RECESSIONAL
Nevada Fight Song “Hail to Our Sturdy Men”
Arr. A.G. “Mack” McGranahan “Hornpipe” from Water Music by George Frideric Handel. Arr. Brian Campbell
• Sierra Brass Quintet
Where the Truckee’s snowfed waters, Drop from mountain’s crest, And the meadows meet the sagebrush, By the sun caressed. Cradled by the silver mountains, ‘Neath the western blue, Stands our noble Alma Mater, Our Nevada U.
As the miner on the desert, Prospects ev’ry place, So Nevada seeks the future With an upturned face. Ev’rywhere she gathers knowledge, All that’s good and true, Gives she to her sons and daughters, Of Nevada U.
We will ever live to serve her, Live to give our best, Live to make our Alma Mater Pride of all the West. Let her praises wake the echoes, While we pledge anew, Hearts and minds and hands and voices To Nevada U.
Several songs have served as the Nevada alma mater over the years, including “Beside the Waters of the Truckee,” “U of N So Gay” and “Nevada, My Nevada.” The current alma mater, “Mackay Song,” with words by Jack H. Morse, came into use circa 1955, although its official adoption date is unknown. The earliest version of “Mackay Song” in print was included in the 1924 University Songbook.
Academic costumes date to the 11th and 12th centuries with the first organized institutions of learning in Europe. In 1895, the academic institutions in the United States adopted a code of academic dress that gave this country a beautiful and impressive method of signifying scholastic honors. With the exception of revisions in 1932 and 1959, the code has been virtually unchanged since its inception.
MACE. Once a terrible instrument of medieval close combat, the mace has evolved into an ornamental, ceremonial staff borne at the head of processions marking the beginning of a convocation or commencement.
The black mortarboard is most commonly used in the United States. The tassel, normally worn in the left front quadrant of the cap, is black, although it may be of the color appropriate to the subject of the degree. The tassel on the doctor’s cap is usually made of gold thread.
GOWNS. The bachelor’s gown has a long, pointed sleeve. The master’s gown has an oblong sleeve open at the wrist (or some older gowns may be open near the upper part of the arm). The doctor’s gown is fuller than the others with velvet panels full length on the front and three velvet crossbars on each sleeve in black or in a color distinctive of the subject pertaining to the individual’s degree. The gowns are black except for the doctor’s,
which may be a color representing the institution that awarded the degree. A number of colorful cords and sashes recognizing student achievement and activities are worn by many of the graduates.
HOODS. Academic hoods signify the wearer has received a master’s, doctoral or other advanced degree. The hood, draped over the shoulders and down the back, indicates both the institution granting the degree and the academic area of specialization. The silk lining of the hood represents the color or colors of the institution from which the degree was received. The higher the degree, the more the lining is revealed.
The level of the degree is designated by the length of the hood and the width of the velvet edging. The master’s hood is three-and-one-half feet long, and the doctor’s is four feet long. (The shorter bachelor’s hood is not given at Nevada.)
The velvet edging is three and five inches in width for the master’s and doctor’s degrees, respectively. The color of the velvet signifies the field of learning, such as orange for engineering, green for medicine and gold for science. For Ph.D. or Doctor of Philosophy degrees, the dark blue color represents mastery of the discipline of learning and scholarship in any field, and is not intended to necessarily represent the field of philosophy.
The University is home to one of the top study abroad organizations in the nation – the University Studies Abroad Consortium (USAC) – and has set the strategic goal of having 15% of all undergraduate students study abroad. Graduates wear a flag sash that indicates the country in which they studied.

Motto: Omnia Pro Patria (“All for Our Country”)
Students: 20,945 (in fall 2022)
Colleges and schools: College of Agriculture, Biotechnology and Natural Resources; College of Business; College of Education & Human Development; College of Engineering; Graduate School; Donald W. Reynolds School of Journalism; College of Liberal Arts; University of Nevada, Reno School of Medicine; Orvis School of Nursing; School of Public Health; College of Science; School of Social Work.
– founded in 1874 as Nevada’s first institution of higher education – was established as Nevada’s land-grant institution under the Morrill Act of 1862, which was signed into law by President Abraham Lincoln. The act provided access and opportunity for working people who were previously excluded from higher education and helped bring the benefits of emerging research and knowledge to the entire Silver State. The University is notable for its enrollment growth (more than 20,945 students in fall 2022), its investment of more than $850 million in advanced labs, residence halls and facilities since 2009, and its status as a leading research institution, with research and development expenditures of more than $180 million in 2022. The University has a statewide economic impact of more than $1.34 billion annually. Widely known for its programs in earthquake science and engineering, the humanities, neuroscience, environmental science, bioscience, biotechnology and advanced autonomous systems, the University enjoys a Carnegie Classification ™ of R1 as a comprehensive, doctoral university with very high research activity. The University has also been awarded the “Carnegie Engaged” classification in honor of its impactful engagement and collaboration to improve the quality of lives of Nevadans throughout the region and the state. The campus has a traditional yet modern feel, from 148-year-old buildings on the National Register of Historic Places surrounding a Jeffersonian Quad to some of the most technologically advanced libraries, facilities and labs in the U.S. The University is home to the University of Nevada, Reno School of Medicine; the University of Nevada, Reno Extension; and NCAA Division I Wolf Pack Athletics. Today, the University delivers on its land-grant mission of access to education and knowledge by investing in the academics, facilities, support, engagement and vibrant campus life that promote our diverse students’ cognitive growth and academic achievement – all while remaining one of the best values in American higher education.
Sierra Nevada College opened its doors in the fall of 1969 with 23 students. Among the goals of the founders was incorporation of the unique environmental qualities and characteristics of the Lake Tahoe region into the academic programs at SNC.
Sierra Nevada College changed with the times and became Sierra Nevada University (SNU) in 2019, a name to reflect the four-year college degrees and graduate programs.
Like many private colleges and universities, SNU had traditionally relied on tuition to support most of its operations. Because maintaining the necessary enrollment levels is a vulnerable longterm business model, the SNU Board of Trustees determined that SNU’s financial future was no longer sustainable based on this model. The board needed to make major strategic changes, both to serve the needs of current and future students and to preserve the Incline Village campus for higher education.
The SNU Board of Trustees approached the University in June 2021 regarding the
transfer of academic assets and operations to the University, and the University began operations at the University of Nevada, Reno at Lake Tahoe Wayne L. Prim Campus on July 1, 2022. The key priority in the initial years after the acquisition is to ensure that former SNU students have the opportunity to complete their degrees under a teach-out agreement approved by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities.
The University is in the beginning stages of a three- to five-year plan for the new location that will ensure the orderly transition of operations, a clear path to degree completion for former SNU students, and fleshing out long-term academic plans, namely to include growth in research and creative activities.
As Nevada’s original land-grant institu tion, it is the University’s mission to share the wonders of this incredible place with the communities it serves, bringing worldclass speakers, arts and programming to Lake Tahoe. This gift of higher education is one that will be treasured now and by generations to come.
