SOUTHERN METHODIST UNIVERSITY
Ninety-Fourth Annual
COMMENCEMENT CONVOCATION
Saturday Morning The Sixteenth of May Two Thousand and Nine at Half Past Nine
MOODY COLISEUM
SOUTHERN METHODIST UNIVERSITY
In 1911, a Methodist education commission made a commitment to establish a major Methodist university in Texas. More than 600 acres of open prairie and $300,000 pledged by a group of Dallas citizens secured the university for Dallas, and it was chartered as Southern Methodist University. In appreciation of the city’s sup port, the first building to be constructed on the campus was named Dallas Hall. It remains the centerpiece and symbol of SMU. When the University opened in 1915, it consisted of two buildings, 706 students, a 35-mem ber faculty, and total assets of $636,540. The original schools of SMU were the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Theology, and the School of Music.
SMU is owned by the South Central Jurisdiction of the United Methodist Church. The first charge of its founders, however, was that it become a great university, not necessarily a great Methodist university. From its founding, SMU has been nonsectarian in its teaching and committed to the values of academic freedom and open inquiry.
Today, Southern Methodist University offers a comprehensive curriculum through Dedman College – the college of humanities and sciences – and six schools: Meadows School of the Arts, Edwin L. Cox School of Business, Bobby B. Lyle School of Engineering, Perkins School of Theology, Dedman School of Law, and Annette Caldwell Simmons School of Education and Human Development.
The University offers over 100 undergraduate majors, Master’s degrees in over 100 areas, professional degrees in two disciplines, Ph.D. degrees in 25 fields, and 25 certificate programs.
Enrollment for the 2008-2009 academic year was 12,159, including 6,645 under graduate students and 5,514 graduate and professional school students. SMU students come from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and 102 countries. About 77 percent of first-year students received some form of financial assistance for 2008-2009. About 21 percent of the student body are minorities; 59 percent of undergraduates and 48 per cent of graduate students report religious affiliation; 11 percent are Methodist, 13 percent are Roman Catholic. Also represented in the student body are other Protestant denomina tions and other religions, including Judaism, Buddhism, and Islam.
In addition to preparing students for graduate and professional schools, or more directly for their life’s work, the University strives to enhance their social, moral, intellectual, and religious development so that they may lead worthy lives as individuals and citizens of the nation and of the world.
4 THE HISTORY OF ACADEMIC PROCESSION AND REGALIA
The academic procession and the regalia worn by the faculty and officers of the University symbolically represent the continuing link between the modern American university and the founding of the great medieval universities in Europe – chief among them Bologna, Paris, and Oxford. As those institutions were derived from the Catholic Church, the universities adopted many of the ceremonial trappings of the church in their official public functions.
The mace of the University, a symbol of the authority vested in the president by the Board of Trustees and representing the covenant between the president and the faculty, is borne by the president of the Faculty Senate. Though the order of the procession varies from university to university, at SMU it proceeds from the Chief Marshal through the ranks of the faculty and the officers of the University to the president, who is preceded by the mace-bearer.
The caps and gowns worn in the procession also vary from place to place. There are variations in design to indicate the degrees held by the wearers, and many universities in America have introduced colorful gowns and other distinguishing details (in place of the customary clerical black from which all originated). The caps, too, vary according to the customs of the university from which the wearer received a degree. While most American universities adopted the “mortarboard” style of Oxford, others have chosen styles based on other European institutions. The color of the tassel worn with the cap may be black for any degree, or the color may be that of the faculty of the major field of learning (e.g., Arts, Engineering, Law, etc.). Persons holding doctoral degrees and governing officials of institutions are entitled to wear tassels of gold metallic thread.
Within the great varieties of styles and colors in gowns and caps, there has been one universally accepted code for the hood worn trailing down the wearer’s back. Originally, it was like the hood on the habit worn by monks and very useful for protection against the weather and even for begging for alms. Nowadays, the hood through length and color shows the degree and the specialization of the wearer, and the university that granted the degree.
Through these colorful ceremonies, SMU symbolically displays the continuity of its educational purposes with the origins of organized learning in the Western world.

