Presentation of the
Marion Luther Brittain Service Award
This award, symbolic of all honors bestowed on students by the
university, is an expression of gratitude for service performed
without expectation of reward or recognition. The award
was established at Emory in 1942 through a bequest from a
distinguished Emory alumnus, former President Brittain of the
Georgia Institute of Technology.
Amanda Gean Garcia-Williams 09PH 15G
Amanda Gean Garcia-Williams, a doctoral candidate in
behavioral sciences and health education in the Rollins School of
Public Health, has been named the 2015 Marion Luther Brittain
Award recipient.
Garcia-Williams earned her master’s degree in public health
at Emory while working at the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC) in the Division of Healthcare Quality
Promotion. Her abiding interests are in violence and injury prevention, public mental health, and health care quality; these avenues
led her to volunteer at Emory and more broadly, not simply to
touch individual lives but also to problem-solve for the welfare of
the larger community.
The focus of her dissertation was suicide prevention among
college students, especially student response to suicidal peers. The
university was fortunate to have her expertise when Emory Cares
4 U was created in 2009 to reduce stigma and prevent suicide
at Emory. Touched personally by a suicide in her family, GarciaWilliams brought compassion and expertise as a QPR gatekeeper
instructor, training students, staff, and faculty how to recognize the
warning signs for suicide and refer an individual for professional
help. The University of Rochester named Garcia-Williams
a scholar with the Virtual Mentoring Network to Enhance
Diversity of the Mental Health Research Workforce.
In addition, Garcia-Williams served as a graduate research
assistant on Project UPLIFT, a program designed to prevent
depression among people with epilepsy. She has donated
community time in a variety of ways, from teaching yoga at a
local recreation center to serving as a science fair judge at an
elementary school. Here at Emory, Garcia-Williams served on the
Honorary Degree Committee of the University Senate; the Dissent,
Protest, and Community Task Force; the Behavioral Sciences and
Health Education Chair Search Committee; the Search Advisory
Committee for the new director of Counseling and Psychological
Services; and the Committee on Class and Labor.
She has coauthored eight peer-reviewed articles and one book
chapter. Garcia-Williams will continue her public health career at
the CDC as a Class of 2015 Epidemic Intelligence Service officer.
Presentation of the
University Scholar/Teacher Award
Chosen by the university president from nominations by the
deans on behalf of the United Methodist Church Board of Higher
Education and Ministry.
Thomas G. Long
Bandy Professor of Preaching
Candler School of Theology and Laney Graduate School
Tom Long, named by Baylor University in 1996 as one of
the twelve “most effective preachers in the English-speaking
world,” joined the faculty of Candler School of Theology and the
Laney Graduate School in 2000. He serves in the Bandy Chair of
Preaching, considered by many the premier professorship in homiletics in North America.
In his fifteen years on the faculty, Long has started important
conversations about the nature of preaching in a world of rapidly
developing technology and global connection. Of his five books,
one—What Shall We Say? Evil, Suffering, and the Crisis of Faith—
was named Book of the Year in 2011 by the Academy of Parish
Clergy, and a second—Preaching from Memory to Hope—was
named by the academy as one of the top ten books for clergy in
2009. Preaching magazine called his Witness of Preaching (2010)
one of the most influential books on preaching in the previous quarter century. He is an associate editor of the Journal for
Preachers and a contributing editor to Christian Century.
Long co-led the university’s strategic initiative on Religions
and the Human Spirit for several years. From 2010 to 2014
he managed the Initiative in Religious Practices and Practical
Theology. This Emory doctoral program, funded by the Lilly
Endowment, trains a new generation of ministers and religious
leaders in blending the study of theology and ethics with the study
of preaching, worship, religious education, and pastoral care. Long
is highly sought as a keynote speaker and as a consultant in the art
of public speaking.
As a teacher, Long mentors and supports junior faculty across
the theological disciplines.
His former graduate students in homiletics serve in tenured
appointments in divinity schools across the country. He teaches
both the introductory preaching course and advanced electives. As
one student has put it, “He is the best preacher I have ever heard,
and he can teach it.”
