The Latin text quoted above has introduced Bowdoin’s Commencement Program since August 21, 1822. The names of the 24 graduates of the Class of 1822 were, for the most part, also translated into Latin for the program. In the early years of the College, each graduating senior was required to deliver a Commencement “part,” an oration on ancient or modern topics, which was frequently given in one of the classical languages, Latin, Greek, or Hebrew. The final Latin oration was given in 1893, but the tradition of Latin survives in the language used to dedicate the Commencement Exercises and to confer the bachelor of arts degree. The translation below was provided by Barbara Weiden Boyd, Henry Winkley Professor of Latin and Greek.
May it be good, felicitous, and well-omened: [an ancient Roman formula used at the outset of a ritual to ensure its success] To John Baldacci, esteemed Governor; to the Representatives and Senators who personally preside over the arts and letters for the State of Maine; and to the honorable and respected Trustees of Bowdoin College; to Barry Mills, distinguished President; to the entire academic senate; to the venerable religious leaders; in short, to all patrons of the human race everywhere, the young people hereby initiated into the arts and letters most humbly dedicate these exercises.
Held in a gathering of Bowdoin College, in Brunswick, in the State of Maine, on the sixth day before the Kalends of June, in the 2006th year of our well-being and in the 230th year of the authority of the United States of America. 85192_program 5/24/06 6:55 PM Page 1
DEGREES
This ancient formula is used by the President in conferring degrees:
Candidati pro gradu baccalaureali, assurgite.
Vir honorande, hosce juvenes, quos censeo idoneos primum ad gradum in artibus, nunc tibi offero, ut a te instructus, eos ad gradum istum admittam. Placetne? (Placet.)
Pro auctoritate mihi commissa, admitto vos ad primum gradum in artibus, et dono et concedo omnia jura, privilegia, honores atque dignitates, ad gradum istum pertinentia.
In cujus testimonium hasce membranas litteris scriptas accipite.
Candidates for the Baccalaureate degrees will rise.
(To the Chair of the Board of Trustees) Honored sir, these young people whom I deem worthy of the first degree in Arts, I now present to you, that, if you so direct, I may admit them to that degree. Is such your will? (It is.)
(To the Candidates) By virtue of the authority vested in me, I now admit you to the first degree in Arts and do grant and confer upon you all the rights, privileges, honors, and dignities pertaining to that degree.
In witness whereof, receive these diplomas.
NOTE: The Baccalaureate degrees are awarded individually, and the graduating class requests that there be no applause until the last degree is conferred.
At the Commencement Exercises, Bowdoin displays the College flag and the flags of the United States of America, the State of Maine, and the home or dual-citizenship countries or territories of graduating students—in 2006, Brazil, Canada, People’s Republic of China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Dominican Republic, France, Ireland, Japan, Kenya, Republic of Korea, New Zealand, Pakistan, Russia, Singapore, Thailand, Trinidad and Tobago, United Kingdom, Venezuela, and Vietnam. 85192_program 5/24/06 6:55 PM Page 2

HONORANDS OF THE 2006 COMMENCEMENT
ROGER ANGELL DOCTOR OF HUMANE LETTERS
A native New Yorker, Roger Angell is the senior editor at the New Yorker magazine, and is a gifted essayist, author, and baseball writer. He graduated from Harvard in 1942 and gained his first experi- ence in publishing as managing editor for a weekly magazine of the U.S. Army Air Forces. He became a writer and a fiction editor at the New Yorker in 1956 and began to write about baseball in 1962. As an editor he nurtured such writers as Garrison Keillor, William Trevor, and John Updike. His own works of fiction include The Stone Arbor and Other Stories. He also wrote the introduction for the most recent edition of The Elements of Style by William Strunk and E.B. White [Litt. D., Bowdoin 1950], who was Angell’s stepfather. Roger Angell is perhaps most widely known as a base- ball writer for The Summer Game (1972); Five Seasons (1977); Late Innings (1982); Season Ticket (1988); Once More Around the Park (1991); A Pitcher’s Story: Innings with David Cone (2001); and Game Time (2003). He is the recipient of the George Polk Award for Commentary (1981); the Authors Guild Award for Distinguished Service to American Letters (2000); and in 2005 was a Kelly Writers House Fellow at the University of Pennsylvania.
