Commencement Mission Statement Commencement at Washington State University represents the culmination of a student's academic achievement. It is a time for celebration and reflection for students, families, faculty, and staff. It brings together the campus community to share the joy of the accomplished goals of our students.
The commencement ceremony at Washington State University serves a dual purpose: to mark a point of achievement, thus completing a chapter in the lives of students and those who support them, and to encourage continued pursuit of learning, personal fulfillment, and engagement with their local and worldwide communities.

ne of the satisfactions I have as president of Washington 0 State University is taking part in Commencement. Sharing in the joy of students reaching long-sought academic goals is a pleasure unlike any other, and I count participation in Commencement ceremonies as high points of each academic year.
When I view students, all wearing black caps and flowing gowns on the coliseum floor, you all look remarkably alike. But, I recognize that each of you is unique, with special talents and abilities as you reach this important milestone in life.
I am grateful for the University faculty's commitment to our students. They and you are the reason WSU is "World Class. Face to Face." As the years go by, I know you will reflect upon what you have learned at Washington State, a university of unequalled quality and commitment.
It is a privilege and honor to preside at your Commencement. I look forward to shaking your hand and wishing you well after you receive your diploma cover.
President V. Lane Rawlins Washington State University
The President's Medallion of Washirngton State University During commencement ceremonies and other special occasions, the president of Washington State University wears the President's Medallion. The round medallion features the WSU shield with Cougar head and links engraved with the names and dates of service for each past WSU president, starting with George Lilley, who served from 1891 to 1892, and ending with Samuel H. Smith, who served from 1985 to 2000. Blank links allow engraving of names and service years for future presidents. The medallion was created at the request of V. Lane Rawlins, who became president of WSU on June 8, 2000. He wore it for the first time during his inauguration on March 28, 2001. Spring 2001 was the first commencement that Rawlins wore the medallion.

2006 FALL COMMENCEMENT 13 ACADEMIC REGALIA
ACADEMIC REGALIA Academic regalia arose through evolution and modification of the robes worn by medieval students, who were usually clerics in the cathedral schools and monasteries established by the church. As early as 1321, a medieval statute required that all doctors, licentiates, and bachelors wear academic gowns and hoods. Gowns were necessary for warmth in the unheated medieval build ings, and hoods may have been designed to cover tonsured heads. Today, immediately after receiving a charter, new institutions adopt a distinctive design for academic attire expressive of their individuality.
On May 26, 1895, a group of institutional representatives met at Columbia University to establish a uniform code for academic regalia in this country.
The approved academic regalia is composed of a cap, gown, and hood. The basic article of the attire is the gown, which is usually black in color for all degrees. The basic design for gowns is similar for all degrees; minor variations in fullness and length of sleeves and trimming are indicative of degree levels. Cotton-poplin fabric is used for the bachelor's and master's gown, and ribbed rayon or silk is reserved for the doctor's gown.
The hood has become the colorful standard-bearer of academic symbolism. By examining the hood, an informed observer should be able to identify the degree level, the academic field of study in which the degree was earned, and the institution that conferred the degree. The hood is made of the same mate rial as the gown. Hood length varies according to degree: bachelor's-three feet, master's-three and a half feet, and doctor's-four feet. The color or colors of the hood lining indicate the institution that conferred the degree (crimson and gray for WSU). The hood is trimmed or edged in a border of velvet either two, three, or five inches in width for the respective degrees. The border color rep resents the faculty or field of study in which the degree was awarded. At WSU, bachelor's degree candidates do not wear hoods.
The approved cap of the academic costume is the mortarboard or Oxford cap-a stiff board nine inches square, usually covered in cotton poplin, Russell cord, or spun rayon, placed on a soft cap made of the same material and joined in a pointed design in front and back. The front of the cap is shorter than the back, but the color is always that of the gown and uniformly black for the four-year degrees. Soft, square-topped caps are permissible for women. The use of velvet has been reserved for the cap for the doctor's degree. A silk cord with a tassel made of many threads is attached to a button in the center of the board. The cord's and tassel's lengths may vary with the degree of the wearer. The tassel and cord may be black for any degree, but a gold metallic cord and tassel have been approved for the doctor's cap. The tassel may reflect the color of the field of study in which the degree was earned, and a few institutions use tassels of varied colors to indicate academic honors.
14 2006 FALL COMMENCEMENT COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER
illiam D. Ruckelshaus is highly respected for his public service, corporate W leadership, and help on community issues. He was the first (1970-1973) and fifth (1983-1985) administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as well as deputy attorney general and acting director of the FBI. He is a former senior vice president at Weyerhaeuser and former chairman/CEO of Browning Ferris Industries. Ruckelshaus currently serves as a strategic director in the Madrona Venture Group and a principal in Madrona Investment Group LLC, a Seattle-based investment company. He is widely known for leading efforts for salmon recovery. In October 2006, Washington State University and the University of Washington announced that the Policy Consensus Center, a joint collaboration between the two universities, would be renamed in Ruckelshaus's honor. The William D. Ruckelshaus Center addresses hard-to-resolve social, economic, and environmental issues. The renaming recognizes Ruckelshaus's life-long commitment to integrity and fair and sensible solutions. WSU President V. Lane Rawlins said that "not only can the center William D. Ruckelshaus respond to current issues, it can work with the spectrum of leaders and interests on items that will affect us in the future. By combining our institutional strengths through the Director, Madrona center, we can make a real difference." UW President Mark Emmert said that Ruckelshaus Venture Group "is one of those rare individuals that people from every sector, every political persuasion, Principal, Madrona and every point on the compass all trust for his integrity and problem-solving skill."

The words were written in 1814 by Francis Scott Key, who had been inspired by the sight of the American flag still flying over Fort McHenry after a night of heavy British bombardment. The text was immediately set to a popular melody of the time. At almost every occasion, only the first verse is sung. 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 rocket's 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? On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep, Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, now conceals, now discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam, In full glory reflected now shines on the stream: 'Tis the star-spangled banner! 0 long may it wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion A home and a country should leave us no more? Their blood has wiped out their foul footstep's pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave: And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand Between their loved homes and the war's desolation! Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven-rescued land Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation. Then conquer we must, for our case it is just, And this be our motto: "In God is our trust." And the star-spangled banner forever shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! 115674 11/06 Washington, My Washington Washington, My Washington The Crimson and the Gray, 'Tis the songs of memory That we sing toda½ W hen the sad hours come to you And sorrows 'round you play, Just sing the songs of Washington The Crimson and the Gray, Just sing the songs of Washington The Crimson and.the Gray.