With this award, Emory recognizes Long as the preeminent figure in his field, singularly dedicated to his students, colleagues, and
the mission of the university.
Presentation of the Thomas Jefferson Award
Awarded each year to a faculty member or administrative
officer for significant service to the university through personal
activities, influence, and leadership.
Bobbi Patterson 94PhD
Professor of Pedagogy and Associate Director of Graduate Studies
Graduate Division of Religion
Emory College of Arts and Sciences
Bobbi Patterson’s manifold contributions to Emory touch
every facet of the university’s mission, but she has had her greatest
impact as a scholar who blends learning and service. In her
thirty-four years at Emory, she has immersed both students and
colleagues in life-changing experiences.
Patterson came to Emory as associate university chaplain in
1981 and later served for a year as interim dean of students in
the Division of Campus Life. She chaired the transformative Task
Force on Security and Responsibility in 1990; served as the first
chair of the Committee on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual Life; founded
the influential Theory-Practice Learning Program; directed the
Emory Scholars Program; founded the Emory as Place Initiative;
was a cofounding chair and member of the Lecture Track Policy
Committee; and served on the President’s Task Force on Dissent,
Protest, and Community in 2011–2012. So many offices at
Emory—the Ethics Center, Sustainability Initiatives, UniversityCommunity Partnerships, and the Emory-Tibet Partnership—
would not be what they are without her influence.
Her innovative approaches to pedagogy have long combined
expertise from contemplative practices, conflict resolution, and
environmental sustainability. Given the breadth of Patterson’s
interests, it is fitting that she has lent her administrative gifts to the
Graduate Division of Religion, an interdisciplinary program that
engages a broad range of scholarly interests.
Patterson earned a PhD from the Laney Graduate School in
1994. In frequent demand as a speaker at academic conferences
and retreats, she is also an ordained priest in the Episcopal Church.
She has authored more than twenty-five articles and an array of
book chapters and reviews, and she has a book manuscript under
consideration by Shambala Press, Building a Fire for Service:
Contemplative and Resilience Approaches.
In addition to receiving the Award for Excellence in Teaching
from the American Academy of Religion in 2011, she earned the
Emory Williams Award for Distinguished Teaching in 2014.

Honorary Degrees
Shirley Franklin
Community Leader and Former Atlanta Mayor
Doctor of Laws, honoris causa
Shirley Franklin was elected the first African American
female mayor of a major Southern city in 2001. She previously
had served on the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games
and as Atlanta’s commissioner of cultural affairs and, later, city
manager. During her eight years as mayor, Franklin collaborated
with many local and regional leaders in addressing the challenges
of metro-regional planning, economic development, and infrastructure replacement. She earned acclaim for advocating ethics
reform, overhauling municipal government financial and management operations, and adopting multiple-year budget practices. Her
administration launched the Atlanta BeltLine initiative, planned and
executed improvements to the city’s airport and water infrastructure, developed successful business and public sector partnerships
and alliances, and created the Atlanta Regional Commission on
Homelessness. Mayor Franklin led the city in acquiring the papers
of Martin Luther King Jr. now housed at Morehouse College.
Franklin is currently the chair of the National Center for Civil
and Human Rights and serves as chair and chief executive officer
of Purpose Built Communities. She is president of Clarke-Franklin
and Associates, and cochair of the United Way of Greater Atlanta’s
Regional Commission on Homelessness. Her distinguished community leadership includes service on the boards of United Way of
Greater Atlanta, Delta Air Lines, Mueller Water Products, and the
Volcker Alliance.
Franklin earned a bachelor of arts degree in sociology from
Howard University and a master of arts degree in sociology from
the University of Pennsylvania. She is currently the Barbara Jordan
Visiting Professor of Ethics and Political Values at the Lyndon
Baines Johnson School of Public Affairs at the University of Texas
at Austin.
A contributor to several books, Franklin is in frequent demand as
a speaker and has been featured in numerous publications. In 2005,
Time magazine named her one of the top five mayors in the country, and US News & World Report listed her as one of “America’s
Best Leaders.” She is a recipient of the 2005 John F. Kennedy
Profile in Courage Award.
