The Board of Regents adopted the Regents Seal, shown above, in 1939 as the corporate seal of the University of Minnesota. The Latin motto, “Commune Vinculum Omnibus Artibus,” means “a common bond for all the arts.” The lamp represents the metaphysical sciences. The telescope represents the physical sciences. The plow represents the industrial arts, and the palette and brushes represent the fine arts.

Dear Graduates and Families,

We are grateful for your participation in this celebratory day. Our entire University community shares your joy in honoring this outstanding class of graduates.

The achievements of this year’s graduates during their time at the University of Minnesota Morris include persisting through what we hope was an unusual first year or two and participating in the revitalization of the campus community after pandemic limitations. In addition to gaining hands-on experience and earning their degrees, students in the class of 2023 have proven that they are adaptable and resilient. They are graduating as creative problem solvers, career-ready scholars, and community contributors, and with the experience of UMN Morris’s strong, clear set of values: commitment to access, appreciation for diversity in all its forms, and belief in the power of education for societal good. The UMN Morris Class of 2023, with its collective achievements, demonstrates the power of these values. We are confident that the Class of 2023 will go on to demonstrate that a UMN Morris education provides a strong and adaptable foundation for any career and an enriched and engaged life.

As one of the nation’s top public liberal arts colleges, UMN Morris provides talented students access to life-changing educational experiences. Our students strive to strengthen their communities, and this year’s graduates are no exception. Despite the pandemic challenges, this year’s graduates have studied abroad, led student organizations, and taken part in athletic competitions and musical, theatre, and dance performances. They have served the region and participated in creative and scholarly activities alongside award-winning teacher-scholars. These graduates exemplify our mission, and they are prepared to continue their lives as engaged and committed global citizens. We are immensely proud of them—of all they have accomplished and all they will accomplish.

Today we celebrate not only these outstanding graduates, but also each and every one of you who has stood by them: a powerful network of family and friends that made it possible for these students to succeed. I wish you a memorable and gratifying day as we celebrate together this landmark moment in our graduates’ lifelong journeys of growth and learning.

Land Acknowledgment

By offering this land acknowledgment, we affirm tribal sovereignty, express respect for Native peoples and nations, encourage understanding of our tuition waiver, and invite others to do the same. The University of Minnesota Morris is located along the river called Owobopte Wakpa by the Dakota people—a place from which Dakota turnips have been dug river—and Opinikani Zibi by the Anishinaabe— the place of wild potatoes river. These lands on the edge of mashkode akiing—prairie land—have been cared for and called home by the Dakota people, and later the Ojibwe people and other Native peoples, from time immemorial. Our state’s name, Minnesota, comes from the Dakota name for this region, Mni Sota Makoce—the land where the waters reflect the skies.

Before there was a University of Minnesota presence here, the site housed an American Indian boarding school established in 1887 by the Sisters of Mercy community of the Catholic Church under contract with the United States government. The United States government began directly operating the Morris Industrial School for Indians on this site in 1897; one building from the school remains on campus. Sixteen American Indian boarding schools in Minnesota and hundreds across the country separated children from their families and attempted to eliminate Native languages and cultures, with intergenerational impacts still felt across Indian Country. UMN Morris has joined the National Boarding School Healing Coalition and sought Dakota and Anishinaabe leaders’ guidance to bring greater truth telling, understanding, change, and healing regarding this history and the boarding school era.

In 1909, the federal government closed the school, transferring the campus and buildings to the State of Minnesota. The federal legislation and corresponding state statute stipulated that American Indian students be admitted to future educational institutions on the site “on terms of equality” with other students and “free of charge for tuition.” This federal mandate has its roots in treaty law and has been UMN Morris policy since our establishment as the University’s public liberal arts campus in 1960.

Acknowledging the land and our history in this place is an offering of solidarity with and respect for Native nations and peoples. In doing so, we reaffirm our commitment to our responsibilities rooted in this place and in the history of our campus site as a Native American boarding school, our distinctive mission as a public liberal arts college within Minnesota’s land-grant university, and our federal recognition as a Native American-Serving Nontribal Institution—the only four-year NASNTI university in the Upper Midwest.

Today, this region’s Dakota, Ojibwe, and other Native peoples are recognized as leaders in rebuilding Native Nations and reclaiming Indigenous lifeways. More than 300 Native American students from 70 tribal nations live and learn at UMN Morris.

We are committed to creating a university where Native American students can increasingly share, connect with, and deepen their knowledge of Indigenous peoples, nations, tribes, languages, sovereignty, and lifeways; where Native cultures are more present and reflected in campus life; and where all members of our community benefit from greater knowledge and understanding regarding our shared histories and the people indigenous to this place.

Curriculum, Distinction, and Honors Requirements

Degrees will be conferred as indicated on the students listed in this program subject to completion of all curriculum requirements. Candidates graduating “with high distinction” earned a University of Minnesota grade point average (GPA) of 3.90 or higher; those graduating “with distinction” earned a GPA from 3.75 to 3.89.

The UMN Morris Honors Program focuses on providing opportunities for curious, creative, and intellectually ambitious students to practice interdisciplinary thinking. All courses in the program are interdisciplinary and are frequently taught by two professors. Students complete the program with an interdisciplinary capstone project and defense and have an overall grade point average of 3.5 or higher at graduation.

Academic Regalia

American academic regalia—robes, caps, insignia, and emblems used by colleges and universities to identify themselves—indicate the academic rank of wearers. The custom began in Great Britain where robes and hoods designed for warmth were common clothing at the earliest universities. In 1895 the Academic Costume Code standardized American academic regalia, specifying style and usage of caps, gowns, hoods, and colors to represent degrees.

The fields of learning colors are as follows: white for arts, letters, humanities; khaki for business, accounting, commerce; copper for economics; light blue for education; brown for fine arts and architecture; silver for oratory and speech; crimson for journalism; purple for law; lemon for library science; pink for music; dark blue for philosophy; sage green for physical education; gold for psychology; peacock blue for public administration; salmon pink for public health; golden yellow for science; citron for social work; scarlet for theology; orange for engineering.

Masters, specialists, and doctors wear hoods lined with the official colors of the university from which the degree is granted. Tassel colors indicate the academic program area. Gown sleeves distinguish educational levels: bachelor, pointed; master, oblong; and doctor and specialist, bell-shaped.

Mace

Once a medieval symbol of war, the mace has emerged from its history to become a symbol of peaceful leadership. As an emblem of order and authority, the ceremonial staff is carried by a senior faculty at the head of official processions, inciting the pomp and pageantry of university ceremonial occasions.
