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.
Alexander Stephen Kappus 10C
For four years, Alex Kappus has been a scholar, an
innovator, a compassionate contributor, and a stalwart advocate
for those who live on the fringes of our society. As president of
the Student Government Association, he sought to move that
organization from one that only oversees and governs to one
that leads by example in giving back to communities in need
around the city and around the country. His work in the stillravaged wards of New Orleans during spring break is a testament to the commitment he has to what Scripture calls, “the
least of these.”
As founder of the student organization the Synergy
Movement, Kappus rightly observed how technology often
inhibits face-to-face communication and a lack of warmth in
our world, so he sought to remedy that on our campus by forming an organization that would make it possible for us to grow
closer as a university community.
With activities involving faculty and staff, their families,
and also Emory students, Kappus and the members of Synergy
went about campus committing “random acts of kindness” and
“intentional acts of engagement” sponsoring community carnivals, festivals, and other programs to bring about his vision of
the “small town” community feeling he knew could be Emory.
Kappus is a Humanitarian Award recipient, president of
the Student Government Association, founder of the Synergy
Movement at Emory, a member of 100 Community Builders,
an Omicron Delta Kappa honoree, and now a Brittain Award
winner. All of these recognitions define him and his vision for
Emory University—a vision of inclusiveness, compassion, excellence, and commitment.
We are supremely proud to honor Alexander Stephen Kappus
with the 2010 Marion Luther Brittain Award for exemplary service to the Emory University community.
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.
E. Brooks Holifield
Charles Howard Candler Professor of American
Church History
Professor E. Brooks Holifield is a consummate scholar,
admired by his colleagues at Candler School of Theology and
in the broader academic community for embodying the highest scholarly standards. He earned a BA from Hendrix College,
a BD from Yale Divinity School, and an MA and PhD from
Yale University. He has written books on seventeenth-century
Puritanism, the antebellum South, religion and psychology in
America, health and medicine in the Methodist traditions, and
the cultural history of early colonial America. His research
focuses on patterns of change in American religious history.
His publications include seven single-author books. God’s
Ambassadors: A History of the Christian Clergy in America
(2007) was selected as the Book of the Year by the American
Academy of Parish Clergy. Theology in America: Christian
Thought from the Age of the Puritans to the Civil War (2003)
received the Albert C. Outler Prize of the American Society
of Church History, was chosen as an Outstanding Book by
University Press Books for Public and Secondary School
Libraries, and was selected by Choice as an Outstanding
Academic Title. His other books include Era of Persuasion:
American Thought and Culture, 1521–1680 (1989), Health
and Medicine in the Methodist Tradition (1986), A History of
Pastoral Care in America (1983), The Gentlemen Theologians
(1978), and The Covenant Sealed (1974).
Professor Holifield’s scholarship has earned him numerous
academic awards and fellowships, including three National
Endowment for the Humanities grants and two of the highest grants within theological education (a Louisville Institute
Fellowship and a Henry Luce Fellowship). His academic guild
recognized his contributions by electing him president of the
American Society of Church History in 2002. His service at
Emory has included serving as chair of many faculty searches,
including for two theology deans and chair of the Graduate
Division of Religion. He has provided important leadership in
curriculum review and revision at Candler. In the wider academy, he has served on the editorial board of journals and book
series and was a member of the Pulpit and Pew Project of the
Lilly Endowment from 2001 to 2005.
When students describe Professor Holifield’s teaching, they
regularly use the words “brilliant” and “passionate.” His colleagues also recognize him as a master teacher who is generous
in mentoring doctoral students and junior faculty. Professor
E. Brooks Holifield embodies the best of the values of a theological and university educator.
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.
Rudolph P. Byrd
Goodrich C. White Professor of American Studies in the
Graduate Institute of the Liberal Arts and the Department of
African American Studies
Educated at Lewis & Clark College (BA) and Yale
University (MA, MPhil, PhD), Rudolph P. Byrd joined the faculty of Emory University in 1991 as director of the Program
(now Department) of African American Studies. Professor Byrd
is the founding director of the James Weldon Johnson Institute
for Advanced Interdisciplinary Studies at Emory University,
which fosters new scholarship, teaching, and public dialogue
focused upon the origins, evolution, and legacy of the modern
civil rights movement from 1905 to the present. With his vision,
energy, dedication to teaching and scholarship, and commitment to excellence, he has built on the strong foundation in the
African American studies program. During his tenure, Professor
Byrd has helped bring to Emory outstanding faculty, obtained
grants from the National Endowment for the Arts and the
Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, organized stimulating symposia, and established academic collaborations with other institutions in Atlanta and beyond. Professor Byrd has been a leading
builder of Emory’s research library collections, the acquisition of
the Alice Walker Archive providing a notable example.