Mayor Franklin will be presented by the dean of Emory School
of Law, Robert Schapiro.
Billy E. Frye 54G 56PhD
Alumnus, Educator, and Renowned Administrator
Doctor of Letters, honoris causa
Among Billy E. Frye’s highest priorities during his tenure
as Emory’s first provost, and later chancellor, was maintaining a
sense of community in the face of the university’s rapid physical
and programmatic expansion. An Emory alumnus, Frye returned
to Emory in 1986 to become dean of the graduate school and vice
president for research, and he was named provost and vice president
for academic affairs two years later. He devoted countless hours
over several years to conversations with stakeholders in the Emory
community, setting goals and guidelines for Emory to know itself
and prepare for its future. The document that resulted, Choices and
Responsibility (1994), served as a roadmap for a critical time in
Emory’s history.
During the 1980s and 1990s, an era of retrenchment in research
libraries across the country, Frye became recognized as a national
spokesperson and vital leader in the preparation for a digital future.
He also helped bring to public attention the imminent disintegration
of millions of books printed on paper made mostly from wood pulp,
and the need for libraries to address these losses through digitization.
His leadership was recognized by the naming of the Frye Institute
in his honor, a joint ten-year program sponsored by Emory and
the Washington, D.C.–based Council on Library and Information
Resources to train academic administrators in the integration of
libraries and information technology.
Frye’s stellar ability as an administrator was complemented by
a reputation for rock-like character and integrity, which earned
him the trust and confidence of those with whom he worked. His
servant-leadership was marked by strength, vision, and grace.
In 1997 Frye received Emory’s Thomas Jefferson Award for significant service to Emory through personal activities, influence, and
leadership. Emory also awarded Frye the Emory Medal and recognized him as one of its 175 Makers of History during the 175th
anniversary celebration in 2011. In 1991 he received an honorary
degree from the University of Michigan, where he had served for
twenty-five years, according to the citation, with “great distinction”
and “national stature” as a biology professor, graduate school dean,
and provost.
Dr. Frye will be presented by the dean of the Laney Graduate
School, Lisa Tedesco.
R. Randall Rollins
Business Leader and Philanthropist
Doctor of Humane Letters, honoris causa
R. Randall Rollins, a generous and generative
philanthropist in his own right, is a scion of the renowned Rollins
family, whose benefactions to Emory for more than four decades
have had a transformative impact on the university. The family’s
interest in Emory began with its patriarch, O. Wayne Rollins,
a self-made business leader and innovator, who with his wife,
Grace Rollins, founded a center for ministry in Candler School
of Theology and helped to establish the Rollins School of Public
Health. Following Wayne’s death, in 1991, his sons, Randall and
Gary, have continued to build the Rollins companies and provide
leadership and support to Emory.
Since 1991, Randall Rollins has served as chair of the board
of Rollins, a premier global consumer and commercial services
company. Through its wholly owned subsidiaries, including Orkin,
the company provides pest control and protection services to more
than two million customers on five continents. Randall Rollins is
also chair of the board of Marine Products Corporation and RPC,
an oil and gas services company that provides a broad range of specialized oilfield services and equipment to the industry. He has been
a director of Dover Motorsports since 1996 and a director of Dover
Downs Gaming & Entertainment since 2002. He was a director of
SunTrust Bank from 1995 to 2004.
Created in 1967, the O. Wayne Rollins Foundation continues
the mission of four generations of the Rollins family to support
medical research and public health programs at colleges and
universities. In addition to the Rollins School of Public Health,
Randall Rollins’s philanthropy at Emory has included gifts to the
Robert W. Woodruff Health Sciences Center, Emory School of
Medicine, the Winship Cancer Institute, Yerkes National Primate
Research Center, and Candler School of Theology. He and his
brother, Gary, are Emory’s most generous living donors. Randall
also has given time and service at the highest levels, as a member of
the Emory University Board of Trustees (1988–2001), the Woodruff
Health Sciences Center Board (1988–2001; vice chair 1990–2001),
the Finance Committee (1988–1994), and the Executive Committee
(1991–1994), becoming emeritus trustee in 2001. His commitment
to public health has led to tremendous advancements in research,
the recruitment of outstanding faculty leaders, and recognition of
the Rollins School in just a quarter of a century of existence as one
of the world’s most successful schools of public health.
