over the death of his mother propelled Hinton from his silence as he realized: “My mother was still alive, and I was still alive. I had given the state of Alabama my joy.”

Ultimately, EJI attorneys showed that the crime bullets could not be matched to a gun owned by Hinton’s mother. At 9:30 a.m. on April 3, 2015, Hinton left the Jefferson County Jail a free man, the 152nd person exonerated from death row since 1983.

Hinton now serves as an EJI community educator. He is a tireless and powerful advocate for the abolition of the death penalty, having watched fifty-four men he had known be executed and an additional twenty-two take their own lives. He also works with LifeLines, which supports prisoners on death row through letter writing. In 2018, Hinton wrote the memoir The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row.

His personal indulgences are few—and of heartbreaking simplicity. As he describes it, “Every night, I go outside and look up at the stars and moon, because for years I could not see either. I walk in the rain, because I didn’t feel rain for years.”

Mr. Hinton will be presented by Carla Freeman, interim dean of Emory College of Arts and Sciences.

A Commentary on Commencement

Emory College of Arts and Sciences originated from a concern for higher education in a Christian setting on the part of the Georgia Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Chartered in 1836 in Oxford, Georgia, the college was named after John Emory (1789–1835), bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church. In 1964 the college at Oxford was named Oxford College of Emory University.

Emory College became Emory University by virtue of a charter granted by the Superior Court of DeKalb County on January 25, 1915. Although classes on the Atlanta campus were begun in the schools of law and theology as early as 1916, the college did not move to Atlanta until 1919. The university now includes nine schools, most tracing their origins to years before the chartering of the university itself. These schools are Emory College and Oxford College (1836), the School of Medicine (1854), Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing (1905), Candler School of Theology (1914), the School of Law (1916), Roberto C. Goizueta Business School (1919), the James T. Laney School of Graduate Studies (1919), and Rollins School of Public Health (1990).

The intent of the founders is perpetuated by the university’s vision statement: A destination university internationally recognized as an inquiry-driven, ethically engaged, and diverse community, whose members work collaboratively for positive transformation in the world through courageous leadership in teaching, research, scholarship, health care, and social action.

Emory University Land Acknowledgment

Emory University acknowledges the Muscogee (Creek) people who lived, worked, produced knowledge on, and nurtured the land where Emory’s Oxford and Atlanta campuses are now located. In 1821, fifteen years before Emory’s founding, the Muscogee were forced to relinquish this land. We recognize the sustained oppression, land dispossession, and involuntary removals of the Muscogee and Cherokee peoples from Georgia and the Southeast. Emory seeks to honor the Muscogee Nation and other Indigenous caretakers of this land by humbly seeking knowledge of their histories and committing to respectful stewardship of the land.

A Short History of Commencement at Emory

This is Emory’s 178th commencement. The exercises witnessed today represent an imposition of medieval academic tradition on an institution that had its roots in the nineteenth-century frontier. The first Emory commencement was held in 1840, four years after Emory College had been chartered and two years after the college’s first classes. That first ceremony, however, was without graduating students, as there were no graduates until the following year. Then, as now, sermons and addresses had a central focus in the exercises, though rarely have these addresses been so crucial as in 1849, when all fifteen members of the graduating class were assigned speaking places and spoke for as long as half an hour each. Early commencement audiences sat for up to four hours in the midsummer heat to listen to the numerous student and faculty orations on such topics as “Our Government Unfavorable to High Attainment in Literature,” “Social Equality,” and “Modern Refinements.” These addresses in the early days were in English, contrary to the practice at many other institutions. As President A. B. Longstreet argued in 1842, speeches in Latin and Greek were “worthy of the name pedantry, and nothing more.” In spite of this advice, several later generations of students instructed their audiences in the ancient tongues.

Academic Dress and Customs

Academic dress goes back to the founding of European universities, which were the products of the intellectual revival of the twelfth century. All medieval students were clerks and consequently wore the dress of clergy. This is the academic costume we wear today, with certain changes introduced in the sixteenth century by Protestant reformers. The oldest articles of academic wear were the robe, over which was worn the habit, usually a kind of tunic with short, wide sleeves. The medieval hood was lined with fur or inexpensive skins and could be gathered around the neck or pulled up on the head as a turban. It is uncertain when different colors became associated with different degrees.

There were four kinds of caps: the round cap, reserved for doctoral dignity; the tena, a round cap with strings tied under the chin, worn by jurists; the square cap; and the Tudor bonnet. At Oxford University in 1565 the square cap became the norm, but the faculties that had become laicized adopted the Tudor bonnet that is still worn by doctoral candidates today. The basic design of all academic costume in the United States was first established in 1895 and was first used at Emory by the Class of 1902. The bachelor’s gown features an embroidered Emory University seal in gold thread and has long, pointed, open sleeves. The master’s gown has longer sleeves, which are closed at the bottom with openings about midway for the hands. Beginning in 2014, the bachelor’s and master’s gowns are made of fabric spun from molten plastic pellets from recycled water bottles. An average of twenty-three postconsumer plastic bottles are used to create each gown, furthering Emory’s commitment to sustainability initiatives. The doctor’s gown has fulllength lapels of velvet and bell-shaped sleeves with three horizontal velvet bars. Tassels for bachelor’s and master’s caps are black; tassels of gold thread may be worn by doctors. Gowns and caps are usually black, although Emory and some other schools have specified that their doctors may wear gowns of distinctive colors. Yale’s deep blue doctoral gown, Harvard’s crimson, Columbia’s dark blue, and Emory’s blue and gold are a few that may be seen in the procession.