NAWAL M. NOUR DOCTOR OF SCIENCE
Nawal M. Nour is an obstetrician and gynecologist at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston and an assistant professor at the Harvard Medical School. She is director of the hospital’s African Women’s Health Center and of its Obstetric Resident Practice. A Sudanese-American born in Khartoum, Sudan, Dr. Nour was raised in Egypt and England. She earned a B.A. from Brown University in 1988, an M.D. degree from the Harvard Medical School in 1994, and a master of public health degree from Harvard in 1999. She founded the African Women’s Health Center the same year; the center is the first (and only) African health practice in the United States that focuses on the physical and emotional needs of women who have undergone female genital cutting as a cultural practice. Dr. Nour was awarded a 2003 MacArthur Foundation Fellowship for her efforts on national and international levels to educate patients and their families as well as obste- trician-gynecologists on the policy implications and the health consequences of female circumcision.
KIKI SMITH DOCTOR OF ARTS
New York-based graphic artist and sculptor Kiki Smith uses a variety of materials and media to explore the dichotomy between the psychological power and the physiological power of the human body. She attended Hartford Art School in Connecticut from 1974 to 1976. In the late 1970s and early 1980s she was associated with the artists’ collective Collaborative Projects, Inc., and participated in the celebrated Times Square Show of 1980. Her 1990 exhibition in the Projects 85192_program 5/24/06 6:55 PM Page 17
Room at the Museum of Modern Art in New York received wide acclaim. Her work may be found in the collections of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, and the Bowdoin College Museum of Art. The Museum of Modern Art in New York organized a major retrospective of her prints and multiples in 2003–2004, and the Monacelli Press recently published a comprehensive survey of Ms. Smith’s work in conjunction with a retrospective exhibition that opened at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in November of 2005. She received the Skowhegan Medal for Sculpture in 2000 and has participated in the Whitney Biennial three times.
BEVERLY DANIEL TATUM DOCTOR OF HUMANE LETTERS
Psychologist, educator, author, and college president Beverly Daniel Tatum is a nationally recog- nized authority on racial issues in America. A psychologist by training, Dr. Tatum received a B.A. from Wesleyan University in 1975, M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in clinical psychology from the University of Michigan, and an M.A. in religious studies from Hartford Seminary. She began her teaching career at the University of California at Santa Barbara, followed by several years at Westfield State College in Massachusetts, and thirteen years at Mt. Holyoke College, where she was professor, dean of the college and vice president for student affairs, and acting president. In 2002 she was named the ninth president of Spelman College, a historically black college for women locat- ed in Atlanta, Georgia. Dr. Tatum’s research has examined racial identity development in teens, the impact of race on classroom dynamics, and the experiences of African-American families in predom- inantly white communities. Her books include Assimilation Blues: Black Families in a White Community (1987) and “Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?” and Other Conversations About Race (1997).