Mr. Rollins will be presented by the dean of the Rollins School of
Public Health, James Curran.
Salman Rushdie
Author, Professor, and Human Rights Advocate
Doctor of Letters, honoris causa
A literary master of towering achievement, Salman Rushdie
is also a powerful symbol of free expression and of the imperative
to protect human rights. As a University Distinguished Professor at
Emory, he has formed deep connections with the university while
also attracting recognition to the broader eminence of Emory’s
creative writing program and its robust collection of papers of distinguished authors and poets.
Knighted in 2007 by Queen Elizabeth II for his service to literature, Sir Salman is the author of the novels Grimus, Shame, The
Satanic Verses, Haroun and the Sea of Stories, and Luka and the
Fire of Life, among others. His second novel, Midnight’s Children,
was awarded the 1981 Booker Prize (called the Man Booker Prize
since 2002), and in both 1993 and 2008 (the twenty-fifth and fortieth anniversaries of the prize’s inception) was proclaimed by judges
to be the best-ever winner of the prize. He has also published a
book of stories and three works of nonfiction. He is the coeditor of Mirrorwork, an anthology of contemporary Indian writing,
and of the 2008 Best American Short Stories anthology. His books
have been translated into more than forty languages, and a film
of Midnight’s Children, directed by Deepa Mehta, was released in
2012. His most recent book is the autobiographical Joseph Anton:
A Memoir, which draws on his papers and computer files housed in
Emory’s Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library.
A fellow of the British Royal Society of Literature, Rushdie has
received nearly every literary award in the English-speaking world,
including the Whitbread Prize for Best Novel, the Writers Guild
Award, the James Tait Black Prize, the European Union’s Aristeion
Prize for Literature, the London International Writers Award, the
James Joyce Award of University College Dublin, the Carl Sandburg
Prize of the Chicago Public Library, and a US National Arts Award.
In addition to his British knighthood, he holds the rank of commandeur in the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres, France’s highest artistic honor. In 2008, he was inducted as a member of the American
Academy of Arts and Letters.
Sir Salman will be presented by the dean of Emory College of
Arts and Sciences, Robin Forman.

A Commentary on Commencement
Emory College of Arts and Sciences originated from
a concern for higher education in a Christian setting on the part
of the Georgia Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
Chartered in 1836 in Oxford, Georgia, the college was named
after John Emory (1789–1835), bishop of the Methodist Episcopal
Church. In 1964 the college at Oxford was named Oxford College
of Emory University.
Emory College became Emory University by virtue of a charter
granted by the Superior Court of DeKalb County on January 25,
1915. Although classes on the Atlanta campus were begun in the
schools of law and theology as early as 1916, the college did not
move to Atlanta until 1919. The university now includes nine
schools, most tracing their origins to years before the chartering of
the university itself. These schools are Emory College and Oxford
College (1836), the School of Medicine (1854), Nell Hodgson
Woodruff School of Nursing (1905), Candler School of Theology
(1914), the School of Law (1916), Roberto C. Goizueta Business
School (1919), the James T. Laney School of Graduate Studies
(1919), and Rollins School of Public Health (1990).
The intent of the founders is perpetuated by the university’s
vision statement: A destination university internationally
recognized as an inquiry-driven, ethically engaged, and diverse
community, whose members work collaboratively for positive
transformation in the world through courageous leadership in
teaching, research, scholarship, health care, and social action.
A Short History on Commencement at Emory
This is Emory’s 170th commencement. The exercises witnessed
today represent an imposition of medieval academic tradition on
an institution that had its roots in the nineteenth-century frontier.
The first Emory commencement was held in 1840, four years after
Emory College had been chartered and two years after the college’s
first classes. That first ceremony, however, was without graduating
students, as there were no graduates until the following year. Then,
as now, sermons and addresses had a central focus in the exercises,
though rarely have these addresses been so crucial as in 1849,
when all fifteen members of the graduating class were assigned
speaking places and spoke for as long as half an hour each.