SOUTHERN METHODIST UNIVERSITY’S CUSTOM REGALIA
Candidates for degrees at SMU are robed in custom regalia, inaugurated in 2009, specially designed to incorporate SMU’s colors and symbols.
The Doctoral gown in dark blue includes velvet chevrons on each of the bell sleeves. The gown is marked by velvet panels down the front and around the neck. The front panels are embroidered in gold thread with the SMU seal, and gold braid outlines the chevrons and panels. It is cut much fuller than the other gowns and may be ornamented in color. Replacing the traditional mortarboard, an eight-sided, crimson red velvet tam with a gold silk tassel completes the regalia.
5 The Master’s gown, also in dark blue, has a front yolk outlined in red braid and the SMU seal is embroidered in red on the left side. Like traditional Master’s robes, gowns are arranged so that the arm emerges from a long sleeve through a slit at the wrist. A mortarboard with a colored tassel representing the discipline in which the degree is earned is also worn.
Doctoral and Master’s candidates wear hoods which are 3 ½ feet, and 4 feet long, respectively. The velvet trimming in the same order is 3 and 5 inches wide. The color of the trim identifies the faculty. A partial list of faculty colors follows: Arts, Letters, Humanities – White; Music – Pink; Business – Drab; Philosophy – Dark Blue; Engineering – Orange; Science – Golden Yellow; Fine Arts – Brown; Theology – Scarlet; Law – Purple. The lining of the hood – the portion most visible from the rear – indicates the institution awarding the degree. SMU’s hood lining is blue with a red chevron.
The Bachelor gown in dark blue has the traditional characteristics of a Bachelor robe including full front pleats, and balanced fluting. Its distinguishing characteristic is the long pointed sleeves. A red silk stole embroidered in blue with the SMU seal is worn across the shoulders. Bachelor gowns are worn with a tassel and mortarboard.
SMU’s regalia visually honor the University’s traditions and spirit which we celebrate this morning.
THE HOWARD LANTERN
The Howard Lantern is dedicated to Professor Lorn Lambier Howard, Chief Marshal Emeritus of SMU from 1978-1987, in honor of his role in shaping the traditions and protocol of SMU’s modern-day academic ceremonies. Designed in 2008 and crafted out of steel, aluminum and water glass, the lantern symbolizes the Rotunda of Dallas Hall, the University’s oldest building and centerpiece of our campus. Engraved around the top band is the University’s motto, “veritas liberabit vos,” which means “the truth will make you free.” Around the base are the words to Varsity, SMU’s alma mater. Each year during the May Baccalaureate Service this lantern is handed down by the Senior Class President to a representative of the Junior Class, a symbolic passing of the light that sustains our University. The Howard Lantern serves as a reminder of the important traditions which make up our corporate University life and of the light of learning and intellectual curiosity which shines within the students, faculty and staff here at SMU.

LAURA WELCH BUSH
Former First Lady Laura Welch Bush earned a B.A. in elementary education from SMU in 1968 and a Master's degree in library science from the University of Texas at Austin. She was an elementary school teacher and librarian before marrying George W. Bush in 1977. As First Lady of Texas from 1995-2001, she was a strong advocate for education and literacy and established the Texas Book Festival in 1995. While First Lady of the United States from 2001-09, Mrs. Bush became involved in global issues related to education, health care and human rights. In 2001 she convened a Summit on Early Childhood Cognitive Development and joined with the Library of Congress to launch the National Book Festival. Mrs. Bush also led President Bush's Helping America's Youth initiative. In the international arena, she called attention to the plight of women in Afghanistan and the broader Middle East, and she helped raise global awareness of breast cancer and heart disease in women. She hosted world leaders for the White House Conference on Advancing Global Literacy in 2006 and currently serves as Honorary Ambassador for the United Nations Literacy Decade. At SMU, the Laura Bush Promenade, a garden and sitting area outside Fondren Library Center, was provided in 1999 by then Governor Bush to honor his wife’s contributions to libraries and literacy. Mrs. Bush received SMU’s Distinguished Alumni Award in 1999 and was elected to the Board of Trustees in 2000.

THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER
Oh, say can you see, by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
VARSITY
Oh we see the Varsity,
Varsity, Varsity,
As she towers o’er the hill
Over there.
And our hearts are filled with joy,
SMU, SMU,
Alma Mater, we’ll be true
Forever!
