    2017 Annual Report 2017 Annual Letter To our fellow shareholders: Every now and then I am introduced to someone who knows, kind of, who I am and what I do and they instinctively ask, ‘‘How are things at Saga?’’ (they pronounce it ‘‘say-gah’’). I am polite and correct their pronunciation (‘‘sah-gah’’) as I am proud of the word and its history. This is usually followed by, ‘‘What is a ‘‘sah-gah?’’ My response is that there are several definitions — a common one from 1857 deems a ‘‘Saga’’ as ‘‘a long, convoluted story.’’ The second one that we prefer is ‘‘an ongoing adventure.’’ That’s what we are. Next they ask, ‘‘What do you do there?’’ (pause, pause). I, too, pause, as by saying my title doesn’t really tell what I do or what Saga does. In essence, I tell them that I am in charge of the wellness of the Company and overseer and polisher of the multiple brands of radio stations that we have. Then comes the question, ‘‘Radio stations are brands?’’ ‘‘Yes,’’ I respond. ‘‘A consistent allusion can become a brand. Each and every one of our radio stations has a created personality that requires ongoing care. That is one of the things that differentiates us from other radio companies.’’ We really care about the identity, ambiance, and mission of each and every station that belongs to Saga. We have radio stations that have been on the air for close to 100 years and we have radio stations that have been created just months ago.

  • Commencement Ceremonies
    THE UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER One Hundred and Eighteenth Annual Commencement Ceremonies SUNDAY, JUNE SECOND NINETEEN HUNDRED SIXTY-EIGHT In keeping with the nature of the ceremonies and in order that all may see and hear without distraction, it is requested that those in attendance refrain from smoking and conversation during the ceremonies and from moving onto the floor to take photographs. Your cooperation will be greatly appreciated. Academic Attire The distinctive attire of those participating in the academic procession represents a tradition that reaches at least as far back as the fourteenth century when gowns similar to today' s became the required dress at many European universities. Gow1u were then a common form of apparel for both the clergy and the laity but today they survive chiefly in eccle­ siastical or academic ceremonies such as the one we shall witness this afternoon. The symbolism of the American style of regalia is described below. Variations may be observed in the attire of the graduates of for­ eign universities and of the several American institutions which have departed from tradition. The gowns for the three levels of degrees differ primarily in the sleeve. The bachelor's gown has long pointed sleeves and is worn closed. The master's gown is usually worn open and has long square-cut sleeves with slits through which the forearms protrude. The doctor's gown has large bell-shaped sleeves with three velvet crossbars on the upper portion of the arm and velvet trimming down the front of the gown. The mor­ tarboard derives from the Oxford cap and is generally black with a black tassel, although color is sometimes used to indicate the field in which the degree was awarded.
