December 18, 2021 Dear Graduate: One of the greatest honors for the University of Colorado Board of Regents, the institution’s governing board, is to be part of this commencement ceremony. Your success is a success for us all. Your degree is a measure not only of an accomplishment of dedication and talent, but also notice to the world that you have the skill and discipline to contribute greatly to any endeavor you pursue. This commencement ceremony, like every University of Colorado graduation since 1935, will close with the reading of the Norlin Charge. As originally expressed by former CU President George Norlin in 1935, graduation “marks your initiation in the fullest sense of the fellowship of the University, as bearers of her torch, as centers of her influence, and as promoters of her spirit.” Welcome to the ranks of CU’s alumni family, which is over 475,000 strong. Congratulations on achieving this milestone. Well done and well earned! Sincerely, The Regents of the University of Colorado

December 18, 2021 Dear Graduates, Congratulations and welcome to the University of Colorado alumni family! Reaching this moment in your educational journey required hard work, perseverance and commitment. You should feel great pride in earning your CU degree and for taking this critical step to position yourself for success. As a fellow CU alum, I’ve experienced the university’s transformative effects firsthand. My CU degree has helped unlock countless benefits for me over the years, and I know your degree will serve you well regardless of your path in life. You’re now part of a distinguished network of CU alumni who are contributing to their communities, the state of Colorado, the nation and the world. Among the many things you’ve learned during your time at CU is that life is uncertain. That you persisted and earned your degree amid one of the most uncertain periods in recent history is testament to your strength and abilities. Remember this as you make your way in the world. And hold tight to the integrity, collaboration, innovative spirit and critical thinking that framed your CU education. They, too, will serve you well in the years ahead. All of us at CU celebrate your achievement and wish you health, happiness and fulfillment in the future. Again, congratulations. All the best,

Todd Saliman President, University of Colorado

December 18, 2021 Dear Graduates: Congratulations on earning your degree from the University of Colorado Denver. It has been our privilege to be your partner on your educational journey. In the best of times, earning a degree is impressive. But achieving this milestone during a pandemic reveals your exceptional character, grit, and determination. These traits will serve you well wherever your future takes you. As our world continues to recover from COVID-19 and its economic and societal impacts, it will need your talents, insights, skills, compassion, and intellect more than ever. I know you will rise to the challenge because you’re Lynx – you’ve already demonstrated that you’re more than capable of facing hard truths and then doing the hard work of making change. With your graduation, you are joining a community of more than 110,000 CU Denver alumni, many of whom are leaders in the civic, nonprofit and business sectors—in Colorado and across the globe. Our alumni live in over 100 different countries and are shaping the social, economic and political landscape of our world. As you leave today, we hope CU Denver has inspired you to be lifelong learners, innovative problem solvers, and thought leaders in the communities where you choose to live and work. We invite you to stay connected to your alma mater, which promises you a very warm welcome whenever you return. Sincerely,

Michelle Marks, PhD Chancellor

COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER _____________________________ Iman Jodeh Iman Jodeh is the Representative for House District 41 in Aurora, Colorado. As a first generation American, born to Palestinian immigrants and refugees, she has called Colorado, specifically HD41, home her entire life. As the first Muslim and Arab woman elected to the Colorado State Legislature, she is passionate about social justice work and advocates for criminal justice reform, fighting the rising cost of and increasing access to healthcare, increasing access to jobs and education, ensuring equal rights for all, and combating our climate crisis. Iman is the Founder and Executive Director of the locally-based nonprofit Meet the Middle East (MTME), which fosters relationships between the United States and the Middle East through education and immersion travel. As the first female Spokesperson for the Colorado Muslim Society, the largest and oldest mosque in the Rocky Mountain region, Iman also plays a major role in representing the Muslim community on a variety of social justice areas statewide. She is the former Community Advocate and Liaison at the Interfaith Alliance of Colorado where she spent many years on the frontlines during the Colorado legislative session fighting for progressive legislation including, but not limited to, Repeal of the Death Penalty, Equal Pay for Equal Work, Ban the Box, Family Medical Leave Insurance Program, Protect Colorado Residents from Federal Government Overreach, Sunset Continue Civil Rights Division and Commission, Repeal Exception to Constitutional Ban on Slavery, and In-State Tuition for Refugees, Combat Interpreters and Other Foreign Nationals. She is also a proud board member at Ready to Work Aurora, and board member emeritus at the Village Exchange Center and the Women’s Lobby of Colorado. Iman lectured at the University of Denver’s University College Enrichment Program and taught The Israeli Palestinian Conflict: From Ancient History to Today’s Headlines, as well as Life Under Occupation: A Palestinian Perspective, and Islam 101. In 2006, she received her master’s in Public Policy from the University of Colorado at Denver. Subsequently, she worked for the Abraham Path Initiative where she assisted with fundraising, women’s engagement, policy, and economic development inthe Middle East. She also worked at the University of Denver’s Center for Community Engagement and Service Learning where she had the opportunity to acquire in-depth knowledge on structuring and implementing service-learning projects.

DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AWARD _________________________________ Barbara Weiske The University of Colorado Denver, Auraria Campus, and the broader community have greatly benefited from the leadership, commitment, and vision of two-time alumna Barbara Weiske (’84 bachelor’s in sociology, ’92 Master of Public Administration). Throughout her forty-year career, and as CEO of the Auraria Higher Education Center from 2009 until her retirement in 2019, Barbara demonstrated an ability to operate in one of the most complex organizational structures of higher education. She consistently navigated the conflicts and needs of each institution in an equitable manner to help build a sustainable academic environment in service of our student populations. Barbara was also tenacious in moving local, state, and federal bureaucracies to respond positively to crucial campus issues such as public safety, traffic and pedestrian conflicts, and numerous others. Under her leadership, the square footage of the Auraria Campus increased 40% to benefit more than 41,000 students. Her vision for an integrated higher education landscape with a singular feel took shape in projects such as the Campus Neighborhoods. This project transferred significant authority and responsibilities regarding campus design, construction, and management from the Auraria Board of Directors to the three campus institutions—leveraging the distinct assets in education and infrastructure that each institution brings to the shared campus. It enabled the CU Denver university neighborhood to be designated as the prime campus location facing Speer Boulevard. Barbara’s sense of humility, cooperation, and enthusiasm enabled her to strengthen CU Denver specifically without sacrificing the immense collective value of the Auraria Campus. She was instrumental in advocating for the construction of the Lola and Rob Salazar Student Health & Wellness Center, as well as the North Classroom Building and the Student Commons Building. But it was not just the physical growth of the campus that makes Barbara’s work so extraordinary. Her commitment to bolstering the connections among the three institutions and enhancing their shared educational mission illustrates Barbara’s unwavering dedication to the public good. She understood how important it was for each institution to carve out its own identity without losing sight of the common purpose the Auraria Campus serves. Barbara also used her expertise to advance our city and state. She served as a member of the Downtown Denver Partnership, as well as on the Partnership’s Economic Development Council. She was a member of the international Urban Land Institute and its University Development and Innovation Council; the Denver Lower Downtown District Board of Directors; the Downtown Denver Neighborhood Leaders; the Auraria Foundation Board of Directors; and countless other visionary and planning task forces and steering committees. Her many commendations include the Community College of Denver’s inaugural Service Award, the University of Colorado Denver Mack Easton Distinguished Alumni Award, and the Downtown Denver Impact Award for her contribution in building an economically powerful center city and her role in executing the vision of the downtown area plan. For her achievements and decades of service to the University of Colorado Denver, the Auraria Campus, and our state and national communities, it is with sincere gratitude that the Regents of the University of Colorado award Barbara Weiske the Distinguished Service Award. 15

The Norlin Charge to Graduates

___________________________________________________________________ From the baccalaureate address by President George Norlin of the University of Colorado, June 1935. ___________________________________________________________________ “You are now certified to the world at large as alumni of the university. She is your kindly mother and you her cherished sons and daughters. This exercise denotes not your severance from her, but your union with her. Commencement does not mean, as many wrongly think, the breaking of ties and the beginning of life apart. Rather it marks your initiation in the fullest sense into the fellowship of the university, as bearers of her torch, as centers of her influence, as promoters of her spirit. The university is not the campus, not the buildings on the campus, not the faculties, not the students of any one time—not one of these or all of them. The university consists of all who come into and go forth from her halls, who are touched by her influence and who carry on her spirit. Wherever you go, the university goes with you. Wherever you are at work, there is the university at work. What the university purposes to be, what it must always strive to be, is represented on its seal, which is stamped on your diplomas—a lamp in the hands of youth. If its light shines not in you and from you, how great is its darkness! But if it shines in you today, and in the thousands before you, who can measure its power? with hope and faith, I welcome you into the fellowship. I bid you farewell only in the sense that I pray you may fare well. You go forth, but not from us. We remain, but not severed from you. God go with you and be with you and us.”

THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO

THE HISTORY _______________________________________________________________________ The University of Colorado Denver is the leading public university in Denver. CU Denver offers 42 undergraduate degrees and 59 master’s degrees. Doctoral programs are offered in Public Affairs, Health and Behavioral Science, Leadership for Educational Equity, Education and Human Development, Design and Planning, Bioengineering, Civil Engineering, Engineering and Applied Sciences, Applied Mathematics, Clinical Health Psychology, Health Economics, Geography, Planning, and Design, School Psychology, Integrative and Systems Biology and a joint degree in Computer Science and Information Systems. Programs are tailored to meet the needs of a diverse student population, with special emphasis on assuring professional opportunities after graduation. Classes, serving nearly 15,000

students, are offered during weekdays, evening hours and on weekends. The University of Colorado’s Department of Correspondence and Extension was established in Denver in 1912 to meet the needs of a growing population. As course offerings expanded, so did the demand for degree-granting status. The Denver Extension Center was renamed the University of Colorado-Denver Center in 1965, and by 1969, 23 fields of undergraduate study and 11 of graduate study were offered. In 1972, the Colorado General Assembly appropriated funds to build the Auraria Campus, CU Denver’s current site, and renamed the “Center” CU Denver. Two years later, the University of Colorado reorganized into four campuses – Denver, Colorado Springs, Health Sciences Center

(Denver) and Boulder. On June 30, 2004, the University of Colorado Board of Regents gave final approval to the consolidation of the University of Colorado at Denver with the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center. At CU Denver, faculty members bring their work experiences to the classroom; they are aware of the challenges and advances of the urban environment and are responsive to the needs of students and the community. This combination of talented faculty and a highly motivated student body creates a vital and exciting educational environment. The goal is to offer its students the unique educational opportunity to combine real-world experience with academic excellence.

