A. G. Rud DISTINGUISHED PROFESSOR CHAIR, WSU FACULTY SENATE

Today is a very special day as we celebrate your successful completion of your undergraduate or graduate degree from WSU.

Each of you has forged your own path in working for your degree, which has taught you the importance of individual differences in one’s education and development, and the need to be willing to adapt and change.

College is a time of great transition. You leave home, mature, learn new ideas, and meet new people. The skills you have acquired in the laboratory or the ideas in the lecture hall are not all that count for learning. This is what educa­ tors call formal learning, and you have had lots of that here. But college is also a robust place for intense and frequent informal learning. Discussing with friends outside of class, participating in social service projects, attending athletic contests, and socializing with others on the weekend are all opportunities where you can learn many valuable lessons beyond books, tests, or papers. If you studied abroad, you experienced and learned much about a new country and culture, and the new friends you made there make the world seem a smaller place.

Some of you may have known exactly what you wanted to do and took a direct path to your place here today. For others, your education here has taken you on several different paths along the way, until your journey revealed your true calling. This is what education is all about, and although the way can be difficult and filled with obstacles, over­ coming them and succeeding is your true accomplishment.

So today is a time to reflect and to celebrate your good friends and experiences here at WSU inside and outside the classroom, and to celebrate your achievements with family and thank them for all their support over the years. None of us accomplishes a goal by ourselves, no matter how talented we are. We are all linked to each other, independent and dependent at the same time. Keep striking the balance between developing one’s own capabilities and acknowledg­ ing that working with others can allow one to go even further and provide greater satisfaction.

Many congratulations to each and every one of you! You have made us proud, and Go Cougs!

A. G. Rud Distinguished Professor Chair, WSU Faculty Senate

Ray Acuña-luna CHAIR, ADMINISTRATIVE PROFESSIONAL ADVISORY COUNCIL

Graduates, welcome to the best day of your life! Today, you join an elite group of individuals who have forged and continue to shape the world. As professional staff at WSU, the driving motivation in our —and one that gives all of us great satisfaction—is your success. We know the effort you put into your academics, the late hours of studying, the tests, and the projects. You also gained friends for life, met professors who inspired you, and earned a degree from a university that will carry you as far as you wish to go. We feel proud and honored to have helped you and your fellow Cougars achieve that success.

My favorite educational philosopher, Paulo Freire, said:

[T]he more radical the person is, the more fully he or she enters into reality so that, knowing it better, he or she can transform it. This individual is not afraid to confront, to listen, to see the world unveiled. This person is not afraid to meet the people or to enter into a dialogue with them. This person does not consider himself or herself the propri­ etor of history or of all people, or the liberator of the oppressed; but he or she does commit himself or herself, within history, to fight at their side.

Graduates, the voiceless desperately cry out for help to a world that will not listen. Today, I am calling you to action. To never sit at the sidelines and be that radical person. With the privilege of having received a quality education at a top tier institution, you bear a responsibility to enact change and transform the world for the better.

We look forward to great things from you. You will always be part of the Cougar Nation, and we wish you the best of luck in all your endeavors. On behalf of the Administrative Professional Advisory Council, I salute your accomplish­ ments. Vamos Cougs!

To the Graduates of the Class of 2016,

On behalf of your student governments, the Associated Students of Washington State University, the Associated Students of Washington State University Global Campus, and the Graduate and Professional Student Association, CONGRATULATIONS on reaching this amazing milestone and graduating from Washington State University! It has been an honor to serve as your presidents at such a distinguished institution.

We want to take a moment and applaud you on reaching this remarkable accomplishment. You have worked long and hard to be sitting where you are today, so be proud of yourself! Remember the people in your life that helped you get here; please don’t forget to acknowledge and thank those individuals who encouraged and supported your journey to this day. Commencement marks one of the most joyous landmarks in your academic journey, so please take a moment to acknowledge all of your hard work and dedication and reflect on the valuable degree you have just earned from one of the finest universities in the nation.