Professor Byrd is the author and editor of eight books including: I Call Myself an Artist: Writings by and about Charles
Johnson ed. (1999); Charles Johnson’s Novels: Writing the
American Palimpsest (2005); and The Essential Writings of

Professor Byrd is the coeditor with Beverly Guy-Sheftall
of Traps: African American Men on Gender and Sexuality
(2001). He is the coeditor of I Am Your Sister: Collected and
Unpublished Writings of Audre Lorde (2009). His workin-progress includes serving as an editor of the forthcoming
Norton Anthology of African American Poetry and as coeditor
of the forthcoming Norton Edition of Cane, both with Henry
Louis Gates Jr. Professor Byrd is also writing a biography of
Ernest J. Gaines and a study of the early fiction of Alice Walker.
His articles, reviews, and editorials have been widely published. Professor Byrd’s several awards and fellowships include
the Andrew W. Mellon Fellowship at Harvard University, the
Dorothy Danforth Compton Fellowship at Yale University, and
Visiting Scholar at Boston University.
An engaged scholar committed to service and scholarship,
Professor Byrd is a consultant to the United Negro College
Fund/Andrew W. Mellon Programs. He is also a member of the
National Advisory Board for the Morehouse College Dr. Martin
Luther King Jr. Collection. Professor Byrd is the founding
cochair of the Alice Walker Literary Society.
Since he arrived at Emory, Byrd has been dedicated to the
University and its growth in academic achievement and as a
caring community. Through his writing, teaching, mentoring,
speaking, community engagement, and generosity of spirit,
Professor Rudolph Byrd embodies the essence of the Thomas
Jefferson Award and the highest values of university citizenship.

Honorary Degrees
Governor of California
Doctor of Laws, honoris causa
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is serving his
second term as governor of California after being first elected in
the state’s historic 2003 recall election. Among his accomplishments in his first six years in office is the passage of the nationleading Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006, a bipartisan
agreement to combat global warming by reducing California’s
greenhouse gas emissions. Schwarzenegger also has worked to
make major investments in improving California’s aging infrastructure through his Strategic Growth Plan, helping to reduce
traffic congestion and improve air quality. He established the
Hydrogen Highway and Million Solar Roofs Plan, and under
his leadership, California recently passed the Safe, Clean, and
Reliable Drinking Water Supply Act of 2010.
The world-famous athlete and actor was born in Austria in
1947 and at age twenty became the youngest person ever to win
the Mr. Universe title. He came to America shortly afterward,
winning an unprecedented twelve more world bodybuilding
titles. He earned a degree from the University of Wisconsin and
became a U.S. citizen in 1983. Three years later he married
broadcast journalist Maria Shriver.
Schwarzenegger has been an advocate for physical education
and after-school programs, and as governor, he has worked to
increase funding for such programs. In 1990, former President
George H. W. Bush appointed Schwarzenegger chair of the
President’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports. He also
served as chair of the California Governor’s Council on Physical
Fitness and Sports under Governor Pete Wilson. Schwarzenegger
and his wife have remained closely involved in Special Olympics,
an organization founded by Shriver’s mother, Eunice Kennedy
Shriver. Emory has had a long commitment to the Georgia
Special Olympics, which the University has hosted annually
on its campus for more than twenty years.
Schwarzenegger’s accomplishments have earned him
honors from a variety of organizations, including the Simon
Wiesenthal Center’s National Leadership Award for his support of the organization’s Holocaust studies. Schwarzenegger
was the only actor to be in both categories of the American
Film Institute’s Hundred Years of Heroes and Villains. In 2002,
Schwarzenegger received the Muhammad Ali Humanitarian
Award. Schwarzenegger currently holds honorary doctorates
from the University of Southern California and his alma mater,
the University of Wisconsin-Superior, among others.
Mr. Schwarzenegger will be presented by Dean of the School of
Law David F. Partlett.

Medicine Thomas J. Lawley.
Melissa Fay Greene
Author and Journalist
Doctor of Letters, honoris causa
Joseph Echols Lowery
United Methodist Minister and Civil Rights Leader
Doctor of Divinity, honoris causa
Melissa Fay Greene is an award-winning author of four
books of nonfiction. A two-time National Book Award finalist,
she is a frequent contributor to the New York Times Magazine,
the New Yorker, the Atlantic, Newsweek, and other periodicals.
Greene was a witness to the events described in Praying for
Sheetrock (1991), the story of a courthouse gang on the rural
coast of Georgia and the black community that tried to dislodge it. A finalist for the National Book Award and the
National Book Critics Circle Award, winner of the Robert F.
