Dr. David Viar
Superintendent/President Glendale Alma Mater Enshrined among Verdugo’s hills upon the broad highway
Our Alma Mater rests secure and rules our hearts always
The towering oak and olive encircle her with green
And from the heights of Rasmarsad the distant sea is seen
We love her trails of yellow, her roofs of brightest red
The sunshine’s always on her brow, the sky is blue o’erhead
And though our feet may wander, our thoughts stray further still
Our hearts will e’er return to her, our college on the hill

Distinguished Faculty Award
With the Distinguished Faculty Award (DFA), the Academic Senate recognizes excellence in a professor’s area of
expertise including teaching, counseling, and work with students. It also considers good college “citizenship,” such as
contributions to college life outside the classroom or primary service area as secondary criteria. Candidates for the DFA
must have been at the college for at least ten years. The Senate has tried to recognize a variety of people in a variety of
areas and for a variety of efforts. The recipient list includes great lecturers, people who have reached out to their students
in exceptional ways, and people who have developed tremendous programs. The DFA was first conferred in 1987.
William L. Parker Award
The award, in honor of William L. Parker, a philosophy professor to whom it was first bestowed, is awarded by the
Academic Senate based on long service to GCC. Criteria include multiple areas such as academic, professional and
community service; recognition by faculty, staff, students and administration; and that the recipient’s contributions
will have a lasting impact on the institution. The award was first presented in 1993.
Exceptional Adjunct Award
The Exceptional Adjunct Faculty Award (EAFA) is given for distinguished contributions to Glendale Community
College in the recipient’s discipline, or for contributions and accomplishments in other professional areas. The EAFA
recipient serves as a role model for the rest of the adjunct faculty. The award was first conferred in 2006.
The Graduation Pledge of Social and Environmental Responsibility
“I pledge to explore and take into account the social and environmental consequences of any job
I consider and will try to improve these aspects of any organization for which I work.”
Since 1987, colleges and universities around the world have participated in the Graduation Pledge Alliance to
instill in their students an ethic of social and environmental responsibility. A project of the Bentley University
Alliance for Ethics and Social Responsibility, the Graduation Pledge is currently being practiced at nearly 150
higher education institutions.
Initiated at Glendale Community College by the Center for Student Involvement and adopted through the
shared governance process in fall 2009, the Graduation Pledge provides GCC graduates with a symbolic, lifelong
reminder of their commitment to practicing and promoting social and environmental consciousness. Taking the
Pledge is voluntary. Students who make the commitment can determine for themselves what they consider to be
socially and environmentally responsible.
For more information please visit the Graduation Pledge Alliance at www.graduationpledge.org.

AKRAM ABDULRAHMAN
STUDENT COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER
2015-2016 GCC MAN OF DISTINCTION
Akram Abdulrahman was born and raised in Stockholm, Sweden. While
he was growing up his parents always encouraged him to focus on his
education, which he did while studying at the International English
School of Sodermalm. In addition to his academic pursuits, Akram was
an avid soccer player, did volunteer work in his religious community,
and actively supported numerous political and human rights causes.
His experiences in Sweden gave him a dream of pursuing a college
education in the United States. His dream came true in 2013 when
he moved to Glendale and enrolled at Glendale Community College.
After moving to California, Akram quickly got involved in the
community and at GCC. He became treasurer of SALMAH, an
organization that assists homeless shelters with their daily operations. At the college Akram has been a mentor
for the Shadow Days program and SPARK (Students Providing Assistance, Resources, and Knowledge); is an
active member of Alpha Gamma Sigma (AGS); and serves as an executive officer of the International Student
Association, Vice President of Black Scholars, and Senator of Finance for the Associated Students of Glendale
Community College (ASGCC).
Akram credits his experience and involvement at GCC for making him a much stronger student and a more
compassionate person. After graduation Akram will be transferring to San Francisco State University where he
will pursue a bachelor’s degree in environmental studies. He plans to use his experiences at both institutions to
help him build a career that will allow him to work on humanitarian and environmental causes.