The hood varies for the respective degrees, the doctor’s hood being longer and fuller than the master’s. The field of study can be determined from the velvet facing on the hood according to the following color scheme: white, the arts; gold-yellow, science; purple, law; apricot, nursing; green, medicine; teal, physical therapy; scarlet, theology; salmon, public health; drab, business; and dark blue, doctors of philosophy. The hood is lined with silk in the colors of the degree-granting institution. For Emory graduates the lining is blue with a chevron of gold.

The president of Emory University wears a badge of office given to the university in 1965 by the Emory chapter, Gamma of Georgia, of Phi Beta Kappa. Designed by Eric Clements of Birmingham, England, and executed by the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths in London, the solid gold badge is an open teardrop enclosing the raised seal of the university and is suspended on a gold chain.

The chief marshal and deputy marshals lead the academic procession. The faculty marshals and the secretary of the university jointly manage the forming of the procession, the seating of commencement participants, and the planning of other aspects of commencement exercises. Marshals are identified by their unique blue tunics, which are sleeveless and lined with gold.

The Quadrangle stage with blue canopy was named the University Marshals’ Stage in honor of the dedication and service provided by Emory’s chief marshals throughout history.

The university mace is carried in the procession by the immediate past president of the Student Government Association. Academically the mace is the symbol of a university as a corporate

Emory University Commencement 2023 56

A Commentary on Commencement

body of scholars possessing its own jurisdiction and its own legally constituted authority. Traditionally the mace is borne in procession immediately before the chief officer of a university and is placed before them during formal academic ceremonies.

The mace of Emory University, a gift from D.V.S., an Emory College senior honor society, was designed by Eric Clements and executed in silver and gold by the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths. In the teardrop at the apex of the mace, against a background of oxidized silver, is a freestanding representation in gold of a human skeleton. This is Dooley, the “spirit” of Emory, who traditionally “rises” once each spring and for a week rules campus. Immediately below the skeleton, in an open teardrop, is a gold sphere divided (by stippling) into eight segments. Topping the sphere is a simple cross, symbolizing the relationship of Emory University to the Methodist church. The seal of the university is sculptured in gold within the circular base.

Before each school in the procession, the school’s student marshal carries its gonfalon, a banner in the color associated with the respective school’s degree: medicine, green; public health, salmon; nursing, apricot; theology, scarlet; law, purple; and business, drab. The gonfalon of the graduate school is gold representing Emory’s gold, and the gonfalons of Emory College and Oxford College represent Emory’s blue.

Emory Alumni Legacy Medallion

Graduating students who have a parent, grandparent, and/or sibling who is also an Emory graduate are wearing specially commissioned medallions hanging from blue and gold ribbons. The medallions are expressions of the university’s gratitude to those families who have chosen to continue the Emory education tradition throughout the generations.

Spectators on the Quadrangle are seated facing the former Pitts Theology Library, one of the two oldest buildings on the Atlanta campus. Designed by the distinguished Pittsburgh architect Henry Hornbostel (1867–1961), Convocation Hall—as it is now known— was the original theology building in 1916. It was renovated in 1975 by architect Paul Rudolph to house the expanded library collection of Candler School of Theology. Renovated again, the building reopened in 2019 as a community gathering space and to welcome visitors and members of the campus community alike as they meet with the university’s president and other leaders.

Directly behind the spectators are Carlos Hall, the other original campus building, and the expanded Michael C. Carlos Museum. Formerly home to the School of Law, Carlos Hall was renovated in 1986 according to a design by Michael Graves to house the museum and the Department of Art History. The museum is named for the philanthropist who donated most of the cost of the facility. It was designed to maintain the classic symmetry and proportion of the surrounding buildings, which are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Bowden Hall, east of the museum, was constructed in 1951 in the same style as the original campus buildings. Originally the History Building, it was renamed in 1991 in honor of the late Henry L. Bowden, former chair of the Board of Trustees of Emory University. To the southeast of Bowden Hall is the Center for Library and Information Resources. The center joins the tall, red-tile-crowned Robert W. Woodruff Library and is linked to the Asa Griggs Candler Memorial Library at the east end of the Quadrangle. Candler Library was dedicated in 1926 in honor of the man who donated the land for the campus and who provided the university with strong leadership in its early years.

Next to Convocation Hall is the Loula Walker and Ely Reeves Callaway Sr. Memorial Center. Thanks to a generous gift from alumnus Ely R. Callaway Jr. in honor of his parents, this center joins the former Humanities Building with the original Physics Building, which was constructed in 1919.

At the west end of the Quadrangle is the Administration Building (1955), a gift of Charles Howard Candler. Like his father, Asa, Charles chaired the Board of Trustees for many years. Between the Administration Building and the former Pitts Library sits the more modern White Hall, the main classroom building of Emory College. Above the trees on the north side of the Quadrangle are the curved red roof of the William R. Cannon Chapel—designed by Paul Rudolph and dedicated in 1981—and the towers of Emory University Hospital to the east.

Since Emory’s founding in 1836, its Commencement traditions have evolved in interesting ways.
