4 Commencement Speaker: Lieutenant Governor Barbara O’Brien Lt. Gov. Barbara O’Brien was elected in November 2006 as the running mate of Gov. .

As Colorado’s 47th lieutenant governor, O’Brien is actively involved in education, health and wellness, and aerospace issues. She serves as co-chair of the Governor’s P-20 Education Council, which oversees education reform and innovation from preschool to postsecondary education. In addition, she is working with the Metro Denver Health and Wellness Commission and LiveWell Colorado, a public-private partnership to encourage small steps toward healthier habits in schools, workplaces and communities.

Lt. Gov. O’Brien also co-chairs the Colorado Space Coalition, a group of business, government and military representatives who support and promote Colorado’s aerospace industry, the second largest in the country. In this capacity, O’Brien actively promotes science, technology, engineering and math education to prepare Colorado’s next generation of aerospace workers. She also currently chairs the Education Committee for the Aerospace States Association.

A longtime advocate for young children and teens, O’Brien has a history of creating and implementing innovative policy initiatives in both health and education. From 1990 until 2006, she served as president of the Colorado Children’s Campaign, a statewide public policy and advocacy nonprofit organization. Under her leadership, the campaign produced ajorm policy initiatives that increased funding for schools, expanded early childhood education, increased access to health care for uninsured children, reduced teen smoking and expanded after-school programs. She co-chaired the Amendment 35 (tobacco tax increase) campaign committee and was a leader in the effort to get Amendment 23 (K-12 school funding) approved.

In addition to the Colorado Children’s Campaign, O’Brien has served on the Mayor’s Leadership Team on Early Education, the Governor’s Commission on Children and Families, the National Kids County Steering Committee and the Tony Grampsas Youth Services Fund. She also founded and co-chaired the Kids Caucus, a bi-partisan group of state legislators committed to supporting policies that benefit children.

O’Brien was a policy advisor and speechwriter for Gov. Richard Lamm in the 1980s. She also has significant experience in higher education, having served as the University of Colorado Denver’s director of campus affairs and executive director at its Institute for International Business.

O’Brien earned her bachelor’s degree from the at Los Angeles and her doctorate from Columbia University.

5 Metro State: A Bold Goal of Preeminence Established in 1965, Metropolitan State College of Denver enrolls nearly 22,000 students, the second-largest undergraduate student population in Colorado. In 2005, Metro State set the ambitious long-term goal of becoming the preeminent public urban baccalaureate college in the nation, toward which it already has made significant progress.

Metro State is steadfast in its mission to provide students from all walks of life with a high-quality education that prepares them for rewarding careers, postgraduate education and lifelong learning in a multicultural, global and technological society. With a commitment to diversity as a core value, Metro State is proud to enroll more students of color than all other four-year institutions in Colorado.

Metro State empowers students to create their own success by providing relevant, enriching and individualized academic experiences. Unique attributes of the College include outstanding, committed faculty with a passion for teaching; student-centered learning; a personalized classroom experience with more student/faculty interaction; and real-world, 21st century career preparation through a blend of theory and applied learning.

The College boasts accomplished professors who are known nationally in their respective fields, including Associate Professor of Aviation and Aerospace Science Kevin Kuhlmann, who received the international Wheatley Award from the University Aviation Association; adjunct faculty member and composer Leanna Kirchoff, whose choral piece, “Meciendo” received the 2007 Sorel Medallion in an international competition that culminated with a performance at Carnegie Hall; and Interim Deputy Provost and Chicana/o Professor Luis Torres, who received the Educational Leadership Award from Escuela Tlatelolco.

Metro State students are making a name for themselves as well. Our students are routinely selected for nationally competitive study-abroad scholarships and win regional and national awards in myriad academic areas such as theatre, piloting and accounting. For instance, Metrosphere, the College’s student-produced literary magazine, received a 2007 Associated Collegiate Press Pacemaker Award, considered by many to be student journalism’s highest honor. The weekly television broadcast, Met Report, won the Emmy for Student Achievement at the Heartland Regional Emmy Awards. And the Metro State Flight Team once again qualified to compete at the national SAFECON competition.

The Class of 2008 joins the ranks of 61,000 proud Metro State alumni, the vast majority of whom remain in Colorado to live and work as our teachers, nurses, accountants, pilots, law enforcement officials, social workers and high-tech employees. Metro State graduates run businesses, labor in the non-profit world and serve in government at the local and state levels.

Metro State graduates are achieving their dreams. Roger Foster (’86, civil engineering technology) is vice president of the URS corporation in Atlanta and has managed airport expansion programs at Richmond International, Newark International and Fort Lauderdale International airports. Col. Laura Jane Richardson (’86, psychology) is the first female commander of Ft. Myer. Katherine Archuleta (’71, education) is the senior policy advisor to Denver Mayor .

The accomplishments of our students and graduates, and the better lives that education brings them, are a great source of pride for Metro State and are an integral part of the foundation on which we are building a national reputation for preeminence.

7 Academic Attire Academic attire is modeled after monks’ clothing from the Middle Ages, when college faculty and students were members of religious orders. In England, the faculty of many colleges and universities still wear gowns, hoods and caps in the classroom.

In the early 20th century, colleges and universities throughout the world adopted guidelines for the design and colors of academic attire. An institution may design and register special attire for its administrators and graduates, but it must conform to certain standards. Once registered, the design/ color combination may not be duplicated by other institutions.

The bachelor’s gown is most often black and has long sleeves that taper to a point in the back. It is worn closed. At Metro State, women do not wear a white collar with the gown. The hood worn by the President’s Award recipient is a Metropolitan State College of Denver bachelor’s degree hood and is worn by this student to represent the graduating class.

The gown signifying the master’s degree is also usually black and may be worn open or closed. It features oblong sleeves that hang below the wrist, tapering to a square cut with a cutaway arc.

Although usually black, the doctoral gown is sometimes seen in colors—usually gold, purple, blue or red. The gown may be worn open or closed. The opening of the gown is faced with velvet and three velvet chevrons run across its bell-shaped sleeves. The velvet facing and chevrons may be black or the color representing the field of study.

The hood varies in length and shape according to the degree it represents—the shortest and smallest signifies the bachelor’s degree and the longest and widest signifies the doctoral degree. The velvet bordering the hood represents the degree field of study. The colors most frequently seen at Metro State are royal blue – Philosophy; light blue – Education; yellow – Science; green – Medicine.

The satin lining of the hood, each a specific design, represents the college or university at which the individual earned his or her degree.

The Oxford Cap, or mortarboard as it is better known, completes the attire. In place of the hood, bachelor’s candidates at Metro State wear colored tassels on the Oxford Cap to represent the academic department of the College from which they earned their degrees. Those holding graduate degrees usually wear black tassels, but those holding doctoral degrees may wear tassels of gold thread, and may elect to wear a four-sided or eight-sided velvet tam instead of the Oxford Cap. Some universities have designated the Cambridge Cap, a large, soft beret, for their administrators and those who have earned a doctoral degree at that institution.

Insignias worn by honor graduates and members of honor societies

You will notice that some of our graduates are wearing one or more cords, stoles or medallions of various colors or designs about the neck of their gowns to represent high academic achievement. Those graduates who have achieved overall excellence are recognized by the College through three areas of distinction:

Summa Cum Laude (with highest praise) Gold and blue cord Magna Cum Laude (with great praise) Silver and blue cord Cum Laude (with praise) Bronze and blue cord

Honors Program The College encourages students to enroll in and complete an especially rigorous course of interdisciplinary study in addition to the indi- vidual’s major and minor study degree requirements. This course of study is known as the Honors Program.
