  • Undergraduate Commencement Program 2019
    SOUTH DAKOTA STATE UNIVERSITY One Hundred Thirty-Third UNDERGRADUATE COMMENCEMENT Saturday, May 4, 2019 Frost Arena Stanley J. Marshall Center Brookings, South Dakota The Ceremonial Mace The Ceremonial Mace is traditionally carried by a university marshal at all formal academic occasions. The staff, which stands 36 inches high from top to bottom, is made of walnut with a mahogany finish. It is trimmed in 14k plated gold. At the top of the Mace is the great seal of South Dakota State University. The engraved inscription reads “South Dakota State University founded 1881.” The Mace was presented to the University as a gift from the SDSU Alumni Association and was used for the first time at President Peggy Gordon Miller’s inauguration, Sept. 19, 1998. The Ceremonial Mace has an ancient history as a symbol of authority. In medieval times it was a studded, clublike weapon, made of iron and capable of breaking armor. It became associated with the protection of the king in France and England and was carried by the king’s sergeant-at-arms. In the 13th century, it was used for civil purposes and figured in the processions of city mayors and other dignitaries. Eventually, the Mace became a symbol also for academic institutions, an emblem of order and authority in the pageantry of ceremonial occasions. The University Presidential Medallion The University Presidential Medallion, a traditional symbol of authority of the Office of the President, is a 14k gold replica of the University Seal, is 3 inches in diameter and is cast as a single piece. The reverse side of the Medallion is engraved with the names the University has formally held since its inception: Dakota Agricultural College, 1884-1889; South Dakota Agricultural College, 1890-1907; South Dakota State College of Agricultural and Mechanic Arts, 1907-June 30, 1964; and South Dakota State University, July 1, 1964-Present.

PROCLAIMS 20 FEBRUARY CIVIL AIR PATROL DAY IN SOUTH DAKOTA. Governor Dennis Daaugard issued a proclamation that designated 20 February as Civil Air Patrol Day in South Dakota. The proclamation commends SDWG for its multitude of missions and service to local communities, counties and the state. A copy of the proclamation is attached at the end of this newsletter. GOV. DAUGAARD POSES WITH THE SDWG CONTINGENT AT THE STATE CAPITOL ON CIVIL AIR PATROL DAY Photo by Lieutenant Vincent Brown, Sioux Falls Composite Squadron 1 HOT NEWS: WING LEGISLATIVE DAY AT STATE CAPITOL: On Thursday, 20 February members of the Wing from across the state converged on the state Capitol in Pierre to meet with legislators to thank them for their support. Over 40 members representing all six squadrons made the trip. Col. Seten commented, “The purpose is to tell state policymakers the story of Civil Air Patrol in South Dakota, of the many volunteer hours spent on air and ground missions for local, county, tribal, state and federal government, law enforcement agencies and first responder organizations. We also want them to know of our cadet program that prepares young people not just for careers in the military, but to be good citizens.” He also said it is important that the public understands in a time of limited budgets, SDWG helps stretch the resources of the state and saves money by using well-trained, professional volunteers, volunteers who are held to the same level of performance and knowledge as their paid colleagues.

    South Dakota Constitution 1 Steve Barnett Secretary of State January 2019 1 Foreword I am pleased to be able to present this copy of the State Constitution to the people of South Dakota. Since becoming the 40th state to enter statehood, South Dakota has risen to be one the freest and most vibrant in the union. Within these pages of our State Constitution is the foundation of South Dakota's unique heritage and understanding of life as experienced on the prairie, in the rugged west and in city life. Our laws continue to reflect the diversity of culture and people who live here and have made South Dakota their home. Since the Constitution was created in 1889, South Dakotans have carved their impression in our state with adventurous spirits, rugged individualism and the chance to improve upon an already blessed region. South Dakota has been fortunate to have an educated and engaged citizenry who have worked to actively ensure our laws will protect your rights and freedoms as citizens of South Dakota.
