Participation in commencement ceremonies, including the listing of candidates in this program, must be requested in advance of the conclusion of our academic terms. Undergraduate and graduate degrees are awarded once all graduation requirements are met. The Office of the Registrar maintains the official record of Chaminade degrees and honors conferred.

SPRING 2021 COMMENCEMENT

MESSAGE from the PRESIDENT Congratulations, graduates!

After spending so much time apart, your Silversword community is elated to be gathering safely today for this special occasion—an opportunity to celebrate all you have accomplished, to recognize all the obstacles you have overcome and to look ahead to the many achievements that lie before you.

The last year has taught us so much about adversity and community. About perseverance and resilience.

Earning your degree is hard enough without a pandemic, but the COVID crisis threw out no shortage of obstacles. Despite the disruptions and difficulties, you powered through—turning challenges into new opportunities and staying the course toward achieving your academic goals.

All the long nights of studying, juggling obligations at school and home, the sacrifices you had to make— you climbed a mountain to complete the requirements for your degree, building your foundation of knowledge and honing your talents so you can ultimately use them to serve others.

After a year like we have had, a year like no other, it is also important to recognize just how vital supporters are in helping us to achieve our goals. Sometimes they serve as cheerleaders, sometimes as sympathetic ears. They buoy us, challenge us and remind us of the power of positive influence.

At Chaminade, you have a support network for life. You are a part of a strong and tight-knit ‘ohana—a family of proud Silverswords. As you accept your degree, I encourage you to think of all those who offered you the support and guidance you needed to get to where you are right now, at this moment— loved ones and friends, mentors and professors, advisors and counselors.

And one day, you will have a chance to pay their aloha forward.

That day may come sooner that you think. You are entering the next chapter in your life at a time of incredible change for the nation and world. The pandemic not only upended our lives, but also brought a new and much-needed spotlight to social inequities, injustices and critical areas of need.

As I reflect on all you have achieved, I cannot help but recall the words of our university’s namesake. In his “Letters,” written in 1833, Father Chaminade took pains to remind us that life’s biggest accomplishments never come easy.

He writes: “We must not become discouraged if we encounter some obstacle in the way of the necessary change. Never has change been done, and never will it be done, without difficulty.” Put another way, the change we are working toward will come. With hard work and heart, we can make a difference.

As you set out on your next journey, know that I and the entire Chaminade ‘ohana are proud of your accomplishments and truly cannot wait to see you become the changemaker our community needs.With your leadership, drive and energy, there is no limit to the positive impact you will make.

Sincerely,

Lynn M. Babington, PhD President, Chaminade University of Honolulu

HISTORY of CHAMINADE In 1955, the Marianists founded Saint Louis Junior College. Two years later, the college became a fouryear coeducational institution and got a new name. Its fitting namesake: Father William Chaminade (1761–1850), the founder of the Society of Mary and a social reformer who saw education as a way of transforming society for the better. In 1977, Chaminade added its first graduate programs—and received a final name change to reflect the expansion: Chaminade University of Honolulu.

Since its founding, Chaminade has undergone significant growth. The only Catholic university in the islands, Chaminade boasts world-class academic programs, a faculty of widely recognized scholars and a student body of innovators—tomorrow’s ethical leaders in a diversity of fields. We prepare students for success with 27 undergraduate and seven graduate degree programs, mentorship, career development opportunities and a network of academic advising and other supports.

While we’ve grown as an institution, adding state-of-the-art facilities and incorporating modern educational practices along the way, we remain driven by our founding values: to educate the whole student—mind and spirit—and help them seek out ways to make positive change in the world.

MISSION Chaminade, guided by its Catholic, Marianist and liberal arts traditions, prides itself on its robust academic offerings, thriving campus community and rich development opportunities for students. But what makes Chaminade unique is its service-oriented mission: a commitment to create an environment that drives students, faculty members, administrators and staff to build a more just, peaceful society.

Through hands-on learning and service projects, we prepare our students for success in careers.

CHARACTERISTICS of a MARIANIST EDUCATION A Marianist education considers the whole student, valuing critical academic inquiry, personal growth and service to others. Educational practice in the Marianist tradition has five distinctive characteristics: • We educate for formation in faith, helping students with the search for meaning in their lives.

• We provide an integral quality education, feeding educational passions and creating lifelong learners.

• We educate in family spirit, forming a warm, welcoming ‘ohana on campus that supports all students.

