2017 Spring Commencement

UNIVERSITY OF M O N T E VA L L O

SPRING COMMENCEMENT May 6, 7, 2017 2016

A NOTE TO THE PARENTS AND FRIENDS OF THE SPRING CLASS OF 2017 . . .

Commencement ceremonies are milestones in the life of a university and in the lives of its extended family members. While in the narrowest sense each graduate is celebrating the mastery of a defined curriculum of intellectual skills and content, we know that the meaning of this commencement celebration will be much broader and deeper than that.

Lifelong friendships have been made. Priceless memories will be cherished. New opportunities are within grasp, some of which seemed like mere fantasies just a few short years ago. Excitement is in the air!

For those of us who serve as faculty, staff, alumni, trustees, or friends of the University of Montevallo, these commencement ceremonies are a reminder that it is a good thing to include time in our busy schedules to celebrate important achievements and to reflect upon the challenges of tomorrow. Perhaps the greatest gift of a liberal arts education is its power to guide us to wiser decisions during and after those moments of reflection.

On behalf of all of us who comprise the Montevallo “family,” it is my pleasure to welcome you to Alabama’s public liberal arts university.

We proudly present the May graduating Class of 2017.

John W. Stewart III University President

Kirk Saduski, Producer and Executive, Playtone Emmy-nominated documentarian, Kirk Saduski is the head of non-fiction film and television at Playtone, a production company in Santa Monica, California, established by Tom Hanks and producer Gary Goetzman. He also serves as an instructor at UCLA teaching Documentary Film Study.

Saduski found his career combining his two passions: history and film. He earned a bachelor’s degree in history from UCLA and went on to earn a master’s degree in history.

He was co-executive producer on the TV mini-series “The Sixties,” “The Seventies,” “The Eighties” and the upcoming series “The Nineties.” Each series examines the politics, events and history of the decade. His other producing credits include “John Adams,” “David McCullough: Painting with Words,” “Game Change,” “He Has Seen War” and “The Pacific.”

“The Pacific” was partly based on Dr. Eugene B. Sledge’s 1981 memoir, “With the Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa,” which chronicled his combat experiences during World War II. Sledge, a former United States Marine, was a popular biology professor at the University of Montevallo from 1962 until his retirement in 1990. In 2015, UM dedicated the Dr. Eugene B. Sledge Memorial in Harman Hall.

Francis Scott Key Led by Ms. Laura Thomas ’17

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, thro’ 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 thro’ 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?
