SOUTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY SYSTEM The Southern Illinois University (SIU) System is comprised of two sister institutions: SIU Edwardsville, with a School of Dental Medicine in Alton and the SIUE East St. Louis Higher Education Campus in East St. Louis, and SIU Carbondale, with a Law School in Carbondale and a School of Medicine in Springfield.

With a budget of over $930 million, the SIU System employs more than 7,000 faculty, staff and administrators who serve more than 24,000 students. A modern and comprehensive post-secondary educational system, the SIU System offers a broad range of academic programs that lead to associate, bachelor’s, master’s, specialist, doctoral and professional practice degrees in a variety of fields, including law, medicine, pharmacy, and dental medicine.

SIU Carbondale was chartered in 1869 as Southern Illinois Normal University, a teachers’ college. In 1947, the name was changed to reflect the institution’s academic expansion. The University also expanded geographically.

Southern Illinois University Board of Trustees J. Phil Gilbert Chair

As early as 1949, courses were being offered in the metropolitan East St. Louis area, which led to the development of SIUE, now the largest campus in the SIU System.

The instructional, scholarship and service missions of the two constituent institutions reflect the needs of the geographic areas in which they are located. The SIU System is also committed to serving statewide, national and international needs. This commitment is reflected in educational activities and outreach in communities throughout the state, as well as through research and training exchanges and worldwide student exchange programs.

The SIU Board of Trustees governs the SIU System and sets policy that enables both universities to carry out their established missions and goals. The president of the System is its CEO and reports to the board of trustees.

The University chancellors report directly to the president and are responsible for the internal operations of SIUE and SIUC, respectively.

SOUTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY EDWARDSVILLE Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE) traces its origin to a recommendation made in 1956 by the Southwest Illinois Council for Higher Education. The council was convinced that higher education facilities were needed in the Metro East. They hired consultants whose reports documented that need, and they appealed to Southern Illinois University (SIU), 100 miles south, to establish satellite campuses.

In 1957, SIU opened two “residence centers” in Alton and East St. Louis. The University expected to enroll 800 students, but actual enrollment reached 1,776. By 1959, the number of students had more than doubled to 3,800, greatly exceeding the capabilities of the physical facilities.

This burgeoning population demanded services faster than the University could develop and supply them.

A planning team investigated sites in the Metro East counties and selected one just south of Edwardsville.

In 1960, the Illinois legislature authorized a bond issue for construction of a new state university campus. Voter approval came in November 1960. After nearly three years of planning, University officials and area residents attended ground-breaking ceremonies for the first permanent buildings.

In the fall of 1965, SIUE moved onto its new campus just 25 miles from St. Louis—2,660 acres of rolling land and woods dotted with lakes along bluffs flanking the Mississippi River. Much of the land still retains its natural shape.

Emphasizing teaching, research and public service programs, SIUE is a fully accredited comprehensive university with more than 13,000 enrolled students.

After being classified as a master’s-large institution for most of its history, SIUE was reclassified in January 2019 by The Carnegie Commission on Higher Education to the newly created doctoral/professional universities category. The University is proud to be ranked by Washington Monthly among the top doctoral universities in the nation.

The City of Edwardsville is ranked among the nation’s top 15 safest college towns by Safewise in its 2021 Safest College Towns list. More than half of SIUE’s 118,000 graduates live and work in the St. Louis region.

SIUE makes more than a $514 million economic impact on the region every year.

The University offers undergraduate and graduate areas of study encompassing the arts, sciences, nursing, education, health, human behavior, business and engineering. The Schools of Dental Medicine and Pharmacy award first professional doctoral degrees in dental medicine (DMD) and in pharmacy (PharmD).

Doctoral programs are available in nursing practice and educational leadership. A cooperative PhD program in pharmacology and neuroscience is offered with the SIU School of Medicine, and cooperative PhD programs in history, engineering science, environmental resources and policy, and computer engineering are offered with SIU Carbondale.

At SIUE, students find comprehensive educational opportunities and a community in which individuals support each other in their search for knowledge and individual development.