Early commencement audiences sat for up to four hours in the
midsummer heat to listen to the numerous student and faculty
orations on such topics as “Our Government Unfavorable to
High Attainment in Literature,” “Social Equality,” and “Modern
Refinements.” These addresses in the early days were in English,
contrary to the practice at many other institutions. As President A.
B. Longstreet argued in 1842, speeches in Latin and Greek were
“worthy of the name pedantry, and nothing more.” In spite of this
advice, several later generations of students instructed their audiences in the ancient tongues.
Academic Dress and Customs
Academic dress goes back to the founding of European universities, which were the products of the intellectual revival of the
twelfth century. All medieval students were clerks and consequently wore the dress of clergy. This is the academic costume we wear
today, with certain changes introduced in the sixteenth century by
Protestant reformers. The oldest articles of academic wear were
the robe, over which was worn the habit, usually a kind of tunic
with short, wide sleeves. The medieval hood was lined with fur or
inexpensive skins and could be gathered around the neck or pulled
up on the head as a turban. It is uncertain when different colors
became associated with different degrees.
There were four kinds of caps: the round cap, reserved for
doctoral dignity; the tena, a round cap with strings tied under the
chin, worn by jurists; the square cap; and the Tudor bonnet. At
Oxford University in 1565 the square cap became the norm, but
the faculties that had become laicized adopted the Tudor bonnet
that is still worn by doctoral candidates today. The basic design
of all academic costume in the United States was first established
in 1895 and was first used at Emory by the Class of 1902. The
bachelor’s gown features an embroidered Emory University seal in
gold thread and has long, pointed, open sleeves. The master’s gown
has longer sleeves, which are closed at the bottom with openings
about midway for the hands. Beginning in 2014, the bachelor’s and
master’s gowns are made of fabric spun from molten plastic pellets from recycled water bottles. An average of twenty-three postconsumer plastic bottles are used to create each gown, furthering
Emory’s commitment to sustainability initiatives. The doctor’s
gown has full-length lapels of velvet and bell-shaped sleeves with
three horizontal velvet bars. Tassels for bachelor’s and master’s
caps are black; tassels of gold thread may be worn by doctors.
Gowns and caps are usually black, although Emory and some
other schools have specified that their doctors may wear gowns of
distinctive colors. Yale’s deep blue doctoral gown, Harvard’s crimson, Columbia’s dark blue, and Emory’s blue and gold are a few
that may be seen in the procession.
The hood varies for the respective degrees, the doctor’s
hood being longer and fuller than the master’s. The field of study
can be determined from the velvet facing on the hood according
to the following color scheme: white, the arts; gold-yellow, science;
purple, law; apricot, nursing; green, medicine; teal, physical
therapy; scarlet, theology; salmon, public health; drab, business;
and dark blue, doctors of philosophy. The hood is lined with
silk in the colors of the degree-granting institution. For Emory
graduates the lining is blue with a chevron of gold.
The president of Emory University wears a badge of office
given to the university in 1965 by the Emory chapter, Gamma
of Georgia, of Phi Beta Kappa. Designed by Eric Clements of
Birmingham, England, and executed by the Worshipful Company
of Goldsmiths in London, the solid gold badge is an open teardrop
enclosing the raised seal of the university and is suspended on a
gold chain.
A Commentary on Commencement
The chief marshal and deputy marshals lead the academic
procession. The faculty marshals and the secretary of the university
jointly manage the forming of the procession, the seating of
commencement participants, and the planning of other aspects of
commencement exercises. Marshals are identified by their unique
blue tunics, which are sleeveless and lined with gold.
The Quadrangle stage with blue canopy was named the
University Marshals’ Stage in honor of the dedication and service
provided by Emory’s chief marshals throughout history.
The university mace is carried in the procession by the immediate past president of the Student Government Association.
Academically the mace is the symbol of a university as a corporate
body of scholars possessing its own jurisdiction and its own legally
constituted authority. Traditionally the mace is borne in procession
immediately before the chief officer of a university and is placed
before him or her during formal academic ceremonies.
