5 COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER

David R. Walt

Life Scientist, Professor, and Alumnus

Life scientist and University of Michigan alumnus David Walt, professor of pathology at Brigham and Women’s Hospital at Harvard Medical School, has revolutionized genetic and proteomic analysis with his groundbreaking research. He also is the Hansjörg Wyss Professor of Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University’s Wyss Institute and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Professor. Born in Detroit, Professor Walt moved to Southfield at age six. He earned a B.S. degree in chemistry (1974) from U-M, a Ph.D. in chemical biology (1979) from the State University of New York at Stony Brook, and did postdoctoral studies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He served on the Tufts University faculty from 1981 until joining Harvard in 2017. In 1996, Dr. Walt invented microwell arrays that were three billion times smaller than those previously used to track and screen cells. He subsequently developed random arrays with beads containing different DNA binding sequences. His innovations, now the gold standard for gene sequencing, accelerated the International HapMap Project’s success in identifying human genetic variations. Thousands of researchers worldwide are using the BeadArray platform commercialized by Illumina, a firm he founded, to improve food production, animal breeding, and human health, including determining causes of diabetes and a variety of cancers, among other diseases. Professor Walt also is the scientific founder of Quanterix Corp., which is having a similar impact on protein diagnostics, and co-founder of two other life science startups. He has published more than 300 papers and holds nearly 100 patents. Professor Walt is a member of U-M’s Life Sciences Institute Scientific Advisory Board and Leadership Council and has served on the Department of Chemistry Advisory Board and the College of Literature, Science & Arts Dean’s Advisory Council. He and his wife, Michele May, are members of the Victors for Michigan National Campaign Leadership Board and the New England Campaign Leadership Council. Together, they created the May-Walt Summer Chemistry Scholars Fund to support student research. He was named a Howard Hughes Medical Professor for his initiatives to improve science, technology, engineering, and math education, including programs that encourage undergraduate through postdoctoral researchers to work with and motivate K-12 students to study science. Currently a member of the National Cancer Institute External Alliance Steering Committee, Professor Walt co-chaired the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine Board on Chemical Sciences and Technology and recently co-chaired the National Academies Committee on a Vision for the Future of Center-Based Multidisciplinary Engineering Research. He is a member of the National Academy of Engineering and the National Academy of Medicine and a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering, and the National Academy of Inventors. He has been recognized with the American Chemical Society Award for Creative Invention and Kathryn C. Hach Award for Entrepreneurial Success, among other honors. Through his passion for discovery and success in commercializing new technologies, Dr. Walt demonstrates the power of science to advance knowledge and improve the human condition. He inspires students and colleagues with his research, entrepreneurship, and commitment to recruit young people into math and science, giving them the opportunity to bring new insights and information to light and contribute to the world’s well-being. The University of Michigan is delighted to welcome David R. Walt back to campus and proud to present him the honorary degree, Doctor of Science.

6 DISSERTATION CHAIRS

Doctoral dissertation research is conducted in consultation with a committee of faculty members selected by the candidate. The dissertation chair leads the committee and works closely with the student to guide the research. This collaboration is a fundamental relationship in the formation of scholars and so it is fitting that dissertation chairs of the doctoral graduates be asked to attend the ceremony and hood their students.

ACADEMIC DRESS AND CUSTOM

The colorful gowns and hoods worn by faculty members at commencement and other academic ceremonies represent the degrees, disciplines, and alma maters of the wearers. The American academic costume tradition, imported from England, dates to Colonial days. Gowns Bachelor’s or master’s degree gowns traditionally are black, as are many doctoral gowns in the United States. Some universities prescribe that their graduates wear gowns of another solid color such as blue, crimson, or green. Gowns differ in sleeve cut and trim. For example, the bachelor’s gown has long, pointed sleeves while the master’s gown has oblong sleeves. Doctoral gowns, with their distinctive bell-shaped sleeves, feature velvet panels down the front and around the neck, as well as crossbars of velvet on the sleeves. Colored trim denotes the field or discipline in which the degree was earned. Usually only a single degree from one institution is indicated by a garment. If more than one degree is held, the gown and hood of the higher or highest degree usually are worn. Hoods The hood most precisely describes the wearer’s level of degree earned, the major field of learning, and the alma mater. The level of the degree held is indicated by the hood’s shape and size and the width of its velvet or velveteen trimming. The bachelor’s, master’s, and doctor’s hoods are 36 inches, 42 inches, and 48 inches long, respectively. The velvet trim is two, three, and five inches wide, with the narrowest being for the bachelor’s hood and the widest for the doctor’s hood. The color of trim on the hood, as on the gown, identifies the major field of learning in which the degree was awarded. The hood is lined with the official colors of the college or university conferring the degree. Caps Caps vary in style from the traditional black mortarboard to eight-, six-, and four-corner tams, and Elizabethan-style caps. The mortarboard may be of any appropriate material, such as cotton, poplin, rayon, or silk, to match the gown. Velvet is reserved for holders of doctorates.

