The Symbols and Regalia
The Banner Bearers
The visual symbols of Vanderbilt University communicate
our rich history and our vibrant future. The oak tree is a
traditional symbol for education as well as for strength and
longevity. The stylized oak leaf and acorn in the Vanderbilt
logo were inspired by motifs from the Vanderbilt family
coat of arms. The predominant colors in the Vanderbilt coat
of arms are black and gold. The initial “V” has been used
frequently throughout the years as an architectural detail
on campus buildings. The Vanderbilt University wordmark
incorporates two typefaces, graphically linking old and new,
our history and our future.
Each banner, with a field in the appropriate academic color, is
decorated with the Vanderbilt logo. In recognition of Peabody’s
history, a Peabody Centennial Medal in a round walnut frame
is mounted above the banner. Banner bearers this year are:
Jung Min Shin for the College of Arts and Science
Trevor Thompson for the Blair School of Music
Justin Stuart Paul for the School of Engineering
Lia Hannah Sacks for Peabody College
Jamison Lee Williams for the School of Nursing
Benjamin Taylor Rawlins for the Divinity School
The current chair of the Faculty Senate carries the mace, an
ancient sign of authority. It is displayed on the front of the
podium as the symbol of the university’s authority to confer
degrees. Symbolic images that decorate the gilded metal of the
mace include VU monograms, embattled shields, oak leaves
and acorns, irises and magnolias.
Desmond Mariona Dennis for the Law School
Steven Willis Pendleton II for the Owen Graduate School
of Management
Ashlee Scrivner Hurff for the School of Medicine
Brittany Ann Allison for the Graduate School
The chancellor’s insignia of office is a silver and gilt collar that
displays several emblems of the university. The parallel chains of
sterling silver are surmounted by alternating Vanderbilt shields
and modified Founder’s Medals, from which hangs a medallion
with an impression of the seal of the university. The decagonal
silver frame of the medallion symbolizes the ten schools.
The Faculty Marshals
Faculty members serve as marshals who manage the academic
procession. The university marshal plans the procession and
the seating, and instructs the faculty and student marshals.
Faculty marshals are identified by gold cords draped over their
left shoulders. The marshals are:
Trustees of the university wear black gowns distinguished
by gold piping on the velvet bars of the sleeves. The design
of the academic regalia and the colors worn are significant.
Undergraduates—those receiving bachelor’s degrees—wear
tassels signifying the degree they have earned: golden yellow
for science, pink for music, and orange for engineering. By
tradition, the bachelor of arts degree tassels are black.

wrist; doctor—open, pointed sleeves lined with dark blue
satin to signify the Ph.D. Vanderbilt’s custom gown for those
receiving the doctor of philosophy has antique gold front
and back panels and an embroidered “V” on the gown’s yoke.

The Nichols–Chancellor’s Medal is one of the university’s highest honors and is awarded to
individuals who define the 21st century and exemplify the best qualities of the human spirit.
It was established by Vanderbilt Law School graduate Edward C. Nichols, Jr., and his wife,
Janice, in memory of Edward Carmack Nichols and Lucile Hamby Nichols. The medal is
presented at Vanderbilt’s Senior Class Day and also carries a monetary award.
The 2016 Nichols–Chancellor’s Medal is presented to journalist Soledad O’ Brien who has
brought wider exposure to some of the most important issues and stories in the world
through her critically acclaimed documentaries, empowering initiatives, and coverage
of breaking news. Her documentary series Black in America and Latino in America,
which won the distinguished Cine Award, are among CNN’s most successful domestic
and international franchises. Under the aegis of Starfish Media Group, a production and
distribution company she launched in 2013, she uncovers and produces stories that take a
challenging look at the often divisive issues of race, class, wealth, poverty, and opportunity.
O’Brien, who has earned numerous Emmy Awards, is also a correspondent for HBO’s Real
Sports with Bryant Gumbel.