THE ACADEMIC PROCESSION
By Gary Parker, Ph. D.
One of the most colorful parts of the commencement exercise is the academic procession, the opening part of the
time-honored and traditional ceremonies. The processional includes all of the participants of the exercises, the graduating class,
faculty, Board of Trustees, and participating guests.
The graduating class wears maroon gowns. The tassel of the cap is worn on the right and changed to the left immediately
after receiving the associate degree. Gold tassels are worn by students who are receiving their Associate degrees while students
who are being awarded their Certificates of Achievement wear maroon tassels.
The college’s faculty, which includes its instructors, counselors, and administrative staff, along with the trustees and
the program guests, wear gowns indicative of their academic rank. This part of the processional is indeed one of the most aweinspiring of all collegiate ceremonies.
The heritage of the cap and gown, with the colorful spectacle of the academic array, dates back to the twelfth century
and the establishment of the first universities in Europe. Although there have been many changes in design and color, each
individual gown with its rank is symbolic of achievement in a special field.
The Continental System, still used by England and the rest of Europe, allows a distinctive design and color for each
college and university. In the United States, however, a uniform intercollegiate Academic code has been adopted. Nevertheless,
there is a growing trend among major universities to follow the European tradition and have unique gowns which incorporate
the colors of the university, such as crimson gowns from Harvard, light blue gowns from Yale, and dark blue gowns trimmed
with gold from the University of California. The code is a simple one, regulating the colors and materials to be used. Knowledge
of a few of these rules permits the viewer to understand the costume of any graduate of an American educational institution and
know at once the wearer’s degree, the field in which it was earned and possibly the college from which the degree was received.
Faculty gowns are divided into three groups, dependent upon the highest college degree earned by the wearer. The
bachelor’s gown is made of a black worsted material with long, pointed sleeves. The master’s gown is either of black silk or wool
and a has a long closed sleeve with an arc of a circle appearing near the bottom and a slit, at elbow length, for the arm. The
doctoral gown is usually black silk with full, round, open sleeves with velvet rings. Some universities have their own doctoral
gowns which correspond to the colors of the school.
The traditional black mortarboard-style cap is worn for all degrees, the only difference being the tassel. For bachelor’s
and master’s, the tassel is usually black, but occasionally it is the color of the velvet on the hood. The doctoral tassel is gold.
The academic costume is set off by the most distinctive of all insignia, the hood. The hood is made of a black material
to match the gown and varies in length according to the degree: bachelor, three feet; master, three and one-half feet; and
doctorate, four feet. Each hood has a velvet edge of varying widths according to the degree; two inches, three inches, and five
inches respectively. The edging is carried around to the front of the neck to form a neck band. The color of this velvet trim
indicates the field or department of learning in which the degree was earned. All hoods have silk lining of the official color or
colors of the college or university conferring the degree.
Following is a partial list of colors designated to represent the various areas of learning:
Arts and Letter………………………White
Medicine……………………….Green
Business Administration………….…..Drab
Nursing…………………...…..Apricot
Education……………………….Light Blue
Philosophy…………………Dark Blue
Engineering…………………………Orange
Physical Education……….Sage Green
Fine Art……………………………..Brown
Science……………….…Gold-Yellow
Law………………………………….Purple
Graduates who have achieved a 3.50 cumulative grade point average, and those who have earned permanent
membership in the Alpha Gamma Sigma Honor Society, are identified by a gold stole.
To qualify for permanent membership in the Alpha Gamma Sigma Honor Society, a student must have either
completed 60 units with a 3.50 grade-point average and one semester as a member of AGS or completed 60 units with 3.25
grade-point average and two semesters as a member of AGS.
White stoles are worn by students in the Nursing program who are recognized for completing the LVN or RN
requirements.
