SASHES Global Education

Veterans

UTulsa acknowledges the invaluable global engagement experience of students who have either participated in a study abroad program during their time at the university or have traveled to the U.S. to study as international students. These students are distinguished by a red sash adorned with a globe.

Students who have served in the United States Armed Services wear sashes with stars and stripes indicating their status as U.S. veterans.

THE MACE The grand marshal of ceremonies carries the mace, symbolizing authority. It features a pewter upper portion with die-formed shapes, hand-engraved surfaces, black onyx stones, and The University of Tulsa seal. Its cocobolo wood shaft provides striking contrast. Designed by William R. Derrevere, it spans approximately four feet.
