Commencement One Hundred and Forty-eighth Commencement May 8, 2021 3. History of Shepherd University hen the county seat of Jefferson County, West Virginia, was moved from Shepherdstown to Charles Town in July 1871, Wthe people in the area decided to use the vacant courthouse for educational purposes. An article of incorporation for a school to be known as Shepherd College, designed to instruct students “in languages, arts, and sciences,” was drawn up by the Board of Trustees. Joseph McMurran, principal, and two assistant professors were hired to teach the 42 students who began classes in September 1871. On February 27, 1872, the state legislature passed an act which made the private institution a part of the state college system. In 1930, Shepherd became a four-year college dedicated to the training of teachers and was accredited to grant the Bachelor of Arts degree. A liberal arts program was approved in 1943, and in 1950 the Bachelor of Science degree was added. In 2004, Governor Bob Wise signed legislation allowing Shepherd College to change its name to Shepherd University. Shepherd serves 3,800 students and offers the following degrees: Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Fine Arts, Bachelor of Arts in elementary education, Bachelor of Arts in secondary education, Bachelor of Arts in early education, Bachelor of Music Educa- tion, Bachelor of Music in Performance, Regents Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Bachelor of Social Work, Master of Arts, Master of Business Administration, Master of Arts in Teaching, Master of Science, and Doctor of Nursing Practice.

Dr. Robert Scott Beard Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs In Memorium r. Robert Scott Beard enjoyed a career in higher education that spanned more than 20 years, in both the field of music and Din administration. A full professor in Shepherd University’s School of Music, Dr. Beard served as coordinator of keyboard studies from 1998- 2011. He was named the interim dean of graduate studies in 2010, becoming dean in fall 2011, at which time the title associate vice president of academic affairs was added to the position responsibilities. This title was later changed to associate provost in summer 2016. He assumed the position of provost in fall 2017. His responsibilities have included oversight of all graduate programs, as well as oversight of institutional and program- matic accreditation. Responsibilities also included cyclical program reviews, development of new degree program proposals, and representing academic affairs on campus committees, including strategic planning, student success, commencement, and diversity and equity. A major accomplishment during this time was the successful implementation of Shepherd’s first doctoral program, the Doctor of Nursing Practice (D.N.P.), as well as Shepherd’s first certificate program at the graduate level in Appa- lachian studies. Recognized for his outstanding teaching abilities, Dr. Beard was named 2006 West Virginia Music Teacher of the Year and was runner-up for West Virginia Professor of the Year in 2009. His students have won prizes in state, regional, national, and international competitions, and have gone on to study music at conservatories and major university music schools. Concerts as a soloist, chamber musician, and orchestral soloist took him throughout the United States and seven countries. Recital appearances included Weill Recital Hall, the Tenri Cultural Institute (NYC), as well as numerous embassies and univer- sities. His concerts have been praised for their poetry, passion, and innovative programming. Dr. Beard was an active member of Music Teachers National Association (MTNA) and was a former national board member, having served as director of the Eastern Division of MTNA. He also served as the artistic director for the Washington Opera Society. He has published a number of book and musical material reviews, co-authored and edited six editions of ensemble music for Alfred publishing, and a textbook on keyboard proficiency with Oxford University Press. Dr. Beard’s extraordinary accom- plishments and dedication to the pursuit of excellence are indeed remarkable, and will be remembered by his students, friends, and colleagues—in perpetuity. 5.
