22 The Bruce M. Unger Award for Retiring Faculty

Dr. Bruce M. Unger was a Political Science professor at Randolph-Macon College for 40 years. Unger planned to retire in 2008 but lost his courageous fight against cancer before his retirement was official. The Bruce M. Unger Award was established to recognize the contributions of retiring faculty with more than 10 years of service to the College.

Bruce M. Unger, Ph.D.

The Bruce M. Unger Award Recipient

William T. Franz, Ph.D. Professor of Physics and Provost & Vice President for Academic Affairs Franz, who joined the faculty in 1983, earned his B.S. from Muhlenberg College, and his M.S. and Ph.D. from University of Delaware. As a physicist, Franz specializes in solid-state physics, physics education, and the physics of sports. In 2010, after a year of service as R-MC’s Vice Provost, Franz was appointed Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. Under his leadership, R-MC faculty created 11 new majors in nine years. Franz was a critical partner in the successful completion of the college’s $125 million capital campaign, Building Extraordinary, and he was a guiding force in the implementation and success of the college’s Strategic Plan.

23 The Academic Dress

Modern American academic dress follows a custom that preserves many of the features that originated in the Middle Ages, when cap, gown, tunic and hood were ordinary clothing for men of all ranks, inside and outside the universities. The people of the Middle Ages associated particular styles of gowns and hoods with scholars of varying degrees of prestige.

President Lindgren’s black woolen gown with purple velvet chevrons and panels is the Juris Doctor gown of the University of Florida.

The velvet bindings seen in various colors on the hoods worn in Randolph-Macon’s academic procession indicate the following degrees:

Agriculture Maize Arts, Letters, Humanities White Commerce, Accountancy, Business Drab Dentistry Lilac Economics Copper Education Light Blue Engineering Orange Fine Arts, including Architecture Brown Forestry Russet Journalism Crimson Law Purple Library Science Lemon Medicine Green Music Pink Nursing Apricot Oratory (Speech) Silver Gray Pharmacy Olive Green Philosophy Dark Blue Physical Education Sage Green Public Administration, including Foreign Service Peacock Blue Public Health Salmon Pink Science Golden Yellow Social Work Citron Theology Scarlet Veterinary Science Gray

24 The Simpson Mace

The Simpson Mace is a symbol of academic authority at Randolph-Macon College. Dr. W. Schuyler Miller carried it for the first time on September 16, 1988, as the faculty processed to the fall convocation and dedication ceremony for the McGraw-Page Library. Dr. and Mrs. Grellet C. Simpson presented the mace in honor of Dr. Thomas McNider Simpson, Jr., Class of 1901, a Randolph-Macon Professor of Mathematics and Dean of the Faculty, and the sixteen members of the Simpson family who attended the college between 1894 and 1984. Grellet Simpson, a member of the Randolph-Macon College Class of 1930, was a Professor of English and Dean of the Faculty at his alma mater.

The Presidential Medallion

Susannah Wagner, a registered British silversmith of Ashland, Virginia, created the Presidential Medallion in 1998 using a silver representation of the College’s seal created by the Franklin Mint. The chain and frame around the seal are silver; the oak and maple leaf insets within the chain are gold. The medallion, which symbolizes the Office of the President, was a gift to the College from .Dr and Mrs. John B. Werner of Richmond, Virginia. Dr. Werner is a Trustee Emeritus and a member of the Randolph-Macon Class of 1953.

The College Seal

The official College seal depicts Randolph-Macon’s first building, a four-story brick structure built in 1832, which still stands today on the school’s original campus in Boydton, Virginia. Encircling this image are the words Sigillum Collegi Randolph-Maconensis in Virginia–“Seal of Randolph- Macon College in Virginia.” The seal appears on all Randolph-Macon College diplomas and other official documents of the College.

Honors Program Medals

The medals worn by graduates of the Randolph-Macon College Honors Program consist of a pewter medal on a black ribbon. The medal has the College seal in the center and the words “Honors Program Graduate” in the perimeter.

The United States Flag The United States flag located on the Commencement stage was flown over the United States Capitol on February 3, 2003, at the request of the Honorable John Warner, United States Senator, in recognition of the anniversary of the founding of Randolph-Macon College.

25 Randolph-Macon College

By the 1820s, clergy of the Virginia Conference of the Methodist Church had recognized a need to educate prospective clergymen in the fields of English, History and Geography, so they could pass required examinations for entrance into the ministry. This growing need, coupled with the rise of more cities with more learned congregations, called for the establishment of a liberal arts College where prospective ministers could study and learn the art of communication with urban townspeople.

In 1830, the Virginia legislature approved a charter for Randolph-Macon College, which would be located in Boydton, Virginia, near the border of North Carolina. The names of John Randolph, a Virginia statesman, and Nathaniel Macon, a North Carolina statesman, were given to the College to dispel the notion that the school was to be only a sectarian one. Neither man was Methodist.

The College was moved to Ashland, Virginia in 1868 after the railroads to Boydton were destroyed during the Civil War. The move to Ashland challenged the College’s spirit and stimulated new growth. The students themselves raised most of the funds for the first major building constructed on the “new” campus—Washington and Franklin Hall, a national historic landmark that was completely renovated in 1987.

Today, Randolph-Macon is the oldest Methodist-related College in continuous operation in the United States. It remains true to its mission of developing the minds and character of its students through a combination of personal interaction with faculty who challenge students to maximize their potential, and by offering a rigorous curriculum. The College integrates this outstanding liberal arts education and success strategies taught in the classroom, with a four-year career preparation program called the EDGE. Dedicated staff in the EDGE Career Center, in concert with extraordinary faculty mentors, provide students with valuable skills and resources they need for a competitive advantage in their careers and when applying to top graduate schools. The student-faculty ratio is 11:1 and the average class size is 16 students. The College has grown to more than 60 major buildings on 126 acres, offers 54 areas of study to include majors, minors, pre-professional and other programs, and has an enrollment of nearly 1,500 students.

Randolph-Macon, a nationally ranked, selective, liberal arts College, has earned an outstanding reputation for its exceptional faculty, national and international internships, and study abroad and undergraduate research programs. The College’s unique January Term gives students the opportunity to concentrate on one course, study abroad or gain valuable career experience through an internship. The College also has numerous financial aid options available for students and their families, to include scholarships, which make a Randolph-Macon College education affordable.

Randolph-Macon is a proud member of the NCAA Division III and the Old Dominion Athletic Conference, and it sponsors 18 intercollegiate sports. Many of its teams and students are nationally ranked and have won national championships. The College also maintains a healthy Greek Life system and provides dozens of student organizations from which to choose. Most students are actively engaged in community service and outreach programs. R-MC students have raised thousands of dollars for community organizations.

27 2019 Senior Class Gift

The Senior Class Gift Campaign educates Randolph-Macon College seniors on the importance of philanthropy. By working in tandem with the Randolph-Macon Office of Annual Giving to create a student-driven fundraising campaign, the Senior Class Gift Committee aims to make the seniors’ first giving experience enjoyable and meaningful. The hope is that as a result, the seniors will recognize the importance of their generosity and continue the tradition of giving as alumni. Each senior was asked to make a donation to the College and the Class of 2019 Gift reflects the collective sum of all their contributions. The Class of 2019 raised over $10,790 from 85 percent of their class. Thank you to everyone who made this year’s campaign a success.
