THE GRADUATION CEREMONY

THE MACE The Mace is the symbol of formal authority. The Mace used today belongs to the University of Newcastle and was designed by gold and silversmith, Gerald Benney. It is made of Australian walnut and silver and its head represents an open book – the traditional symbol of learning. The Mace was a gift from the University of New South Wales to commemorate the establishment of the University of Newcastle as an autonomous institution on 1 January, 1965. It is always borne ahead of the Chancellor in the academic procession during formal ceremonies such as today’s presentation of academic awards.

THE UNIVERSITY OF NEWCASTLE FANFARES In mid-1994, staff and students of the University’s Faculty of Music were invited to submit entries for a competition to compose the University Fanfares. The composition had to be capable of being performed either on organ or on brass. The winning entry by Professor Robert Constable, was first played publicly at the University’s overseas graduation ceremony held in Singapore in August 1994. The Fanfares are performed at all ceremonial functions to herald the entry and departure of the Chancellor and other members of the Council. With respect and collaboration, the University of Newcastle embraces a united approach to equality and inclusiveness for all Australian peoples.

THE UNIVERSITY MEDAL The award of a University Medal is an honour made only when there is a candidate of sufficient merit. To be considered for this award, a graduate must have a consistent record of exceptional academic achievement at all levels of a bachelor’s degree program, and qualify for a bachelor’s degree with first class honours.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF GRADUATION

The graduation ceremony is one of great antiquity. Its essential features have been the same since the 12th century when the first universities came into existence. Its necessary constituents are the Chancellor or his or her deputy, the academic staff, the graduates, and the public.

The church had a monopoly of education, partly because it was the guardian of true doctrine, and partly because clerics were almost the only people who could read and write. As a result, the only person who could license a teacher was the bishop of a diocese until, under pressure of other business; he deputed the task to his chief secretary or chancellor. As learning spread, teachers wanted a licence to teach not just in one diocese, but everywhere, and the only person who could give them that was the Pope. The Chancellor’s authority, then, came from the Pope. But at the Reformation, Henry VIII assumed for the Crown all the rights which had previously been the Pope’s in England. That is why all subsequent universities in England have been created by Royal Charter. It is for this reason also that the Chancellor does not wear ecclesiastical robes, as would have been worn in the Middle Ages, but robes similar to those of the Lord Chancellor of England.

The second group participating in the ceremony is the academic staff. In the 12th century they would all have been called “masters” or MAs. At that date they were paid no salaries, but hired their own lecture rooms and charged their own fees. But they also formed themselves into a guild or union, which is what universitas originally meant. As in all guilds they were insistent that they, and only they, should determine who should be of their number, and since this involved saying who should be teachers, they soon found themselves in conflict with the Chancellor. In the 13th century they won a great victory when they persuaded the Pope to decree that Chancellors were obliged to confer degrees on all those nominated by the masters. That is why the masters examine the candidates, why the Dean, acting as their spokesperson, reads out the names of those who are to receive degrees, and why the masters at this ceremony watch to see that the Chancellor or his or her Deputy does what is required.

Thirdly the graduates. The word “degree” comes from the Latin gradus, which means “a step”. When students are admitted to a Bachelor degree they move one step up towards the mastership. When they are admitted to a master’s degree they climb another step and come up on a level with the masters, who then receive them into their guild or universitas. In the Middle Ages they would then have stayed on the dais, so that their old master could invest them with the symbols of office. But that was only part of the business. The new master had to deliver an inaugural lecture, entertain the whole guild of masters to dinner and preside over disputations for forty days continuously. For that reason, taking one’s master’s degree was called “inception”, or the beginning of one’s career as a master.

The academic gowns are derived from the everyday dress of the medieval clergy. In the Middle Ages they were not open in front, but closed like a clergyman’s cassock. It was in about 1500 that academics had the front opened up so as to display the fine clothes which they were wearing underneath. The hood was the normal medieval headwear, but it soon acquired a coloured lining. By the 17th century, if not earlier, these colours were strictly controlled so that anyone could identify from the colour of a graduate’s hood, the university and the degree.

