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.

Giving Shapes Lives

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.

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. 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 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.

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.

The foregoing is an adaptation of an Address given at a Graduation Ceremony at the University of Birmingham by Emeritus Professor R H C Davis and reprinted in his book ‘From Alfred the Great to Stephen’ (Hambledon Press 1991), pp. 307-309. It is reproduced with kind permission of the author’s widow.

The University of Newcastle (UON) would like to express its gratitude to the many donors and sponsors who support the University. Donations and sponsorships help fund research that could save a life, contribute to important community projects and support students to realise their dreams and receive their degrees through scholarships and prizes.

Around 250 scholarships and 280 prizes – all funded through donations – will be awarded to students across UON this year.

Research supported through philanthropy has included exploring how to prevent type 2 diabetes in at risk males, investigating ways to save the endangered green and golden bell frog, discovering new medications for depression and helping to fight one of Australia’s biggest public health issues, obesity, just to name a few.

The University of Newcastle is ranked in the top three per cent of universities in the world and we continue to build our reputation as a world-class institution through our dedication to research, innovation and high quality teaching and learning.

Thank you to all our generous supporters for your ongoing commitment!

Philanthropy: helping to shape students’ futures At the University of Newcastle we pride ourselves on doing things differently. For 40 years, we’ve pioneered an approach to equity and excellence that has transformed the way we view education.

We’ve broken down barriers and opened our doors to help thousands of students enter university and thrive in their chosen career.

And we’ve seen first-hand how the gift of education can change lives. Many of our students juggle work and family commitments, move away from home or travel long distances to study. Others face huge challenges in their personal lives that make learning at university harder than it is for most.

That’s why we created the Shaping Futures Scholarship Fund to provide financial assistance to academically dedicated students who are facing hardship or challenges that make it difficult for them to complete their degrees - those students most in need.

Shaping Futures Scholarships are entirely funded through donations from alumni, staff and the community. These scholarships provide support to help cover the cost of tuition fees, travel costs, computer equipment, text books, living and accommodation expenses.

“I’ve seen first-hand the challenges so many of our students face.

Giving to a student scholarship is just a small, very tangible way to help. A student who receives a scholarship overcomes their hurdles today and makes an impact on all those around them tomorrow.” Keryl Kavanagh, Shaping Futures Scholarship Fund donor.

The Hon Geoffrey Bentley Geoffrey Bentley graduated from the University of Newcastle with a Bachelor of Arts in 1961. He served his country for over 35 years as a front-line diplomat. Geoffrey was the first University of Newcastle graduate to make a career in the Australian Diplomatic Service. His early career from 1963 was devoted to promoting Australia’s Asia relationships in Malaysia, India, Cambodia and Singapore. In 1979 he was appointed Deputy High Commissioner to New Zealand and played a significant role in forging the ANZ Closer Economic Relations Agreement - one of the most comprehensive bilateral free trade agreements in existence. He later held a range of senior Australian Government positions, including Head of Strategic Policy, where he was responsible for the political dimension of the Australia-US defence and security relationship.

Geoffrey was appointed Australian Consul General to Hong Kong in 1989 and was the inaugural Patron of the University’s Hong Kong Alumni Chapter. In 1993, then Foreign Minister and Leader of the Government in the Senate, Senator Gareth Evans QC, appointed Geoffrey as his Chief of Staff - a position that called for both fortitude and adept policy advice. Geoffrey’s stellar international service career culminated in his appointment as Australia’s Ambassador to the Russian Federation from 1994-1998.

OCCASIONAL ADDRESS Emeritus Professor Maree Gleeson OAM Emeritus Professor Maree Gleeson is an immunologist who has held leadership positions in health services, health policy and medical research. Emeritus Professor was Director of the Hunter Medical Research Institute between 2006 and 2011, a joint venture between the University of Newcastle and Hunter New England Health. Under her leadership a strategic plan was implemented resulting in substantial growth in research funding, including capital funding and construction of the $90 million medical research facility on the John Hunter Hospital campus at Rankin Park.

Emeritus Professor Gleeson has 35 years of experience in corporate leadership. From 2004-2006 Maree was the Inaugural Director of Medical Research in the NSW Ministry for Science and Medical Research, responsible for policy development and funding of medical research across NSW. Emeritus Professor has over 30 years of experience in the health sector in diagnostic pathology and was the Director of Immunology for the Hunter Area Pathology Service from 2002-2004.

Emeritus Professor Gleeson’s research career spans the development of mucosal immunity in children and the role of respiratory infections in the predisposition to asthma, allergy and SIDS. A major focus for the past 25 years has been in the field of exercise immunology in collaboration with the Australian Institute of Sport on the causes and control of respiratory illness in elite athletes.

Emeritus Professor Gleeson has been involved in teaching undergraduate immunology in medical, nursing and biomedical science degrees. She has supervised honours and research higher degree students. During her period as Director of HMRI, Maree established the INSIGHT mid-career researcher leadership development program and was a mentor to many researchers in the women’s leadership programs. In 2011 Emeritus Professor was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia for service to medicine through the Hunter Medical Research Institute, to education, and to professional associations.

Emeritus Professor Gleeson is currently a Non-Executive Director on the boards of Hunter Water, Central Coast Local Health District and Hunter Research Foundation, and serves on the National Health & Medical Research Council’s Preventative and Community Health Committee.

OCCASIONAL ADDRESS Emeritus Professor Margaret McMillan OAM Over the past three decades Emeritus Professor Margaret McMillan has made substantial contributions to the development of high quality academic health programs in addition to building areas of research strength and impact in the field of nursing practice and systems. Both spheres of achievement have translated to considerable contributions to local, national and international health care education and practice.

Her research endeavours, involving grant income of more than $2.2 million, are strongly aligned to her teaching capabilities and have included major projects for the Australian Nursing Federation, the former Australian Nursing Council, Commonwealth Department of Veteran Affairs and the Queensland Nursing Council, amongst other national and international professional and industry bodies.

Internationally, Emeritus Professor McMillan has engaged in policy, practice and research in India, South Africa, Indonesia, The Maldives, Japan and China. This has included her significant work to build the capacity of nursing and medical professionals through AusAid projects focusing on curriculum and professional development, in addition to the undertaking of quality assurance and professional practice research.

Emeritus Professor McMillan continues to work with peers to publish widely in health education literature including journal articles, book chapters and conference presentations. She has over 90 publications, and has been invited to present at more than 35 conferences both nationally and in China, Mongolia, South Korea, Japan, USA, Taiwan, Ireland, Indonesia and Thailand. In recognition of services to medical and health education Emeritus Professor McMillan received an Order of Australia in 2010.
