2012 Undergraduate Commencement L I N D E N W O O D U N I V E R S I T Y St.Charles Family Arena • Saturday, May 12, 2012 • 10 a.m. LU12-84 2012 Commencement-Undergrad.indd 1 4/26/12 8:59 AM LU12-84 2012 Commencement-Undergrad.indd 2 4/26/12 8:59 AM Lindenwood University Commencement Welcome to Lindenwood University and one of the most important ceremonial occasions of the academic year. Lindenwood’s Commencement ceremony is filled with symbolism and tradition that remind us of the noble purpose of colleges and universities. The academic dress worn by the students, faculty, boards, and platform party is described on the back inside cover of this program. Students wearing blue gowns and black and white medallions are members of Linden Scroll. Students wearing blue gowns and gold medallions are members of Lindenwood Student Ambassadors, a select group of students dedicated to the positive promotion of Lindenwood University. Their duty as marshals is to direct the processional and seating of students, faculty, board members, and administrators. Academic customs originated within the medieval Church, and the order of procession follows ecclesiastical custom with the most honored members of the procession at the end. The fife and drums corps, followed by the Linden Scroll flag bearers and the graduating students, leads the procession. The faculty follows the students in the processional, and members of the Alumni Board, the University Board of Directors, and the platform party follow them. The president, preceded by the faculty marshal, is the last person to enter the Commencement area. The mace carried in the academic procession by the faculty marshal symbolizes the authority of the president. A staff of linden wood, surmounted by a silver cup, is used. The mace originally belonged to President John Roemer who served Lindenwood from 1914 to 1940. It is used only on occasions when the faculty and president march in formal procession. The American flag and Lindenwood University flag are displayed at the foot of the platform, along with the mace. For centuries, colleges and universities have awarded honorary degrees to worthy recipients for institutional and societal contributions. These degrees, awarded honoris causa (“for honorary cause”), represent Lindenwood University’s most time-honored way of recognizing significant service and achievement. At university graduations, there are typically three types of Latin honors bestowed. In order of increasing level of honor, they are as follows: Cum Laude, “with praise”; Magna Cum Laude, “with great praise”; and Summa Cum Laude, “with highest praise.” Two additional forms of recognition offered at Lindenwood are University Honors, recognition of students who graduate with a cumulative grade-point average of at least 3.3 and complete at least eight courses with an Honors distinction, and Community Service Honors, recognition of students who complete five hundred hours of qualified community service. During Lindenwood’s Commencement ceremony, the candidates for degrees are presented to the President by the executive administrative officers. Each student’s name is read by a dean, and the President presents the diploma to that student and congratulates the new graduate. Once all the degrees have been conferred, the fife and drum corps leads the recessional in reverse order of their entry with the newest alumni at the end of the procession. Faculty members gather on either side of the aisle at the rear of the seating area applauding their former students. We hope that you enjoy our Commencement ceremony and that you will respect our protocol for the enjoyment of all concerned. Please remain in your seats during the ceremony. During the conferring of degrees, please refrain from prolonged noisemaking until all of the graduates have been presented. Please stand for the processional and invocation, as well as for the benediction and recessional. LU12-84 2012 Commencement-Undergrad.indd 3 4/26/12 8:59 AM Lindenwood History Lindenwood was founded in 1827 by Mary Easton Sibley (1800-1878) and George C. Sibley (1782-1863). The institution was incorporated by the Missouri Legislature in 1853, making it the second oldest institution of higher learning west of the Mississippi River. The Sibleys deeded the Lindenwood property to the Missouri Synod of the Presbyterian Church on February 24, 1853, a formal affiliation that lasted over a century. While Lindenwood is fully independent today, the University enjoys a historical relationship with the Presbyterian Church and remains true to its founding values. The first commencement ceremony was held in 1858, and Lindenwood became coeducational in 1969. Evening programs were established in 1972, and graduate studies were instituted in 1975. Lindenwood became a university in 1997, the St. Louis area’s regional university in 2002, and a doctoral institution in 2007. The University has experienced dynamic growth over the past two decades. Not only did Lindenwood College evolve into a university, but it grew from a student population of 800 residential students to more than 4,000 today with a total student enrollment of about 17,000 and a St. Charles campus of 80 acres to more than 500 acres. Lindenwood is one of the few colleges and universities in the country that remains debt-free. Lindenwood Mission Statement Lindenwood University offers values-centered programs leading to the development of the whole person – an educated, responsible citizen of a global community. Lindenwood is committed to • providing an integrative liberal arts curriculum; • offering professional and pre-professional degree programs; • focusing on the talents, interests, and future of the student; • supporting academic freedom and the unrestricted search for truth; • affording cultural enrichment to the surrounding community; • promoting ethical lifestyles; • developing adaptive thinking and problem-solving skills; • furthering lifelong learning. Lindenwood is an independent, public-serving liberal arts university that has a historical relationship with the Presbyterian Church and is firmly rooted in Judeo-Christian values. These values include belief in an ordered, purposeful universe, the dignity of work, the worth and integrity of the individual, the obligations and privileges of citizenship, and the primacy of the truth.