The public is the fourth participant. It has an important function because the whole point of the proceedings is that they should be seen and heard by valid witnesses. The public hears the words of the Dean and the Chancellor and sees the new graduates dressed in their respective gowns or robes.

Mr Olsen has often referred to his childhood links with Newcastle in his writings and teachings, as well as displaying its recognised influence in his art. Throughout his career, he has significantly challenged the perception and boundaries of landscape painting in Australia.

Mr Olsen began his formal study of art in 1947 at the Dattilo Rubbo Art School in Sydney. He went on to study at the influential Julian Aston Art School, also in Sydney. His first major exhibition was at the Macquarie Galleries in 1955.

One of Mr Olsen’s most successful artworks, the mural Salute to Five Bells, hangs in the Sydney Opera House. His works can also be found in all Australian state art gallery collections, the National Gallery of Australia and regional galleries nationwide including local Newcastle Region Art Gallery. Corporate and private collections in Australasia, the United Kingdom, Europe and the United States also feature Mr Olsen’s pieces.

In 1977 he was presented with an Order of the British Empire for services to the arts and he received an Order of Australia in 2001, also for his services to the arts.

Throughout her career Sister McGuirk has been a prominent influence in the NSW education system. For 21 years she served as the Headmistress of Monte Sant’ Angelo Mercy College in North Sydney, during which time she transformed the traditional curriculum by introducing technology-based education. She also diversified the student population by encouraging the enrolment of Asian students and other international students, especially American Field Scholars and students from non-English speaking families, bringing in a proportion of nonCatholic and international students.

A key figure in the Association of Heads of Independent Schools, Sister McGuirk has served on ministerial committees of inquiry into school discipline, teacher education and the Higher School Certificate. In addition, she was a representative on committees of assessment and accreditation of the NSW High School Education Board.

Since retiring from teaching, Sister McGuirk has turned her attentions to researching the life of the Founder of the Sisters of Mercy in Sydney Sister Elizabeth McQuoin. Her subsequent book Elizabeth McQuoin: Singing to the end of the Service brings together the role of Catholicism, personal commitment and social upheaval at a critical time in Australia’s history.

A Sister of Mercy since 1949, she holds a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Letters from the University of New England and a Master of Education from Harvard. In 1992, Sister McGuirk received an Order of Australia for services to Education.

VICE-CHANCELLOR’S SCHOOL TEACHER AWARD

The Vice-Chancellor’s School Teacher Award is an award for secondary school teachers. This award recognises the vital role the early years of education play in the choices that students make about their future, including the decision to come to University. Recipients of this award were nominated by students in the final year of their studies. The award is recognition of the value that students and the University place on educational experiences in secondary school.

Phillip Booth Mr Phillip Booth is a science teacher at Henry Kendall High School. Mr Booth is an exceptional teacher and mentor, investing time in each individual student to ensure that they meet their academic potential. Providing support above and beyond the regular demands of his role, Mr Booth donates his time outside of the classroom to tutoring and mentoring students who seek to further progress their learning. His deep knowledge of his subject is equalled by his willingness to provide emotional support where required, and the result is lasting success for his students well beyond their high school years. Mr Booth’s impact on his students as an educator and guide has been profound. He is a very worthy recipient of this award.

Debbie Seckold Mrs Debbie Seckold is a mathematics teacher at Lithgow High School. Mrs Seckold impacts her students’ lives in ways that are both practical and personal.

She not only provides high quality mathematics classes but also instils the belief in her students that they can be high achievers in spite of challenges.

Mrs Seckold also teaches her students valuable skills in time management and study techniques, which assists them beyond the high school classroom into their university education. To Mrs Seckold, each individual student is a person with potential to be nurtured, not just a face in the crowd. She has significantly impacted her students’ educational experience, and her effort, dedication, support and quality of teaching exemplifies what it means to be a good teacher.

The University of Newcastle respects and acknowledges the Aboriginal land on which the Australian campuses of the University are located. We acknowledge the Aboriginal nations on whose traditional lands the University has a presence, respecting and acknowledging the traditional peoples and the cultural significance and history of the land.

The University is aware of the impact of the alienation and other forms of injustices including the removal of children, the loss of land, the destruction of languages and culture, and the ongoing struggle for social and restorative justice. Through acknowledging and understanding past losses and injustices and through committing to redressing the social and economic challenges and ongoing racism, we will continue to move forward together to a better future.