The mace of Emory University, a gift from D.V.S., an Emory
College senior honor society, was designed by Eric Clements
and executed in silver and gold by the Worshipful Company of
Goldsmiths. In the teardrop at the apex of the mace, against a
background of oxidized silver, is a freestanding representation in
gold of a human skeleton. This is Dooley, the “spirit” of Emory,
who traditionally “rises” once each spring and for a week rules
campus. Immediately below the skeleton, in an open teardrop, is
a gold sphere divided (by stippling) into eight segments. Topping
the sphere is a simple cross, symbolizing the relationship of Emory
University to the Methodist church. The seal of the university is
sculptured in gold within the circular base.
Before each school in the procession, the school’s student marshal carries its gonfalon, a banner in the color associated with the
respective school’s degree: medicine, green; public health, salmon;
nursing, apricot; theology, scarlet; law, purple; and business, drab.
The gonfalon of the graduate school is gold representing Emory’s
gold, and the gonfalons of Emory College and Oxford College
represent Emory’s blue.
Emory Alumni Legacy Medallion
Graduating students who have a parent, grandparent, and/or
sibling who is also an Emory graduate are wearing specially
commissioned medallions hanging from blue and gold ribbons.
The medallions are expressions of the university’s gratitude to
those families who have chosen to continue the Emory education
tradition throughout the generations.
The Commencement Setting
Spectators on the Quadrangle are seated facing the former Pitts
Theology Library, one of the two oldest buildings on the Atlanta
campus. Designed by the distinguished Pittsburgh architect
Henry Hornbostel (1867–1961), the Old Theology Building was
the original theology building in 1916. It was renovated in 1975
by architect Paul Rudolph to house the expanded library collection
of Candler School of Theology.
Directly behind the spectators are Carlos Hall, the other original
campus building, and the expanded Michael C. Carlos Museum.
Formerly home to the School of Law, Carlos Hall was renovated
in 1986 according to a design by Michael Graves to house the
museum and the Department of Art History. The museum is
named for the philanthropist who donated most of the cost of
the facility. It was designed to maintain the classic symmetry and
proportion of the surrounding buildings, which are listed on the
National Register of Historic Places.
Bowden Hall, east of the museum, was constructed in 1951
in the same style as the original campus buildings. Originally
the History Building, it was renamed in 1991 in honor of the
late Henry L. Bowden, former chair of the Board of Trustees of
Emory University. To the southeast of Bowden Hall is the Center
for Library and Information Resources. The center joins the tall,
red-tile-crowned Robert W. Woodruff Library and is linked to
the Asa Griggs Candler Memorial Library at the east end of the
Quadrangle. Candler Library was dedicated in 1926 in honor of
the man who donated the land for the campus and who provided
the university with strong leadership in its early years.
Next to the Old Theology Building is the Loula Walker and Ely
Reeves Callaway Sr. Memorial Center. Thanks to a generous gift
from alumnus Ely R. Callaway Jr. in honor of his parents, this center joins the former Humanities Building with the original Physics
Building, which was constructed in 1919.
At the west end of the Quadrangle is the Administration
Building (1955), a gift of Charles Howard Candler. Like his
father, Asa, Charles chaired the Board of Trustees for many years.
Between the Administration Building and the former Pitts Library
sits the more modern White Hall, the main classroom building of Emory College. Above the trees on the north side of the
Quadrangle are the curved red roof of the William R. Cannon
Chapel—designed by Paul Rudolph and dedicated in 1981—and
the towers of Emory University Hospital to the east.
It may seem like a time warp. Four years after Emory celebrated its 175th anniversary in 2011, the university
this year marks its centennial. The explanation is simple. One hundred years have passed since Emory acquired
a new charter as a university and established a new campus, in Atlanta. Since 1915 Emory and Atlanta
have grown together and helped to shape each other in ways unimaginable a century ago. During 2015 the
university will commemorate the transformation that began in 1915, as a small college began its progress
toward becoming a major liberal arts research university.