THE UNIVERSITY MACE

The University’s mace, a symbol of authority, is carried at the head of academic processions on such important ceremonial occasions as commencements, convocations, and inaugurations. The mace being used today was given to the University in 1968 by the Senior Board, representing all the undergraduate schools and colleges. Crafted of red oak and trimmed with silver, the mace features the seals of the University and of the State of Michigan. Also engraved on the mace are the names of the University Presidents.

11 SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES OF THE UNIVERSITY The order of presentation is by the year of founding.

College of Literature, The College of Literature, Science, and the Arts, founded in 1841, was the first Science, and the Arts duly constituted college of the University of Michigan. Today, with more than 15,000 undergraduate and 2,000 graduate students, LSA is the largest of the University’s schools and colleges, and it is still the heart of the campus. Distinguished in the humanities since its earliest years, the college became preeminent in the natural sciences during the early 20th century and went on to become a world leader in social science research. The college has always been dedicated to providing a richly diverse liberal arts education that prepares students to lead fulfilling lives as responsible citizens within a wide range of professional careers.

Medical School Since opening its doors in 1850, the Medical School has been a leader in medical education, patient care, and biomedical research. In addition to its professional doctor of medicine program, the Medical School offers master’s and doctoral degrees in the basic medical sciences. The school established the nation’s first university-owned and -operated teaching hospital and created the first departments of pharmacology and human genetics in the United States. It also played an important role in the development of the electrocardiogram and in the development of iodized salt as a goiter preventive. The Medical School was among the first major American medical schools to graduate women and African Americans; today there are more practicing M.D.s from the University of Michigan than from any other medical school in the United States.

Law School Founded in 1859, the Law School awarded its first bachelor of laws degrees in 1860. In 1870, the school became the second in the nation to confer a law degree on an African American candidate and the first major law school to admit a woman. In 1871, one of the school’s graduates became the first woman with a law degree to be admitted to the bar. A national law school from its earliest years, the school’s graduates work in every state of the union and in more than 73 countries, in business, as practitioners and professors, as legislators and members of Congress, and as distinguished civil servants and members of the judiciary.

School of Dentistry Established in 1875, the School of Dentistry first granted the professional degree, doctor of dental surgery, the following year. A national leader in the training of professional dentists and long active in oral and craniofacial research, the school offers the doctor of dental surgery, master’s degrees, and graduate clinical programs in several dental specialties and general dentistry. A doctoral degree is offered in oral health sciences and in an interdepartmental program in biomaterials. The School of Dentistry also offers baccalaureate and master’s programs in dental hygiene.

College of Pharmacy Established as a department in 1868, Pharmacy became a college in 1876, the first in any university in the United States. Today, the college has an average annual enrollment of 260 doctor of pharmacy and 70 graduate students, and is consistently ranked among the top pharmacy schools in the nation. The college offers the doctor of pharmacy degree; baccalaureate programs in medicinal chemistry and pharmaceutical sciences; and doctor of philosophy programs in medicinal chemistry, pharmaceutical sciences, and social and administrative sciences. Major areas of research include the biological, chemical, clinical, genomic, economic, and social aspects of drugs and therapeutic agents.

12 College of Engineering Instruction began with a class in civil engineering in 1854. Historically, the College of Engineering has been a leader in establishing departments in emerging fields, including metallurgical engineering, naval architecture and marine engineering, electrical engineering, chemical engineering, aeronautical engineering, nuclear engineering, and computer engineering. Today, the college and its 60,000 alumni provide leadership in various technologies, healthcare, business, and the sciences, improving the quality of people’s lives around the world.

