Dear Summer and Fall 2015 Graduates,
Congratulations to you, our newest graduates! We welcome
your families and friends who have anticipated this day —
this triumph — with immense pride. And we welcome you
as our newest alumni.
You have the unique distinction of being MSU Denver’s
first graduates during its 50th year — our golden
anniversary. I have served as president of this incredible
institution for 10 years, so I know firsthand that many of
you discovered golden opportunities: a high-quality, highvalue education guided by professors who truly care about
your transformation into successful, productive members
of your communities.
Since our founding in 1965, we now offer 244 degree
options, including master’s degrees. We are a university with three colleges and a new
School of Education. We have built the Student Success Building, the Hotel and Hospitality
Learning Center and our brand-new Regency Athletic Complex at MSU Denver. We have been
recognized nationally for everything from our services for veteran students and our exceptional
aviation program to the number of Latinos we graduate and our leadership in STEM (science,
technology, engineering and math) education.
But your alma mater will not rest on its laurels. In 2017, we will add master’s degrees in
Business Administration and Health Administration and open our Aerospace and Engineering
Sciences Building, which will house the Institute for Advanced Manufacturing Sciences and a
new undergraduate degree in Advanced Manufacturing Sciences.
Recently, the city of Denver named MSU Denver as a leader and partner in its IMAGINE
2020 Cultural Plan — with good reason. Already respected for our fine arts programs, we
are developing an innovative partnership with the Detroit Institute of Music Education in
which our music faculty will teach our performance, songwriting and music entrepreneurship
curriculum to DIME students in Detroit. In the future, we anticipate starting a program in
Denver and then in other cities.
While these are significant achievements, there is nothing of which I am more proud than what
you have accomplished. And what you do next will make us honored to have you as alumni. Please
accept my congratulations on joining the already 85,000-strong cadre of MSU Denver graduates!
Sincerely,
Stephen M. Jordan, Ph.D.
President

Outstanding Fall Graduate Award
Kayleen Tyler
Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor
in Criminal Justice, Summa Cum Laude
Kayleen Tyler has all the qualities that make a great
Roadrunner – an academic’s mind, a fighter’s spirit and a
servant’s heart.
Her 4.0 GPA is a testament to her success in the classroom,
but only tells part of the story. As a first-generation student
who earned her associate’s degree from a local community
college, Tyler persevered amid transition, overcoming pitfalls
that might have slowed her down with hard work and
smart planning. For her drive and dedication to academic
achievement, she has been recognized by the National Honor Society for Psychology and the
International Golden Key Honour Society.
And yet her work outside the classroom might be even more impressive. One of her professors
described Tyler as having a “servant’s heart,” as demonstrated by her commitment to helping
others. For the last eight years, Tyler has taken care of three elderly family members. She
provides care, assistance and companionship to her grandparents and great-grandmother, who
has dementia. She cleans their houses, helps them shop and listens to their stories because
their memories give her strength, laughter and a better understanding of family.
Influenced by that experience, Tyler decided to do an internship at Denver Metro Village
Senior Community, an independent-living community for low-income seniors. She serves as a
social services assistant and helps facilitate activities for the residents, while also building her
knowledge about the field, including government assistance programs.
For her dedication to service, academic success and interest in the topic, Tyler was handpicked
by Professor Cheryl Sanders to serve as her teaching assistant for Psychology of Adulthood and
Aging. Not surprisingly, Sanders says Tyler excelled in the role, going above and beyond the
call of duty, often tutoring students who were struggling.
In her application essay for the Outstanding Fall Graduate Award, Tyler described her personal
transformation during her time at MSU Denver from someone who “has never been one to
stand out in a crowd” to someone with “renewed self-confidence” who is not satisfied keeping
her head bent low but rather valiantly takes advantage of experiences that come her way.
As winner of the Outstanding Fall Graduate Award, Kayleen Tyler stands out from the crowd –
for her keen mind, generous heart and commitment to bettering her life and the lives of others.