THE FOUNDER’S MEDA L R ECIPIENTS
Leslie Katherine Bruce, from Belton, Missouri, is this year’s
Founder’s Medalist for the College of Arts and Science. She is
graduating with a bachelor of arts.
She also led a Design for America project aimed at decreasing
ambient noise in hospitals to improve patient comfort. She was
a member of Vanderbilt Student Volunteers for Science and says
that “watching middle schoolers get as excited about science
experiments as I am brought me a lot of joy.” In the lab, Julie
spent the past three years researching ways to reduce the number
of bone fractures in at-risk populations by improving risk
assessment tools and identifying determinants of bone toughness.
That experience has inspired her to pursue a career in medical
device research and development.
Leslie believes in “ubuntu,” an African philosophy emphasizing
the interconnectedness of humanity, and she works to foster
conversations among members of diverse groups. As a 2015
Humanity in Action Fellow working with students from U.S.
and European universities, Leslie spoke with Muslim activists
about “the struggle to combat the rise of Islamophobia in
France, while upholding the foundational French principle of
secularism.” She was a White House communications intern,
and at Vanderbilt she served on the Vanderbilt Speakers
Committee, helping to organize the Impact Symposium. After
graduating Phi Beta Kappa with a major in political science and
minors in economics and history, Leslie will serve as assistant
to Judge Sri Srinivasan on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the
D.C. Circuit, an auspicious next step toward her ultimate goal
of studying First Amendment law and becoming a professor of
constitutional law and legal history.
Felicia Hanitio, from Singapore, is this year’s Founder’s Medalist
for Peabody College and is graduating with a bachelor of science
in child development and human & organizational development.
Felicia received a four-year Peabody Dean’s Achievement
scholarship and was elected to Omicron Delta Kappa, the
national leadership honor society. She seeks to nurture diverse,
caring, and inclusive relationships between students through her
roles as a prospective international student recruiter on behalf
of the Admissions office, leader in an Asian American Christian
student fellowship, Running Club practice captain, dancer in the
Asian New Year Festival and Diwali showcases, and Alternative
Spring Break volunteer. A Peabody Scholars summer stipend
allowed Felicia to spend two months with Children for Change
Cambodia, co-piloting a social action program for youth at
risk of human trafficking and economic marginalization. Her
honors thesis in HOD, “A Model to Predict the Emergence of
Community Psychology and Community Development in 91
Countries,” examines links between informal grassroots social
action processes and the emergence of formalized, communitybased research disciplines. After graduation, Felicia will explore
positions with a focus on Southeast Asian development and
future graduate studies in international development.
Amy Victoria Thompson, from Springfield, Tennessee, is this
year’s Founder’s Medalist for the Blair School of Music. She is
graduating with a bachelor of music in harp performance and a
concentration in composition.
A Cornelius Vanderbilt Scholar, Amy is a member of Pi Kappa
Lambda, the national music honor society, and president
of the Blair Composition Forum. She began her studies at

bright, compassionate, authentic people seeking to love God

practicing theology in relation to human suffering and to the
embodied experiences of all people.” She will begin this practice

of questions about the representation of history and the world.”
His research has since investigated “the public and cultural
pertinence of the interpretation of literature in the classroom.
Ultimately, teaching students to consider literature as an integral
part of conversations about sociopolitical theory and practice
provides an argument for the importance and the impact of the
humanities in social and political life.” Andy has been awarded
numerous prizes for his research and teaching including the

Alma Mater
On the city’s western border, reared against the sky,
Proudly stands our Alma Mater as the years roll by.
Forward! ever be thy watchword, conquer and prevail.
Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, Vanderbilt, All Hail!
Cherished by thy sons and daughters, memories sweet shall throng
’Round our hearts, O Alma Mater, as we sing our song.
Forward! ever be thy watchword, conquer and prevail.
Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, Vanderbilt, All Hail!
—Robert F. Vaughan, 1907