The University recognises that education plays an integral role in providing a foundation and platform for the exercise of self-determination and the empowerment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Through collaboration and the provision of culturally responsive education the University seeks to educate and contribute to the development of a harmonious community.

The University’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities have supported the University in ensuring an Aboriginal presence at the University and appropriate and effective levels of consultation and collaboration through the sharing of Aboriginal voices, cultural wisdom and knowledge. These attributes are essential to moving forward to a future of equality and respect in teaching and learning, research, cultural inclusion, celebrating diverse cultures and success. The University acknowledges and appreciates the contribution and support by all communities. We will continue to build on existing partnerships and wherever possible forge respectful relationships designed to contribute to the ongoing endeavour of redressing the circumstance of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander education, health, cultures, languages, social justice, employment and empowerment.

The University is committed to providing an environment that is free from racism and discrimination, developing opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to access and succeed in higher education. The University embraces the unique and diverse cultures of Aboriginal – the oldest continuing culture in the world – and Torres Strait Island peoples and to ensure the growth of knowledge for all Australians.

With respect and collaboration, the University of Newcastle embraces a united approach to equality and inclusiveness for all Australian peoples.

THE GRADUATION CEREMONY

THE MACE The Mace is the symbol of formal authority. The Mace used today belongs to the University of Newcastle and was designed by gold and silversmith, Gerald Benney. It is made of Australian walnut and silver and its head represents an open book – the traditional symbol of learning. The Mace was a gift from the University of New South Wales to commemorate the establishment of the University of Newcastle as an autonomous institution on 1 January, 1965. It is always borne ahead of the Chancellor in the academic procession during formal ceremonies such as today’s presentation of academic awards.

THE UNIVERSITY OF NEWCASTLE FANFARES In mid-1994, staff and students of the University’s Faculty of Music were invited to submit entries for a competition to compose the University Fanfares. The composition had to be capable of being performed either on organ or on brass. The winning entry by Professor Robert Constable, was first played publicly at the University’s overseas graduation ceremony held in Singapore in August 1994. The Fanfares are performed at all ceremonial functions to herald the entry and departure of the Chancellor and other members of the Council. With respect and collaboration, the University of Newcastle embraces a united approach to equality and inclusiveness for all Australian peoples.

THE UNIVERSITY MEDAL The award of a University Medal is an honour made only when there is a candidate of sufficient merit. To be considered for this award, a graduate must have a consistent record of exceptional academic achievement at all levels of a bachelor’s degree program, and qualify for a bachelor’s degree with first class honours.

07

A BRIEF HISTORY OF GRADUATION

The graduation ceremony is one of great antiquity. Its essential features have been the same since the 12th century when the first universities came into existence. Its necessary constituents are the Chancellor or his or her deputy, the academic staff, the graduates, and the public.

The church had a monopoly of education, partly because it was the guardian of true doctrine, and partly because clerics were almost the only people who could read and write. As a result, the only person who could license a teacher was the bishop of a diocese until, under pressure of other business; he deputed the task to his chief secretary or chancellor. As learning spread, teachers wanted a licence to teach not just in one diocese, but everywhere, and the only person who could give them that was the Pope. The Chancellor’s authority, then, came from the Pope. But at the Reformation, Henry VIII assumed for the Crown all the rights which had previously been the Pope’s in England. That is why all subsequent universities in England have been created by Royal Charter. It is for this reason also that the Chancellor does not wear ecclesiastical robes, as would have been worn in the Middle Ages, but robes similar to those of the Lord Chancellor of England.

The second group participating in the ceremony is the academic staff. In the 12th century they would all have been called “masters” or MAs. At that date they were paid no salaries, but hired their own lecture rooms and charged their own fees. But they also formed themselves into a guild or union, which is what universitas originally meant. As in all guilds they were insistent that they, and only they, should determine who should be of their number, and since this involved saying who should be teachers, they soon found themselves in conflict with the Chancellor. In the 13th century they won a great victory when they persuaded the Pope to decree that Chancellors were obliged to confer degrees on all those nominated by the masters. That is why the masters examine the candidates, why the Dean, acting as their spokesperson, reads out the names of those who are to receive degrees, and why the masters at this ceremony watch to see that the Chancellor or his or her Deputy does what is required of him.