MSU Denver: Transforming Lives, Communities
and Higher Education
From its opening in 1965 as a high-quality, high-value and yet accessible college with 1,189
students to its evolution to a 20,500-student university, Metropolitan State University of
Denver defines what “transformational” means in higher education.
Through public-private partnerships, MSU Denver has become a change agent that responds
to critical workforce needs and gives our graduates a competitive edge. Our Hotel and Hospitality
Learning Center, in partnership with Sage Hospitality, trains Colorado’s future hospitality,
events and tourism professionals. The needs of the state’s aerospace industry will be addressed
when our Aerospace and Engineering Sciences (AES) Building opens in 2017. The AES will house
the Institute for Advanced Manufacturing Sciences and an undergraduate degree that integrates
STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) disciplines.
Our transformative innovation continues into the future through our developing partnership
with the Detroit Institute of Music Education, which will offer its students in Detroit MSU
Denver’s curriculum in performance, songwriting and music entrepreneurship taught by our
music faculty.
And in 2017, MSU Denver will launch master’s programs in Business Administration
and Health Administration, bringing its total number of graduate degrees to five and
undergraduate degrees to 67.
Throughout its first 50 years, MSU Denver never lost sight of its focus on underrepresented
students. With a 37 percent ethnic-minority student population, MSU Denver overwhelmingly
leads Colorado’s four-year institutions in diversity, including the enrollment of ASSET students
(undocumented Colorado high school graduates). Within the next few years, we will achieve
federal designation as a Hispanic Serving Institution, opening up opportunities for all of our
students.
The University prides itself on having a population that is 32 percent first-generation college
students who, after graduation, will help transform their families and communities. And we
are also proud of our ranking by Military Times as one of the top 50 colleges in the U.S. for
veterans in its “Best for Vets: Colleges 2016” report.
The betterment of our community is another key component of the University’s role. For instance,
the recently opened Regency Athletic Complex at MSU Denver, home to Roadrunner baseball,
softball, soccer and tennis, is available to youth organizations, surrounding low-income neighbors
and community groups.
MSU Denver will continue to transform lives for the next 50 years, creating great promise for
our students, our graduates and Colorado.

Academic Regalia
Academic attire is modeled after monks’ clothing
from the Middle Ages, when college faculty
and students were members of religious orders.
In England, the faculty of many colleges and
universities still wears gowns, hoods and caps
in the classroom. 
In the early 20th century, colleges and
universities throughout the world adopted
guidelines for the design and colors of academic
regalia. An institution may design and register
special attire for its administrators and
graduates, but it must conform to certain
standards. Once registered, the design and
color combination may not be duplicated by
other institutions. 
The bachelor’s gown is most often black and has
long sleeves that taper to a point in the back. It
is always worn closed.
The gown signifying the master’s degree also is
usually black, but may be worn open or closed. It
features oblong sleeves that hang below the wrist,
tapering to a square cut with a cutaway arc. 
Although usually black, the doctoral gown is sometimes seen in colors—usually gold, purple,
blue or red. The gown may be worn open or closed. The opening of the gown is faced with
velvet, and three velvet chevrons run across its bell-shaped sleeves. The velvet facing and
chevrons may be black or the color representing the graduate’s field of study. 
The hood varies in length and shape according to the degree it represents: the shortest and
smallest signifies a bachelor’s degree, and the longest and widest signifies a doctoral degree.
The velvet bordering the hood represents the graduate’s field of study.
The satin lining of the hood, each a specific design, represents the college or university at
which the individual earned his or her degree. 
The Oxford cap, or mortarboard as it is better known, completes the attire. Those holding
graduate degrees usually wear black tassels on the Oxford cap, but those holding doctoral
degrees may wear tassels of gold thread and may also elect to wear a four-sided or eightsided velvet tam instead of the Oxford cap. Some universities have designated the Cambridge
cap—a large, soft beret—for their administrators and those who have earned a doctoral
degree at that institution.
At MSU Denver, bachelor’s candidates wear colored tassels on the Oxford cap rather than a
hood to represent the academic department from which they earned their degrees.
In addition to his academic regalia, President Stephen M. Jordan wears the University’s chain
of office, a visible symbol of his authority as the institution’s leader.