THE MACE _______________________________________________________________________ For centuries, in academic and ecclesiastical processionals, a mace has been carried by the marshal to symbolize the official opening and closing of a formal event. The design of the mace encompasses all aspects of education. A globe representing the worldly scope

of education is the base of the staff. The middle of the design, which is the shaft, represents the profile of the Denver skyline and the Auraria campus. At the top of the mace, flames spiral upward representing the colleges and schools, sending her graduates as bearers of the torch into the community and world.

The mace was designed and created by Michael Brohman, instructor in the College of Arts and Media visual arts department, with special emphasis in sculpture and a CU Denver graduate with a Master’s in Architecture and Planning ’95.

THE ACADEMIC REGALIA _______________________________________________________________________ The pageantry and dress of the academic procession have been inherited from the medieval universities of the eleventh and twelfth centuries where academic life began, first in the church, then in the guilds. The teaching guild was the guild of the Master of Arts. The Bachelor was the apprentice of the Master, and the dress was the outward sign of privilege and responsibility. Principal features of academic dress are the gown, the cap and the hood. Early in its evolution, it became necessary for universities to set rules to preserve the dignity and meaning of the academic dress. Two English universities, Oxford and Cambridge, are particularly noted for the development of the authentic academic costume, which through the centuries has changed only slightly. Formal academic attire for American campuses was established in 1895 with the adoption of the Intercollegiate Code, which prescribed the patterns, colors and materials for each part of the regalia for the bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral levels. The American Council of Education presented a revised code, which generally governs the style of academic dress today. The Gown The flowing gown comes from the twelfth century. While it originally may have been worn as protection against the chill of unheated buildings, today it has become symbolic of the democracy of scholarship,

for it covers any dress of rank or social standing underneath. Gowns vary in their trimming and the sleeve design. The doctoral gown has velvet facings down the front and three velvet chevrons on the bell-shaped sleeves. These velvet trimmings may be black or the prescribed color of the academic area. The master’s gown has oblong sleeves, open at the wrist, while the bachelor’s gown has long pointed sleeves; neither has trimming. The bachelor’s gown is always worn closed; master’s and doctoral gowns may be worn open or closed. The Cap When Roman law freed the slaves, they won the privilege of wearing a cap. The academic cap is a sign of freedom of scholarship as well as responsibility and dignity. Old poetry records the cap of scholarship as square to symbolize the book. The color of the tassel denotes the discipline. The square black mortarboard is the recommended cap, though some schools have adopted other styles. Doctors may wear a velvet cap with a gold tassel. The Hood The hood identifies the level of the degree, the school that granted it and the academic area. The silk lining of the hood is the color or colors of the school. The color of the facing denotes the discipline represented by the degree. Some of the colors you may see represented today are: Architecture – Blue Violet Arts – White Business – Sapphire Blue Dentistry – Lilac

Education – White Education Specialists – Blue Engineering – Orange Environmental Design – Brown Fine Arts – Brown Journalism – Crimson Law – Purple Medicine – Green Music – Pink Nursing – Apricot Pharmacy – Olive Public Affairs – Peacock Blue Science – Gold The Honor Cords Silver and gold honors cords are worn by graduates who are awarded the following honors by their school or college: Summa cum laude (with highest honors) Magna cum laude (with high honors) Cum laude (with honors) Special honors Honors Distinction The gold and royal blue honors cords designate members of the Golden Key National Honor Society. The red and white cords recognize those students who have served through their participation in Student Government. Red, white and blue cords are worn by millitary veterans.

THE UNIVERSITY SEAL _______________________________________________________________________ In its history, the University of Colorado has used three different seals. The current seal, adopted in 1908, depicts a male Greek classical figure sitting in front of a pillar and holding a scroll. Next to the figure, laurel branches frame a burning torch. The inscription in Greek reads “Let Your Light Shine.” The seal’s designer, Henry Read of Denver, chose the classical motif because Greek civilization “stands as the criterion of culture.”

The laurel symbolizes honor or success, the youth suggests the “morning of life” and the scroll represents written language. From 1893 to 1908, the University seal was a copy of Wyon’s medallion, “Science Trims the Lamp of Life.” In this version, a Greek woman knelt before a lamp, and stalks of mariposa lilies decorated the border. Before 1893, an adaptation of the Colorado

43

State Seal was used, but it was never adopted by the Board of Regents. The seal is used primarily on official documents, such as diplomas and transcripts that have been issued on behalf of the University. The Board of Regents uses the seal on its official documents and publications. The seal also appears on the President’s Chain of Office, the University Mace, Regent regalia and various formal publications.