• We educate for service, justice and peace, committing ourselves every day to the common good.

• We educate for adaptation and change, recognizing that “new times call for new methods.”

PRESIDENTIAL INSIGNIA The insignia of the Office of the President at Chaminade University honors Chaminade’s past while valuing its present and looking forward to the future. The insignia depicts a special medallion, worn by the president on occasions of note, that’s suspended on four woven strands of Ni‘ihau shells.

The medallion comprises six polished kukui nut shells, each with a symbolic relief: water, to represent the original home of the Marianist community in Honolulu; the rare lokelani rose, to honor Mary, mother of Jesus; the crest of the Society of Mary impressed on three crescents, which is the symbol for Bordeaux where the Society of Mary was founded; cherubs on mountains, representing the university’s home; a dove to symbolize the Holy Spirit; and the flaming sword or silversword.

CHAMINADE UNIVERSITY MACE The tradition of the academic mace, or ceremonial staff, dates back to medieval Europe. Today, ceremonial maces are carried at the head of processions, including at the U.S. House of Representatives and U.K. Parliament. In Chaminade’s academic tradition, the mace-bearer is the Faculty Senate president.

Chaminade’s mace includes a depiction of shooting flames, symbolic of a flaming sword. Engraved into ‘ōhi‘a lehua wood medallions on each side of the mace is the university’s motto: Vita in Verbo (Life in the Word). Both the head and handle of the mace are made of curly koa, a rare native wood.

The mace was designed by Robb Young ’75 as a gift to Chaminade from Mary Civille.

ACADEMIC REGALIA Why do graduates, professors and administrators wear gowns, hoods and caps at commencement? The origins of formal academic garb date back to the 12th and 13th centuries, when the ordinary dress of the scholar was similar to that of the cleric or the priest. While modern professors and students no longer wear gowns to class, the tradition of academic regalia continues at special ceremonies.

Gowns: At Chaminade’s commencement, gowns are all black. Gowns for those being conferred bachelor’s degrees have pointed sleeves and a fairly elaborate yoke. The gowns for those receiving master’s degrees have oblong sleeves, open at the wrists. The gown for the doctoral degree can be distinguished by velvet panels on the front and three bars on the bell-shaped sleeves.

Caps: There are several theories on the origin of how the mortarboard became a part of the academic costume. One explanation is that it evolved from the square biretta of Renaissance clergy. Traditionally black, the cap is meant to match the gown. Velvet is reserved for those with doctoral degrees. During commencement, the tassel on the cap is switched from right to left when the degree is awarded.

Hoods: The hoods worn during commencement are packed with meaning. They signify the highest degree a person has attained, a scholar’s field of study and the granting institution. They vary in shape, color and length. The colors found on hoods can be used to quickly identify the wearer’s discipline: White: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

GRADUATES with HONORS Bachelor’s degree candidates who have excelled academically and who have completed at least 60 semester hours with letter grades at Chaminade may be awarded honors at graduation. Chaminade University confers the following honors: cum laude (cumulative grade-point average of 3.51); magna cum laude (3.76); and summa cum laude (3.96). Students who have completed at least 30 but fewer than 60 semester hours at Chaminade with letter grades and who have a cumulative grade-point average of 3.51 or higher may be awarded “with distinction” [honors].

This list contains graduation honors at Chaminade University as of April 7, 2021. Graduate students are not awarded honors.

In the American higher education system, cum laude, magna cum laude, summa cum laude and “with distinction” awards are unique to undergraduate education.

CHAMINADE, A L M A M AT E R , H A I L !

Light of truth by tropic sea, Guide of youth, you keep us free.

Your colors: white as curling foam, Your royal blue—our island home.

Lift our loyal spirits high, With a sword of inspiration Lead to battle with the cry, “Life in the Word”—and victory For love of God and nation.

Lyrics by Bro. Joseph A. Becker, S.M. (1911–2004)

N AT I O N A L A N T H E M O say can you see, by the dawn’s early light.

What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?

Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight, O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?

And the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.

O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

Rendezvous of West and East Home of evening star, a gleam, And morning star, pure silver beam, Hail, splendor, echo of the sun.

Lift our loyal spirits high, With the sword of inspiration Lead to battle with the cry, “Life in the Word”—and victory For love of God and nation Chaminade, Alma Mater, Hail!

Music by John McCreary (1930–2013)