DONALD M. ZUCKERT ’56 DOCTOR OF HUMANE LETTERS
In the fifty years since his graduation Donald M. Zuckert has served the College through his energy and creativity, his willingness to take on difficult tasks and responsibilities, and his philanthropy. He assumed leadership roles in the Campaign for Bowdoin in the 1980s and served as chair of the New Century Campaign from 1996 to 1998. He was elected an overseer of the College in 1987, trustee of the College in 1995, chair of the Board of Trustees from 2002 to 2005, and trustee emeritus in 2005. Despite the demands of a career at the highest levels of the advertising industry for many years, Don Zuckert has always been among the first to put his shoulder to the wheel for Bowdoin’s benefit and bring about a positive outcome, whether the need was for the renovation of Cleaveland House, establishing the Donald M. Zuckert Visiting Professorship, support for the arts, or bringing promising students to the attention of the Admissions Office. His brother, Owen, is a member of the Class of 1954, and his son Timothy is a member of the Class of 1986. 85192_program 5/24/06 6:55 PM Page 18

ACADEMIC APPAREL
The formal academic attire that distinguishes faculty and graduates at academic ceremonies is a symbol at once vertical and horizontal. It stretches back into history, to the roots of academic institutions, while at the same time it forms a bond of union among contemporary academic scholars. The gown, cap, and hood, which would certainly seem quaint today if worn on our city streets, were originally the ordinary apparel of our medieval ancestors. The gowns varied in elegance according to the rank and wealth of the owners, and the hood had the practical function of being pulled over the head for warmth. Many of the medieval uni- versities had strict rules on the subject; at Oxford, for example, the master of arts had to swear that he owned the dress prescribed for his degree and that he would wear it on all proper occasions. Undergraduates were required to wear their gowns whenever they appeared in the public street. After the sixteenth century in Europe different styles prevailed, but the older style was retained for certain legal, official, clerical, and, especially, academic uses. In America the gown has been used to some extent since colonial times. It was only in the late nineteenth cen- tury, however, that widespread interest — sparked perhaps by the observance in 1886 of the 250th anniversary of the founding of Harvard — brought about several developments. In 1887 an enterprising member of the graduating class of Williams College designed academic gowns for the graduates to wear at the Commencement ceremony. The garb was significant and dignified; it was both traditional and democratic; it answered a need, and it quickly became popular. In 1895 an intercollegiate code, standardizing the design and the color of each part of the academic regalia, was accepted by nearly all American colleges and universities. The gown is usually black, and the cut of the sleeves differs for bachelors, masters, and doctors. In addition, the doctor’s gown has panels of velvet (usually black) down the front and on the sleeves. The cap is generally black, with a tassel which is either black or the color of the field of study; a doctor’s may be gold. The most common style of cap is the Oxford “mortar board,” with a square flat top, but some variations are permitted. The hood is the most distinctive part of the costume. It is made of black and trimmed with velvet. Both the length of the hood and the width of the trim vary with the level of the degree, the doctor’s being the longest and having the widest velvet border. The color of the velvet indicates the field of study in which the degree is received: for example, white for arts and letters (bachelor of arts), dark blue for philosophy, brown for fine arts, golden yellow for science, scar- let for theology. The lining of the hood is the color and style of the university that confers the degree; these are all speci- fied in the standard code of the American Council on Education. Bowdoin College’s lining is white and green to sym- bolize the Bowdoin pines. Whatever the degree or university, those who don the gown and hood symbolically take their places in the long procession of scholars who have pursued truth and learning and passed it on to others. The consciousness of that fellow- ship is at once a reward for past efforts and an inspiration for the future.

RAISE SONGS TO BOWDOIN
Words by K.C.M. Sills, Class of 1901 New Lyrics by Anthony Antolini ’63 Music by C.T. Burnett Arr. by Thornton W. Allen
Raise songs to Bowdoin, praise her fame, And sound abroad her glorious name; To Bowdoin, Bowdoin lift your song, And may the music echo long O’er whispering pines and campus fair With sturdy might filling the air. Bowdoin, from birth, our nurturer and friend To thee we pledge our love again, again.
While now amid thy halls we stay And breathe thy spirit day by day, Oh may we thus full worthy be To march in that proud company Of poets, leaders and each one Who brings thee fame by deeds well done. Bowdoin, from birth, our nurturer and friend To thee we pledge our love again, again. 85192_covers 5/23/06 11:22 AM Page 3 85192_covers 5/23/06 11:22 AM Page 4