From here, we all go different ways. While you may feel as though you are being ejected into a world of uncertainty, we feel confident that your time here at Washington State University has equipped you to find your way through the challenges you will encounter in the months and years that lie ahead. You may realize it or not, but your time here has developed the resilient characteristics of a WSU Cougar. Be confident in that.

As you move forward on your next endeavors, remember Washington State University will always be your home. Remain engaged and become an active alumni the moment you leave campus. Stay connected with friends and fac­ ulty who impacted your experience here at Washington State University. Commencement represents both a comple­ tion and a new beginning. Once again, congratulations on the academic completion; ASWSU and GPSA wish you the best of luck moving forward. GO COUGS!

COMMENCEMENT 2016

Washington State University cordially welcomes all who have come to the Pullman campus for the 16th annual fall Commencement to honor the graduating class of 2016. To class members, the Class of 2016, the University would like to acknowledge your accomplishments and congratulate you all.

Commencement is the special occasion where students are recognized for their academic achievements. These achievements are reflected in their transcript, an official document certifying the completion of academic require­ ments. The culmination of a student’s success at WSU comes with the arrival of their diploma, which is mailed after the ceremony.

The first WSU Commencement ceremony, held on June 24, 1897, recognized a total of eight students. Today we honor more than 850 students from varying states, U.S. territories, and countries.

WSU enrolls 30,142 students statewide. This includes 17,527 undergraduates and 2,666 graduate and professional stu­ dents learning at the Pullman campus, and 7,377 undergraduates and 2,572 graduate and professional students at the off campus locations of Everett, Spokane, Tri-Cities, Vancouver, and the Global Campus (online). WSU is also privileged to support 10,350 first generation college students in their academic journey. Washington State University is proud of a growing family of Cougar alumni and is honored to celebrate their achievements.

DISCLAIMER

The names of the degree recipients are called in random order as they approach the readers. Students will be viewed on big screens as their names are read.

Names in the Fall 2016 Commencement program include August 2016 degree candidates and December 2016 degree candidates who met the application deadline. Those previously awarded degrees are noted with an asterisk (*).

Appearance of a name in this program is presumptive evidence of graduation and graduation honors, but it must not in any sense be regarded as conclusive. Notation on the university transcript remains the official testimony of degree possession.

The program is not a listing of those attending the ceremony.

PRESIDENT’S CHAIN OF OFFICE

During commencement ceremonies and other special occasions, the president of Washington State Univer­ sity wears the President’s Chain of Office. The medallion features the WSU shield with Cougar head, and the links are engraved with the names and dates of service for each past WSU president, starting with George Lilley, who served from 1891 to 1892, and ending with the late Elson S. Floyd, who served from 2007 to 2015. Blank links allow engraving of names and service years for future presidents.

The Chain of Office was created at the request of V. Lane Rawlins, who became president of WSU on June 8, 2000. He wore it for the first time during his inauguration on March 28, 2001.

THE UNIVERSITY MACE

The University Mace, a traditional symbol of authority, will lead the processional today. The mace is carried by the chair of the Faculty Senate with an honor guard consisting of the presidents of the undergraduate and graduate and profes­ sional student associations. A. G. Rud carries it today, accompanied by Taylor Christenson, president of the Associated Students of WSU, and Melanie Thornton, president of the Graduate and Professional Student Association of WSU.

Created in 1985, the two-foot-long, nine-pound scepter is cast in silver and bronze and features a globe atop a laurel branch, wrapped in a silver ribbon and inscribed “Washington State University.” According to designer and craftsman Tim Doebler of WSU’s Department of Fine Arts, “the globe represents the universality of education and the quest for knowledge. Laurel crowns were presented to academicians by the ancient Greeks.”

The anvil is a symbol of forging and molding education, rather than forcing it upon students.

PHOTOGRAPHY COVERAGE Photography and video will be available through Image Studios & After Image Visual Services. Proofs will be mailed to each graduate’s permanent address and will also be posted online at www.gradwsu.com. DVD video of the entire ceremony and individual digital video clips will also be available to order through the website or the mailed proofs.
