ommencement C Ceremony Fortieth Annual Sunday, May 22, 2011 Chase Center on the Riverfront (Wilmington, Delaware) College of Arts and Sciences & College of Business (10:00 a.m.) College of Education & College of Technology (1:00 p.m.) College of Health Professions & College of Social and Behavioral Sciences (3:30 p.m.) We l c om e Dear Graduates, Families and Friends, Welcome to the 2011 Wilmington University spring commencement ceremony. This is a very momentous day for all of our graduates and I would like to congratulate each and every one of you for this great achievement. As you walk across the stage to receive your diploma remember all the hard work and dedication you put into earning this degree. Remember the support of your families and friends who may be watching you in the audience, and take time to remember all the great memories you have had here at Wilmington University. Over forty years ago, in the fall of 1968, a small group of enthusiastic students enrolled in a brand new college in New Castle then known as Wilmington College. The University has come a long way from those humble beginnings but our commitment to academic excellence, providing access for all and creating the best learning environment for our students has remained the same. At Wilmington University you are part of the family. The Wilmington University family continues to grow with each passing year and I continue to be surprised by the commitment and dedication shown by each and every one of our students. It is because of you, the students of Wilmington University, that our humble institution continues on this road to success. I wish all our graduates the greatest success in your future career paths, and I hope you will keep in touch with your family here at Wilmington University. Dr. Jack P.

The Bachelor’s Degree The bachelor’s degree is the oldest academic degree used by American institutions of higher learning. The degree was first conferred in America in 1642 on nine young men comprising the first graduating class of Harvard College. The bachelor’s degree, or baccalaureate, represents completion of a four-year collegiate course of study. The Master’s Degree The master’s degree is academic honor conferred upon students who have successfully completed one or two years of work beyond the baccalaureate. A thesis and an oral examination are usually required. The term’s present meaning derives from the oldest universities in Europe, when the circle of academic pursuit was limited to seven liberal arts. Those who received public honors upon the completion of their studies and who already had received the degree baccalaureus were called magistri atrium (master of the arts). The Doctoral Degree Doctor is a term meaning teacher, or instructor, and was applied by ancient Romans to those who delivered public lectures on philosophical subjects. From the 12th century, it became a title of honor for men of great learning. It was first made an academic title at the University of Bologna, in Italy, which received from the emperor the right to appoint doctors legume (doctors of laws). There are two types of doctoral degrees: the professional degree and the research degree. The first represents advanced training for the practice of professions such as medicine, pharmacy, law or nursing. These degrees carry no implication of original research. The research doctorate represents prolonged advanced study, usually accompanied by a dissertation designed to make a substantial contribution to existing knowledge on the subject. The degree confers upon those who attain it the title doctor of philosophy, although the degree no longer is associated with the study of philosophy. It was first awarded in the United States by Yale University in 1861. 71 Ac ade m ic S y m b ol s Academic Costume The traditional black caps and gowns worn in the academic procession have been the costume of scholars since medieval times. They probably were adapted from ecclesiastical garb, since many scholars in the Middle Ages were clerics. In 1895, an intercollegiate commission drafted a uniform code for academic costumes, which the majority of colleges and universities in the United States have adopted. Each of the three academic degrees has its own distinctive gown and hood. The gown representing the bachelor’s degree has a long, pointed sleeve; the master’s a narrow sleeve; the doctor’s a full, bell-shaped sleeve with three bars of velvet. The opening of this gown is faced with wide velvet bands, which may be or of a color indicating the wearer’s general field of leaning. The most colorful and distinctive part of the academic costume is the hood, which passes around the neck and extends down the back. The color of the velvet edging indicates the wearer’s field of learning. The colors of silk lining exposed in the center of the hood are those of the college or university that conferred the degree.

Maroon Although the cap, or mortarboard, is uniform in design for all degrees, the tassel may be either black or the color of the field of learning. The tassel of the doctor’s cap may be gold. The University Mace The University mace, was created for the 1971 commencement and has been used at each subsequent commencement ceremony. The mace, which is a traditional symbol of authority, includes the seal of Wilmington University, wrought in brass, on a walnut staff. The Banners The six commencement banners identify the academic discipline of the degree being conferred. Each banner incorporates the University seal, together with colors that echo the graduates’ hoods. Each college has its own academic honor society. Students wearing colored cords or sashes are wearing the colors which signify membership in the honor society of their particular college. 72 Wilmington University Fortieth Annual Commencement M i ss ion S tat e m e n t Wilmington University is committed to excellence in teaching, relevancy of the curriculum, and individual attention to students.