Thirdly the graduates. The word “degree” comes from the Latin gradus, which means “a step”. When students are admitted to a Bachelor degree they move one step up towards the mastership. When they are admitted to a master’s degree they climb another step and come up on a level with the masters, who then receive them into their guild or universitas. In the Middle Ages they would then have stayed on the dais, so that their old master could invest them with the symbols of office. But that was only part of the business. The new master had to deliver an inaugural lecture, entertain the whole guild of masters to dinner and preside over disputations for forty days continuously. For that reason, taking one’s master’s degree was called “inception”, or the beginning of one’s career as a master.

The academic gowns are derived from the everyday dress of the medieval clergy. In the Middle Ages they were not open in front, but closed like a clergyman’s cassock. It was in about 1500 that academics had the front opened up so as to display the fine clothes which they were wearing underneath. The hood was the normal medieval headwear, but it soon acquired a coloured lining. By the 17th century, if not earlier, these colours were strictly controlled so that anyone could identify from the colour of a graduate’s hood, the university and the degree.

The public is the fourth participant. It has an important function because the whole point of the proceedings is that they should be seen and heard by valid witnesses. The public hears the words of the Dean and the Chancellor and sees the new graduates dressed in their respective gowns or robes.

National Anthem Lindy Connett Honorary Doctorate and Occasional Speaker Professor Christopher Chen During a career spanning more than 40 years, Professor Christopher Chen has made many outstanding contributions to the knowledge and advancement of the field of reproductive medicine and is acknowledged as a pioneer of in-vitro fertilisation (IVF).

His initial research into sperm cryopreservation led to the establishment of Asia’s first sperm bank in Singapore. In the early 1980s, Professor Chen’s team at Adelaide’s Flinders Medical Centre became only the third centre in the world to achieve an IVF pregnancy. He went on to assist the conception of the world’s first IVF triplets in 1983, the world’s first frozen egg pregnancy in 1986, and Asia’s first set of sextuplets in 1998.

Professor Chen’s further scientific achievements identified the exact time of egg fertilisation and, as a result, pregnancy rates through IVF increased using his technique of assisted egg retrieval and delayed embryo transfer.

His research into cryopreservation paved the way for medical specialists across the world to begin freezing human eggs, and he was the first to identify the Early Pregnancy Factor that can detect a successful embryo transfer within hours of the procedure.

Professor Chen completed a Bachelor of Medicine at the National University of Singapore in 1964. He holds specialist degrees from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists in London and the Royal Australian College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists in Melbourne. He gained his Doctor of Medicine from the University of Queensland.

Since 1993 he has been Chief Executive Officer and Medical Director of the Christopher Chen Centre for Reproductive Medicine at Gleneagles Hospital in Singapore.

VICE-CHANCELLOR’S AWARD FOR PROGRAMS THAT ENHANCE LEARNING 2010

International Leadership Experience and Development Program (iLEAD) The International Leadership Experience and Development Program, or iLEAD as it is known, is a University-wide extra-curricular and co-curricular program.

The program provides students with the opportunity to gain knowledge, experience and skills in the areas of international leadership, international awareness, and community, integration and diversity.

The iLEAD program provides opportunities for students to develop their leadership potential through a broad range of activities including volunteering, cross-cultural community groups, international internships, Alumni Mentoring and study abroad and exchange programs.

Combining theory with experiential learning, students are able to model leadership qualities while they learn.

Being flexible and student-driven, the iLEAD program has attracted students from a broad range of socio-economic and academic backgrounds. This has effectively contributed to equity and diversity in a positive and cost-effective way. Since its inception in 2009, the iLEAD program has registered hundreds of students and reached out to many communities. This has greatly increased the University of Newcastle’s capacity to internationalise its campus and curriculum. iLEAD not only benefits program participants, but opens the door to other collaborations, both in Australia and overseas. The iLEAD Program is thoroughly deserving of this award. Steven McDonald will accept the award on behalf of the iLEAD team.