Horace H. Rackham The Horace H. Rackham School of Graduate Studies oversees and coordinates School of Graduate graduate education, bringing together graduate students and faculty from across Studies the institution to experience and take full advantage of the University as a scholarly community. The University awarded its first master of arts degree in 1849, first master of science degree in 1859, and first doctor of philosophy degree in 1876. Organized as a department in 1892, the School of Graduate Studies became an autonomous unit in 1913. In 1935, a generous gift from Horace H. and Mary A. Rackham included the site and construction of the Rackham Building for graduate studies and a substantial endowment for carrying on graduate work and research.

A. Alfred Taubman Michigan offered its first courses in architecture in 1876. The program became College of Architecture a department in 1913, and by 1931, the College of Architecture was established and Urban Planning as a separate entity. During the 1940s, the college was one of the few schools in the country to consider research a necessary part of architectural education, and in 1946 it became the first to introduce a graduate program in urban planning. The college offers master of architecture, master of urban planning, and master of urban design degrees; bachelor of science and master of science degrees in architecture; and doctoral programs in architecture and in urban and regional planning. In 1999, the college was named in honor of A. Alfred Taubman, founder and chairman of The Taubman Company, Inc., and a longtime friend, supporter, and adviser to the college.

School of Education The School of Education was founded in 1921, 42 years after the University established the first chair in any United States collegiate institution devoted to the “science and art of teaching.” The school prepares students for professional careers in teaching and administration, and offers advanced training for researchers and practitioners at all levels of education. Teacher diplomas were first offered in 1874; the first master’s degree in education was conferred in 1891, the first Ph.D. in 1902, and the first Ed.D. in 1938.

Stephen M. Ross Building on faculty and course offerings that began in the latter part of the 19th School of Business century, the school was formally established in 1924. Today, at all levels of instruction—bachelor’s, master’s, doctoral, and executive education—its programs rank in the top five among American institutions. Each year nearly 1,000 new School of Business graduates enter careers as business professionals and teacher-scholars, joining the approximately 37,000 who already serve in leadership positions in business, government, and academic institutions throughout the world.

13 School for Environment The clear-cutting of Michigan’s densely forested wilderness was well under way and Sustainability when the University of Michigan began offering courses in forestry in 1881—the first university in the United States to do so. The year 1903 saw the creation of a Department of Forestry, forerunner of today’s School for Environment and Sustainability (SEAS). The school’s students and faculty organized the famous 1970 Teach-In on the Environment (the prototype of Earth Day), and incubated the scholarly disciplines of Environmental Justice, Environmental Education, and Environmental Informatics. From its inception as a forestry school to the interdisciplinary institution it is today, SEAS has always prepared leaders to understand and solve the major environmental challenges of the era.

School of Music, Consistently ranked among the top performing arts schools in the nation, and Theatre & Dance one of the oldest, the School of Music, Theatre & Dance is committed to creating an environment of educational and artistic excellence, nurturing creativity, academic integrity, and professionalism in its students and faculty. With degrees offered at the bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral levels, the School is deeply engaged in the creation, practice, scholarship, and pedagogy of music, theatre, and dance. It fosters a spirit of social responsibility and principled entrepreneurship, and serves the community and state of Michigan through public performances, cultural resources, arts education, and outreach programs.

School of Nursing The University of Michigan School of Nursing (UMSN) is an international leader in the advancement of nursing knowledge and strategies to improve health care. In addition to the four-year BSN program and the second career in nursing program, UMSN has a robust offering of graduate programs. Students are prepared to be leaders in advanced clinical practice through our M.S.N. and post-baccalaureate Doctorate of Nursing Practice (DNP) programs. Students can also lead and effect change through the M.S.N. or post-masters DNP programs in systems, populations and leadership. UMSN’s prestigious Ph.D. and postdoctoral programs prepare nurse scientists to develop the knowledge necessary to support and advance nursing practice.

School of Public Health Founded in 1941 and ranked among the country’s top public health schools, the University of Michigan School of Public Health educates more than 1,000 graduate and undergraduate students each year. With over 170 faculty and researchers across six departments and numerous collaborative centers and institutes, the school brings interdisciplinary, innovative solutions to complex health challenges, including chronic and infectious diseases, obesity and food insecurity, health care quality and cost, climate change and environmental factors, and socioeconomic inequalities and their impact on health. Compassion, innovation, and inclusion drive the faculty, staff, students, and 15,000 alumni of Michigan Public Health to pursue positive change and lasting impact on the health of the world.