Kennedy Book Award and the Chicago Tribune Heartland
Prize, Sheetrock was named to the list of one hundred works
of print, radio, television, and photography cited as the best
American journalism of the twentieth century and included in
Entertainment Weekly’s special New Classics edition naming the
100 Best Books of the Last 25 Years.
The Temple Bombing (1996), describes the attack on an
Atlanta synagogue during the massive white resistance to desegregation in the 1950s. Also a National Book Award Finalist,
it won the Southern Book Critics Circle Award, the Georgia
Author of the Year Award, and the ACLU National Civil
Liberties Award.
Last Man Out (2002), tells the story of the 1958 Springhill,
Nova Scotia, mine disaster, an Afro-Canadian hero, and an
unlikely trip to the Georgia coast by the survivors—during
which the hero was segregated from the rest of the survivors. It
was a New York Times Notable Book and was named one of
the best books of the year by half a dozen periodicals.
Her latest book, There Is No Me Without You (Bloomsbury,
2006) is the story of a middle-class Ethiopian widow, who,
out of the multiple tragedies in her own life, opens her door to
AIDS-orphaned children. It won Elle Magazine’s Elle’s Lettres
Readers Prize for Nonfiction and has been named a Best Book
of 2006 by Publishers Weekly, Entertainment Weekly, the
Christian Science Monitor, the Chicago Tribune, the Atlanta
Journal-Constitution, the Columbus Dispatch, the Anchorage
Press, and the Oregonian. It has been optioned by HBO for a
miniseries.
A 1975 graduate of Oberlin College, Melissa Fay Greene is a
Georgia native and Atlanta resident.
Born in Huntsville, Alabama, on October 6, 1921, the
Reverend Doctor Joseph Echols Lowery has been one of the
nation’s strongest and most consistent advocates for racial
justice, human rights, and world peace. In August 2009, he
received the nation’s highest civilian award, the Presidential
Medal of Freedom from President Barack Obama. On January
20, 2009, he delivered the benediction at the inauguration
of President Obama as the forty-fourth president of the
United States.
When Ebony Magazine named him one of the nation’s fifteen greatest black preachers, they described him as “the consummate voice of biblical social relevancy, a focused prophetic
voice, speaking truth to power.” In 1997, the NAACP presented him with one of its highest awards and called him the dean
of the civil rights movement. Other organizations have honored
him for his effective leadership in the movement to empower
African Americans as equal shareholders in American life,
including the National Conference of Black Mayors; Boston
University, with its initial Martin Luther King Jr. Award;
Wayne University, with its initial Walter Reuther Humanitarian
Award; the Progressive National Baptist Convention; the
National Urban League; the United Auto Workers; and the
Southern Regional Council.
Lowery’s life of advocacy has spanned more than a half
century, beginning when he headed the Alabama Civic Affairs
Association in Mobile, Alabama, which spearheaded the movement to desegregate buses, other public accommodations,
and the hiring of black police officers. In 1957, he joined
with Martin Luther King Jr., Ralph David Abernathy, and
other Southern ministers to organize the Southern Christian
Leadership Conference. He served as vice president until 1967,
then chair of the board until February 1977, and as president and CEO until January 15, 1998. In 1965, following the
Selma-to-Montgomery march, King named him chair of the
committee that took the demands of the march to then-Governor of Alabama George Wallace.
Lowery matriculated at Alabama A&M University, Knoxville
College, Paine Theological Seminary, and the Chicago
Ecumenical Institute. He has received numerous honorary doctorates.
On his eightieth birthday, the City of Atlanta changed the
name of Ashby Street to Joseph E. Lowery Boulevard; Atlanta
Public Schools established the Joseph E. Lowery Lecture Series
on Civic Engagement; and Clark Atlanta University founded
the Joseph E. Lowery Institute for Justice and Human Rights.
Ms. Greene will be presented by Dean of Emory College of Arts
and Sciences Robert A. Paul.
Dr. Lowery will be presented by Dean of Candler School of
Theology Jan Love.

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 165th 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. 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. This is still worn by doctors of law,
medicine, and music. It is uncertain when different colors became
associated with different degrees.
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 is without ornamentation
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. The doctor’s gown has full-length lapels of
velvet and bell-shaped sleeves with three horizontal velvet bars.
Tassels for bachelors and masters 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 others. The field of
study can be determined from the velvet facing on the hood
according to the following color scheme: white, the arts; goldyellow, science; purple, law; apricot, nursing; green, medicine;
scarlet, theology; salmon, public health; 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 fourteen 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 fall 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,
khaki. The gonfalon of the graduate school is gold representing
the 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 Pitts Theology
Library, one of the two oldest buildings on the Atlanta campus. Designed by the distinguished Pittsburgh architect Henry
Hornbostel (1867–1961), Pitts Theology Library 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 Pitts Library 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 Pitts Library sits the
more modern White Hall, the main classroom building of Emory
College. Above the trees of 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.