HISTORY OF ACADEMIC REGALIA

COMMENCEMENT AT SIUE

The pageantry of the academic procession is used for many of the formal and significant events at SIUE.

square to symbolize a book. A different style, called the Cambridge cap, resembles a large beret.

Inherited from the medieval universities of the 11th and 12th centuries when woolen gowns and hoods were worn by scholars for warmth in unheated quarters, the wearing of academic vestments and the procession were not adopted throughout the United States until the late 19th century.

The use of a dark hood in academic processions is thought to have arisen from the clerical practice of wearing a cap or mantle in religious processions during the 12th and 13th centuries, when universities arose from cathedral schools.

Academic life in the Middle Ages began first in the church, then in the guilds. The teaching guild was the guild of the master of arts, where the bachelor was the apprentice of the master and the dress was the outward sign of privilege and responsibility, designed to distinguish the wearer from the merchants and other townsmen.

Principal features of academic dress are the gown, cap and hood. Both Cambridge and Oxford Universities, since the 15th century, have made academic dress a matter of university control, even to its minor details, and have repeatedly published revised regulations. American universities agreed on a definite system in 1894. In 1932, the American Council on Education presented a revised code which, for the most part, governs the style of academic dress today.

Traditionally, gowns are also black. In recent years, however, a number of universities have adopted other hues which signify the school’s traditional colors, such as crimson for Harvard, blue for Yale.

The bachelor’s gown is a yoked, closed-front garment with long, pointed sleeves. The master’s has long, closed sleeves slit just above the elbow, permitting the forearms to protrude. The doctor’s has full, bell-shaped sleeves and is trimmed with velvet panels down the front, and three velvet bars on each sleeve. The color of the panels and sleeves varies to indicate the doctoral field.

The academic hoods, worn around the neck and down the back of the gown, are lined with the official colors of the college or university conferring the degree. The binding or edging of the hood usually represents the subject of the degree.

The cap worn almost universally in academic processions is the Oxford cap, better known as the mortarboard.

From poetry we learn that the cap of scholarship was

Mace

Chancellor’s Medallion

The SIUE ceremonial mace was created in 1981 by the late Michael E. Mason. He earned both a Bachelor of Arts and Master of Fine Arts from SIUE and served as curator of the University Museum. At that time, the president of SIUE (the position now called chancellor), Earl Lazerson, instituted traditional, formal regalia for use on significant ceremonial occasions. In 2005, Chancellor Vaughn Vandegrift restored the tradition of the mace at all commencement and other academic ceremonies. A stand was subsequently constructed and, in recognition of the values of the University, engraved brass plaques were added to the ceremonial mace with the words Citizenship, Excellence, Inclusion, Integrity and Wisdom.

The Chancellor’s Chain of Office is a symbol of the guidance and inspiration of current University leadership building on the achievements of the past. It is a reminder of our accomplishmments, as well as the challenges and opportunities to come. The medallion of the chain has the mark of the University surrounded in laurels, a time-honored symbol of education. The chain bears Chancellor Minor’s name and the names of past leaders of SIUE.

International Flags The flags flown at commencement represent the home nations of all SIUE students. Nearly 400 international students from 62 nations currently attend SIUE. International students contribute to the University’s diverse learning environment by sharing their unique culture and introducing new perspectives to SIUE.

Granting of Degrees Candidates for degrees listed in this commencement program are those who completed degree requirements or who, at the time of publication, were reasonably certain of completing degree requirements. Inclusion in this publication may not be construed as documentation of completion of degree requirements. Certification of the conferral of a degree is by receipt of a diploma or official transcript noting degree completion.

Beautifully situated on 2,660 acres, SIUE offers easy access to professional and cultural opportunities in Metropolitan St. Louis, located just 25 miles from campus.

HOODING

SCHOOL OF BUSINESS: UNDERGRADUATE

Hooding is a special recognition for doctoral candidates during which the Dean of the School of Pharmacy places the doctoral hood upon the shoulders of each graduate, signifying his or her success in completing the pharmacy program. Hooding allows students to share the accomplishment of earning the professional doctorate with family, friends and the School of Pharmacy faculty and staff.