Such corps and their music were central to army life in the early 19th century, including at Fort Osage, where George Sibley was Indian trade factor from its founding in 1808 until 1822. The sounds of army music like this would have continued to be familiar to the Sibleys, since both St. Louis and St. Charles were still relative outposts just beginning to serve as a gateway for westward expansion. Just as a fife and drum corps was central to ceremonial processions in the Sibleys’ day, so too is it integral to ours at Lindenwood today. The George Champlain Sibley Fifers and Drummers represent the look and sound of a U.S. Army fife and drums corps from the time period of the War of 1812. They play instruments from that period, including replica wooden six- and ten-hole fifes and deep rope-tension drums. LU12-84 2012 Commencement-Undergrad.indd 24 4/26/12 8:59 AM Academic Dress The caps, gowns, and hoods worn by the faculty and students at this graduation are today’s formal dress of the worldwide academic community. While now worn only on festive occasions such as commencement, such dress was originally the normal garb of academics as they went about their daily business. Originating in Europe more than a thousand years ago, like universities and colleges themselves, academic dress first developed within the Church, and all academics were once at least in minor orders within the Church. The robes and hoods are stylized versions of these monastic robes. In Europe, each institution seems to have its own variant of costume, but in America, academic costume follows a uniform code drawn up by a special commission in 1895. The code has three main parts, dealing with caps, gowns, and hoods. The Oxford type cap or mortarboard seems to have evolved from the square biretta of Renaissance clergy. It is always black and may be of any appropriate material except that velvet is reserved for doctors. Many faculty members wear the Cambridge style cap. The tassel worn with the cap has three variations. It may be black for any degree or it may be the color of the academic area in which the degree was granted. Doctors and governing officials of institutions wear tassels made of gold metallic thread. The tassel is worn on the left side of the cap. The academic robes are all black, except for certain doctoral robes. The style of robe indicates the highest degree earned by the wearer. Bachelor sleeves are pointed, and the robe is plain. Undergraduate students who have achieved honors display a cord. Students who graduate with University Honors wear a purple double cord; students who graduate with Community Service Honors wear a cardinal red and silver grey double cord; students who graduate with Veteran Honors wear a red, white and blue double cord; students who graduate cum laude (with praise) wear a white double cord; students who graduate magna cum laude (with great praise) wear a gold double cord; and students who graduate summa cum laude (with highest praise or distinction) wear a gold and white triple cord. Master’s robe sleeves are oblong and longer. The doctoral robe features velvet bands in the front, and the robe sleeve also has velvet bands and is gathered at the wrist. The doctoral robe itself is cut much fuller than the other two gowns. The hoods indicate the academic area of degree, the level of the degree, and the school that granted it. The level of the degree is shown by the size of the hood, the width of the velvet trimming, and in the case of the doctor, the shape. The master’s, the specialist’s, and the doctor’s hoods are three and one-half feet, three and three-quarters feet, and four feet long, respectively. The velvet trimming in the same order is three, four, and five inches wide. The outer band of the hood indicates, by color, the degree; the bright, silken interior of the hood, by its colors and design, indicates its source. Each university and college has a distinct hood. The Lindenwood University hood is lined with white and yellow silk, representing the University’s colors. The colors of the mortarboard tassels worn by today’s degree recipients, as well as the hoods worn by faculty and graduate students, indicate the major fields of study.
