A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

On behalf of Eastern Michigan University, I welcome you here today. This is one of the signature moments in your life. I remember that instance when I walked in cap and gown to receive my first degree. It was a thrill for me. It also was a thrill for my parents – they did not have the chance to earn college degrees. I was a first generation college student, as many of you are. Others who will receive their degrees today share a strong family legacy and join generations of EMU graduates – grandparents, fathers and mothers, and brothers and sisters. Whatever life path has brought you here, it is an exciting moment as you walk across the stage, take your diploma and launch your future. Let me tell you a little secret: Each commencement is also a profound and important moment for a president and our faculty and staff. We know how hard you have worked, and we are overjoyed to watch the culmination of your effort. We look forward to all you will do with your education! The value of a college degree is more important than ever before. Your EMU diploma is not only a meaningful credential, but it is the foundation on which you will build a fulfilling career and offer many contributions to your community and state. So to all the graduates, families and friends who join us here today: take pause to celebrate this important milestone. Stroll the campus as you remember all the generations of EMU graduates who have made significant contributions to our state and our world. You have earned your place among the University’s proud alumni family, more than 160,000 strong. And I know your future accomplishments will continue to shine a bright light on your alma mater. Congratulations!

Susan Martin, Ph.D. President Eastern Michigan University

ACADEMIC PROCESSION AND SYMBOLS The academic procession preceding the commencement ceremony is the direct descendant of ecclesiastical processions, which included a stately and orderly movement of celebrants to the place of sacred ceremony. As the church was for centuries the main force behind intellectual enrichment, the religious overtones of the academic procession are not surprising.

8

The procession begins with the University mace, a symbol of authority of the President and the Board of Regents (see description and photo). The mace represents the golden flame of learning and is carried by the grand marshal, who is chosen on the basis of service to the University. Distinguished faculty lead their colleagues. The charter represents the original academic design of the University. The keys represent permission to enter and employ the University’s resources for the advancement of knowledge. The colors symbolize a heraldic representation of the University. The chief academic officer carries the book representing knowledge, the source of wisdom. The medallion, worn by the president, represents the distinguished office of the University’s leader. All undergraduates wear gowns of the same color. The colors of the hoods signify the different graduate degrees. The custom of wearing gowns, or robes, stems from the time when all students of higher learning were members of the clergy and wore garments that the church considered appropriate. The

M I C H I G A N

wearing of caps dates from early Roman history. The mortar board may be a combination of tight-fitting caps worn indoors by the scholars in the Middle Ages and the soft biretta worn outdoors. The tuft of the early cap has been replaced by a tassel. The green and white tassel worn by the graduates represents the colors of Eastern Michigan University. Gold tassels are worn by those graduating with honors. Graduates who have served our country with honorable military service wear red, white and blue honor cords. Meaning of hood colors of academic dress: For all academic purposes, including trimmings of doctors’ gowns, edging of hoods, and tassels and caps, the colors associated with the five colleges at Eastern Michigan University are as follows: Arts and Sciences..............White Business............................Drab Education .........................Light Blue Health and Human Services............................. Citron Technology........................Bright Gold Faculty may be wearing the colors of their own institutions, typically associated with different programs as follows: Agriculture .......................Maize Dentistry...........................Lilac Economics ........................Copper Engineering......................Orange Fine Arts, including Architecture ...................Brown Forestry ............................Russet Journalism .......................Crimson

THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER

OUR PLEDGE

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

Eastern, sacred Alma Mater to your name we shall be true, Ever marching on to victory, we’ll stand by to see you through. Softly floating on the breeze, verdant green with white of snow This our banner we will carry in our hearts where’er we go.

The University Mace Historically, the mace was a battle club used by men on horseback to injure footmen. With the passage of time, however, it became a symbol of learning and power. Constructed of sterling silver, gold plated brass and paduak, a wood resembling mahogany, the mace carries the symbols of each area of the University: the arts and sciences, business, education, health and human services, and technology. The University mace was designed and constructed by Mark Hall, who earned his bachelor’s degree in art from Eastern Michigan University and completed requirements for his master’s degree in fine arts at the Cranbrook Art Academy.

Photographers: Photos should be taken before or after the ceremony. Please remain seated during the distribution of diplomas. Photographers will not be allowed in front of or near the stage. However, a professional photographer will take color photos of all graduates as they receive their diplomas on stage. There is no obligation to buy enlargements, although this opportunity will be available when graduates receive their proofs, typically via email shortly after the ceremony.

ABOUT EMU HISTORY Established by the State of Michigan in 1849, Eastern Michigan University opened its doors as the Michigan State Normal School in 1853, focused on preparing students for the teaching professions.