School of Social Work The program in social work began in 1921, and was granted the status of a school in 1951. Faculty maintain high research productivity while teaching an innovative curriculum. At the master’s level, the school prepares professional practitioners for work with individuals, children and their families, the aged, organizations, and communities. Students may focus their studies in the fields of substance abuse, mental health, education, child welfare, program evaluation, and public policy. The joint doctoral program in social work and social science is one of a kind and prepares students for academic and research careers. Graduates of both programs are found in leadership positions around the world. The School of Social Work consistently ranks as one of the best in the nation.

14 School of Information A formal program began in 1926, when the Department of Library Science was created in the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts. In 1948, offerings became entirely graduate and a doctoral program was inaugurated. Establishment of an independent school, committed to the interdisciplinary study of information and library principles, came in 1969. In response to the rapid change brought on by present technology, the school broadened significantly further in the 1990s. It now pursues a highly interdisciplinary approach to educate professionals who will serve as leaders in the information age. Recognizing this broader mission, the school was renamed the School of Information in 1996.

Penny W. Stamps The Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design traces its history at the University School of Art & Design to visual arts education in the late 19th century, awarding its first degree in 1960, and becoming a University of Michigan school in 1974. In 2002, the school launched a unique curriculum that prompted the National Association of Schools of Art and Design to report, “The School of Art & Design and the University of Michigan have created an opportunity to lead the academic conversation in art and design in this country.” The school prepares graduates for a broad range of creative professions through its undergraduate and graduate programs. Commitment to the integration of art and design, community engagement, international experience, connections to the academic resources of the University, interdisciplinary pursuit, and public presentation of creative work are required of all majors.

School of Kinesiology Kinesiology has been part of the University of Michigan curriculum since the turn of the 20th century and joined the ranks for the schools and colleges as an independent unit in 1984. Concentrations have the common thread of human movement and span a wide range including movement science, physical education, sport management, and athletic training. Kinesiology prepares undergraduates for careers as diverse as medicine and physical therapy to athletic administration, marketing, and law. Master’s and doctoral students expand their opportunities in higher education, research, health care, public health or medicine, business, and law.

Gerald R. Ford School The School of Public Policy prepares graduates for distinguished careers in of Public Policy policy analysis and management, and promotes improved public policy through research. Its curriculum combines rigorous grounding in contemporary social science, opportunities to develop expertise in a variety of policy domains, and practical experience. Graduates work in government and the private and nonprofit sectors, using their knowledge, judgment, and new ideas to solve social problems, both domestic and international. The school traces its history to the Institute of Public Administration, established in 1914 as one of the first programs in municipal administration in the United States. In 1999, the regents approved the naming of the school in honor of Gerald R. Ford, the 38th President of the United States and a 1935 graduate of the University.

51 52 Statement on Freedom of Speech and Artistic Expression Thank you for attending this program. The University of Michigan strives to create a truly open forum, one in which diverse opinions can be expressed and heard. It is the right of members of the University community, speakers, artists, and other invited guests to express their views and opinions at the University. We will protect the right of individuals to speak or perform, and the rights of those members of the University community who wish to hear and communicate with an invited speaker or artist. Protesters also have a right to express their opposition to a speaker in appropriate ways, both within the confines of this building and outside the facility. However, protesters must not interfere unduly with communication between a speaker or artist and members of the audience. If the hosts of this event or University representatives believe that protesters are interfering unduly with a speaker or performer’s freedom of expression, those protesters will be warned. If the warnings are not heeded and the interference continues, then the individuals responsible may be removed from the building. We reaffirm these policies in order to most fully protect the rights of free expression for speakers, performers, and protesters alike, as set forth by our Civil Liberties Board in our Student Handbook, and in accordance with the U-M Standard Practice Guide; Regents’ Ordinance Article XII, Section 1; and state statutes.

Nondiscrimination Policy Statement The University of Michigan, as an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer, complies with all applicable federal and state laws regarding nondiscrimination and affirmative action. The University of Michigan is committed to a policy of equal opportunity for all persons and does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, marital status, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, disability, religion, height, weight, or veteran status in employment, educational programs and activities, and admissions. Inquiries or complaints may be addressed to the Senior Director for Institutional Equity, and Title IX/Section 504/ADA Coordinator, Office for Institutional Equity, 2072 Administrative Services Building, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-1432, 734-763-0235, TTY 734-647- 1388, [email protected].