James T. Minor, Chancellor of Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, presiding

A tradition dating to the Middle Ages, the olive green velvet facing of the hood denotes the wearer’s pharmacy discipline. The red and white color of the lining represents the institution from which the degree was awarded, in this case Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. The velvet tam, rather than the traditional mortarboard cap, is commonly worn by doctorate holders.

SCHOOL OF NURSING: GRADUATE AND UNDERGRADUATE FRIDAY, MAY 6, NOON | FIRST COMMUNITY ARENA AT THE VADALABENE CENTER James T. Minor, Chancellor of Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, presiding

The SIUE School of Nursing offers dynamic undergraduate programs of study that are both theoretical and practical, designed to meet current and future challenges of nursing and healthcare. The School prepares graduates to work in a wide variety of clinical settings and provide the necessary foundation for a master’s and doctoral degree in nursing.

National Anthem: “The Star-Spangled Banner” Lyrics by Francis Scott Key Led by Samuel Brown, Music Education and Vocal Performance Student, College of Arts and Sciences Music by the Meridian Brass Quartet

The traditional bachelor of science in nursing (BS) program is intended for students seeking their first degree with no prior college experience. The post-baccalaureate accelerated bachelor of science degree in nursing (ABS) option allows students with a bachelor’s degree to attain a BS degree in nursing through three semesters and one summer session. It is an intense, defined curriculum with a combination of classroom instruction and clinical experiences for students seeking a second baccalaureate degree.

Welcoming Remarks P. Denise Cobb, Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs

Registered nurses (RNs) who hold an associate degree in nursing or a nursing diploma can pursue the RN to BS option. This baccalaureate program is offered in a flexible, entirely online format to accommodate the needs of working RNs. The program format consists of eight-week courses and can be completed in one year if most of the general education requirements are met at the time of admission.

Remarks from the President Dan Mahony, President, SIU System Remarks from the Chancellor James T. Minor, Chancellor Honors and Awards Recognition Ann Popkess, Assistant Dean for Undergraduate Programs, School of Nursing Remarks on Behalf of the Class of 2022 James Clancy, Doctor of Nursing Practice, Nurse Anesthesia Candidates Commissioned as Second Lieutenants and Members of Honor Societies Candidates for Graduate Degrees and Presentation of Doctoral Hoods Jerry Weinberg, Associate Provost for Research and Dean of the Graduate School Candidates for Baccalaureate Degrees Mark Luer, Interim Dean, School of Nursing

The goal of the SIUE School of Nursing graduate program is to prepare expert nurses for leadership in professional nursing practice and patient-centered healthcare delivery. The School offers two master’s (MS) programs, two fully online dual degree programs and a doctor of nursing practice degree (DNP) with three specializations.

The fully online MS in Healthcare and Nursing Administration (HCNA) prepares nurses for entry into management positions in healthcare organizations, and refines the skills of experienced nurse managers to mentor them for executive-level positions.

A dual MS in HCNA and Healthcare Informatics provides a unique opportunity. The online program equips healthcare professionals to leverage prior education and experience to provide leadership to teams using technology to improve patient healthcare options. The MS in Nurse Educator program is meeting the ever-increasing need for nursing faculty. SIUE’s nurse educator graduates are actively sought throughout the St. Louis metropolitan region, as well as nationally.

The new psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner DNP specialization addresses the mental healthcare crisis by providing students with the clinical competencies and theoretical foundation to deliver quality psychiatric mental healthcare. The nurse anesthesia DNP specialization prepares registered nurses with baccalaureate degrees to provide individualized anesthetic patient care for surgical, diagnostic, therapeutic or pain management procedures. The family nurse practitioner DNP specialization program provides students with the required clinical competencies and theoretical foundation to deliver quality primary care for patients and their families. The post-master’s DNP program is designed for nurses holding a master’s degree as an advanced practice nurse, or holding a bachelor of science in nursing and a master’s degree appropriate to their advanced nursing practice role. The dual Masters of Business Administration (MBA) and DNP is primarily online with two on-campus immersion experiences.

The program is designed to develop the professional capabilities of managers working in business, focusing on topics such as quantitative analysis, decision making, negotiation, enhancing quality and innovation and program management.
