A MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN recent survey of scholars ranked the Elliott School’s undergraduate and graduate programs in the top 10. Only five schools in the world were ranked this highly in A both categories. It’s an impressive club. It’s also an important club. The issues we study at the Elliott School—ranging from war and peace to poverty and development—affect the lives of billions of our fellow human beings. Powerful international dynamics—population growth, rising levels of resource consumption, the expansion of the global economy, mounting environmental challenges—will shape the world in the decades ahead. Wise policy and effective international cooperation will be more important than ever. At the Elliott School, the study of international affairs is not an abstract exercise. Our aim is to make our world a better place. The Elliott School is in a unique position to make a difference.

  • 2020 Graduation Celebration Saturday, May 16, 2020
    THE GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY 20 20 2020 GRADUATION CELEBRATION SATURDAY, MAY 16, 2020 Undergraduate Programs 2020 GRADUATION CELEBRATION SATURDAY, MAY 16, 2020 SEAL OF THE COLUMBIAN COLLEGE In 1819, the Reverend Luther Rice, Obadiah B. Brown, Spencer H. Cone, and Enoch Reynolds (all Baptist ministers) set in motion the reality of a college in the District. These men raised the needed funds to purchase land in the nation’s capital, petitioned the Congress for a charter, and began organizing a college. On February 9, 1821, President James Monroe signed the Act of Congress which created the College. By design of the Congress, a special provision was included which required that “persons of every religious denomination shall be capable of being elected Trustees; nor shall any person, either as President, Professor, Tutor or pupil, be refused admittance, or denied any of the privileges, immunities, or advantages thereof, for or on account of his sentiments in matters of religion.” The original seal was designed by James Peale in 1821, at the time of the founding of the Columbian College. This is the seal that the graduates are wearing today as medals. The seal features a Biblical lion lying down with a lamb and Greek text in an open book. The Greek translates to “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God.” In 1873, the name Columbian College was changed to Columbian University and the seal was changed slightly to reflect this. The Latin text around the outside was changed from “Columbiani Collegii” to “Universitatis Columbianae Sigillim.” In addition, some text was added to fill up the rest of the open book, since the Greek phrase only took up part of one page.
