CONGRATULATIONS
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US AT SAMFORD UNIVERSITY to celebrate the accomplishments of the Class of 2025. The commencement ceremony is the pinnacle of the academic year. All our work and effort at Samford leads to this moment. We rejoice in the fulfillment of our institutional mission and honor the beginning of a new era in the life of each graduate.
This ceremony continues our tradition that stretches to Samford’s founding in 1841 as Howard College in Marion, Alabama. Over the past 184 years, Samford has granted thousands of degrees. Today, these graduates join the nearly 58,000 living alumni serving around the world. We take pride in their hours of study and preparation required to earn their academic degrees. We recognize the enormous sacrifice of the students and their families, the excellent work of faculty and staff, and the dedication of so many who provide the financial support necessary to build and sustain a great Christ-centered university.
All of us at Samford are especially grateful to those who have loved and supported these graduates. We welcome each of you into the fellowship of our extended Samford University family as we celebrate this very special day. Congratulations to the Class of 2025. We have given you our best, and we will hold you in our hearts until we meet again.
Sincerely,
Beck A. Taylor, PhD President
University Mace
There are two maces used at commencement. The oldest mace is from the 1970s, made from wood, and represents the founding of Samford University. It contains a medallion used in past university presidents’ inauguration ceremonies.
The new mace—constructed of silver and ebony—comprises eight elements that symbolize Samford’s history and tradition as a Christian university. A simple cross resides at the top of the instrument. Beneath the cross, silver bands embrace a Lucite sphere embedding a computer chip containing the entire Bible, linking the high-tech world with the timeless biblical Word. A likeness of columns, reflective of Samford’s Georgian Colonial architecture, bears the university motto, "For God. For learning. Forever." A decahedron follows bearing the university seal, logo and historical scenes. A globe symbolizes Samford’s international mission as an educational institution devoted to world awareness and ministry. Below the globe, a cylinder encases actual soil from Samford’s four campuses (two in Marion, Alabama, and two in Birmingham). The cylinder bears the Shema (“Hear O Israel, the Lord is our God, the Lord is One”). Extending to the bottom of the mace is an ebony wood shaft inlaid with silver plates bearing the names of Samford presidents. The mace rests on an acorn base, reflective of Sherman Oak, symbol of the East Lake campus, and of the fact that sturdy, strong lives spring from humble beginnings.
The mace is borne by a faculty representative at the head of all university academic processions as an ensign of authority. To be the mace bearer is an honor extended to faculty who have won teaching awards or who have been recommended for this honor by the dean of their college.
Commencement Honors
Honors at Samford University are awarded on the basis of all academic work taken at Samford University. Students who earn at least 70 credits at Samford and a grade point average (calculated on all work done at Samford University) of 3.500 through 3.749 are graduated cum laude; of 3.750 through 3.899 are graduated magna cum laude; and 3.900 through 4.000 are graduated summa cum laude. Latin honors announced at commencement are not official; they are subject to change once grading is completed.
Upon recommendation of the faculty, a candidate for a JD may be awarded the degree cum laude if the student’s grade point average at the law school ranks the student in the top 15% of the graduating class. A candidate whose grade point average at the law school ranks the student in the top 5% of the graduating class may be awarded a JD magna cum laude. A candidate whose grade point average at the law school ranks the student in the top 1% of the graduating class, but no less than two students, may be awarded a JD summa cum laude.
Undergraduates receiving a degree designated “University Fellows” have completed the rigorous university honors program, which requires a two-year interdisciplinary core curriculum, and provides opportunities for international study and academic enrichment. As a result, this degree
recognizes exemplary academic achievement. These students may also qualify for summa cum laude, magna cum laude and cum laude designations.
Academic Dress
The formal academic dress worn today originated in the Middle Ages and is modeled after the gowns used at Cambridge University and Oxford University in England. Until the Civil War, American university students usually wore their gowns to class each day. Now, gowns are typically worn only at commencement.
In general, the gown indicates the level of the highest degree held: for bachelor’s degrees, the navy gown with flowing, pointed sleeves; for master’s degrees, the black gown with sleeves slit midway for the arms and the sleeve bottom closed flat with a semicircle cut in the side; for doctoral degrees, the flowing robe with sleeves closed at the wrist, decorated with chevrons of velvet, most often black on black, but occasionally with chevrons of another color indicating the general field of study. Occasionally, the entire robe is of another, universityspecific color.
Gonfalons
In May 2016, Samford University introduced new gonfalons, the ceremonial flags that serve as a symbol of each college and school that compose Samford University. The gonfalons, hand-stitched by the New England Flag and Banner Company, are displayed only at university commencement.
The history of gonfalons goes back to the time of ancient Rome. Roman armies used them to identify military units and were symbols of pride. In medieval Europe, gonfalons served important purposes in commerce. Most people could not read, so gonfalons served to advertise businesses. Different colors and symbols on the flags denoted what each business had to offer. In Renaissance Italy, gonfalons were used in religious processions and were often adorned with pictures of the life of Christ or of the saints. Trade guilds and city-states used them much as we use national flags today.
Today, colleges and universities mark occasions of special significance with gonfalons. They are a reminder of both the solemnness and the celebratory nature of commencement.

THEOLOGIANS
JOEL D. LAWRENCE serves as president of the Center for Pastor Theologians.

SPEAKER for December 13 Ceremony
TONY HALE is a 1992 graduate of Samford University, where he majored in journalism and participated in a student theater group known as the Word Players. This immersion into theater—something Tony recalls as “a lifeline”—also sparked his successful and wide-ranging entertainment career.
Tony is a three-time Emmy awardwinning actor known for work on the ensemble comedy classics Veep and Arrested Development. His contributions to family-friendly projects include Clifford the Big Red Dog and Archibald’s Next Big Thing. In Toy Story 4, he brought vibrance to a piece of plastic cutlery by voicing Forky, and he played key roles in other Disney/ Pixar favorites such as Inside Out 2 and The Mysterious Benedict Society.
Tony’s film projects include Being the Ricardos, Woman of the Hour, Nine Days and Hocus Pocus 2. He recently starred in and produced the critically acclaimed film Sketch—which culminated an eight-year labor of love to elevate a touching story about children navigating grief. He will next be seen in the films Office Romance and The Wrong Girls, plus a reprisal of Forky in Toy Story 5. But his proudest accomplishment is his daughter, Loy, and his marriage to his wife, Martel.

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried. He descended into hell; the third day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God, the Father Almighty.
From thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

Joy to the earth! The Savior reigns; Let all their songs employ; While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
