Commencement Program THE UNIVERSITY of MISSISSIPPI One Hundred Sixty-Seventh COMMENCEMENT Saturday, the Eighth of May, Twenty-Twenty One Class of 2020 THE UNIVERSITY of MISSISSIPPI TM One Hundred Sixty-Seventh COMMENCEMENT Saturday, the Eighth of May, Twenty-Twenty One Class of 2020 Office of the Chancellor On behalf of the faculty and staff of the University of Mississippi, we extend a sincere welcome to the students, parents, families and friends gathered to celebrate Commencement for the Class of 2020. We are especially grateful to come together in person to recognize the spirit of our community and the academic accomplishments and dedication of our beloved graduates. Commencement is a time-honored tradition that recognizes the outstanding work and achievements of students and faculty. It is an exciting time for us, and we know this is a special occasion for all of you. Our students are the heart and soul of Ole Miss, and we take pride and inspiration in their accomplishments and growth. Today’s ceremony celebrates years of study, hard work and careful preparation, and we’re grateful that you have come to show your support, love and belief in these graduates. Our graduates accomplished so much during their time as Ole Miss students — they pursued their passions, maximized their potential and pushed their boundaries through outstanding learning opportunities and life-changing experiences. In addition, they endured the disruption caused by the pandemic, which has taught us all important life lessons about resilience and the need to be adaptable. Now, we can’t wait to see how they’ll continue to build personal legacies of achievement, service and leadership. Whether you’re a regular on campus or if it’s your first visit, we hope you enjoy your time with us. We invite you to explore our beautiful campus and discover what makes Ole Miss such a special and vibrant place, and we hope to see you here again soon. Sincerely, Glenn F. Boyce, Chancellor Noel E. Wilkin, Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs P.O.

Willis was a four-year letterwinner for the Rebels from 2003 to 2006. As a senior, he was a consensus All-American in 2006, when he won the Butkus Award and Lambert Trophy as the nation’s best linebacker. He twice led the Southeastern Conference in tackles and was selected to the most first team All- American squads (13) ever by a Rebel player in a single season. A first team All-American in 2005 and 2006, he was also a two-time SEC Defensive Player of the Year. He ranks sixth all-time at Ole Miss with 355 career tackles and is tied for fifth with 33 career tackles for loss. A Bruceton, Tennessee, native, Willis received the 2006 Conerly Trophy as the best college football player in the state of Mississippi, as well as the Ole Miss Chucky Mullins Courage Award. He ended his collegiate career as the Defensive MVP for the South Team in the 2007 Senior Bowl. Willis matched his on-field success in the classroom, earning Academic All-SEC honors and receiving the 2007 Wilma Rudolph Student-Athlete Achievement Award. A 2015 inductee into the Ole Miss Sports Hall of Fame, he was selected to SI.com’s All-Decade Team of the 2000s. The 11th overall selection of the 2007 NFL draft, Willis won NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year dur- ing his debut season with the San Francisco 49ers. He went on to enjoy an eight-year NFL career in which he made seven Pro Bowls and was voted All-Pro five times. One of the best defensive players of his era, Willis finished his NFL career with 950 combined tackles (732 solo, 218 assists), 20.5 sacks, 16 forced fumbles, five fumbles recovered, eight interceptions and two defensive touchdowns. In 2019, Willis became the 10th former player or coach to be inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame as an Ole Miss Rebel. He was also enshrined in the Mississippi and Tennessee Sports Halls of Fame. 5 ORDER OF MORNING SERVICE Vaught-Hemingway Stadium/Hollingsworth Field 8 a.m. The Star-Spangled Banner Keely Ann Kelso WELCOME AND INTRODUCTIONS Glenn F.

  • Commencement
    COMMENCEMENT University of Wisconsin-Whitewater December 19, 2020 More than 150 years ago, on April 21, 1868, the state’s second normal school opened its doors to the first class of 48 students and nine faculty members. A progressive spirit guided the development of the institution as it evolved from a normal school, which trained teachers for one-room schools, to Whitewater State Teachers College (1927), Wisconsin State College-Whitewater (1951), Wisconsin State University-Whitewater (1964) and as a member of the 13 four-year institutions in the University of Wisconsin System (1971). Today, UW-Whitewater is a leading comprehensive university serving approximately 11,842 full- and part-time students with 50 undergraduate majors, 13 master’s degree programs, one doctoral degree and one education specialist degree in the colleges of Arts and Communication, Business and Economics, Education and Professional Studies, Integrated Studies, and Letters and Sciences. The university awards more than 2,700 degrees every year. Throughout its history, UW-Whitewater has produced graduates who have actively contributed to the growth of the state and nation. Student learning is the paramount focus of the university’s programs and services. The university takes pride in its regional leadership, national presence and global vision. Many of its academic programs are among the best in the country. 1 Student Speaker Brian Martinez For Brian Martinez, becoming a Warhawk meant finding a place to plant roots. When he visited campus as a transfer student from another Wisconsin university, UW-Whitewater felt like an inclusive family, where everyone belonged — a place that put people first.

  • Bellator MMA Signs the Unmistakable Kimbo Slice to a Multi-Fight Contract
    He’s Back! Bellator MMA signs the unmistakable Kimbo Slice to a multi-fight contract SANTA MONICA – (January 16, 2015) The legend of Kimbo is back on Spike. One of MMA’s most recognizable names, the wildly popular former internet sensation Kimbo Slice has signed an exclusive, multi-fight deal with Bellator MMA and will make his promotional debut later this year. Bellator officially announced the signing moments ago on Spike TV during the “Bellator: Pitbull vs. Straus” event when Bellator’s Jimmy Smith caught up with the Miami slugger via Skype (#technology). “I’ve been trying to keep busy as much as possible,” said Slice. “Been boxing over the past couple of years. My current record [as a boxer] is 7-0. Bellator is up there in the tops and they’re giving me the opportunity to fight on primetime and Spike TV. You know you can’t resist Spike TV. “You gotta think, I’m still hungry out there. I haven’t got my fill yet. Whoever steps up to the plate, they got to bring it. I’m comin to get it.” “Anyone who has been to a Kimbo Slice fight has felt a thick, electric, tension in the air,” said Bellator President Scott Coker. “The man has a proven knack for evoking excitement every time he steps inside a cage, and that fits perfectly with the kind of fights we aim to put together.” Born in the Bahamas and raised in Florida, Slice started his combat sports career on the streets of Miami, where he competed in unsanctioned prize fights on camera.
