culptor Jeanne L. Stevens-Sollman of Bellefonte, SPennsylvania, designed and crafted the mace and presidential chain of office used in Iowa State University’s formal academic ceremonies. The complementary pair of bronze and silver ceremonial items are on display in the Alumni Center as part of University Museums’ Art on Campus collection. The mace symbolizes the authority of the university president. The chief faculty marshal carries it at the head of the academic procession and, by placing it on its stand, signals the beginning of the ceremony. Created in bronze, silver, and tiger maple, Iowa State University’s mace is an interpretation of the campanile. The bronze headpiece features two campus landmarks – the Campanile and Christian Petersen’s Fountain of the Four Seasons–and a silver presidential seal inscribed with “Iowa State University–Science With Practice.” The tiger maple staff bears bronze plaques inscribed with the names of all previous Iowa State presidents and their years of service. The mace is 60 inches long and weighs 14 pounds.
The Presidential Chain of Office
he presidential chain of office symbolizes the rich Thistory and traditions of Iowa State University. It features an image of the Campanile on the front. On the back is a representation of Beardshear Hall, home to the president’s office. The columns of Beardshear form the shoulder epaulets, inscribed with “leadership” and “service.” The Campanile-inspired links in the presidential collar contain the words “engagement,” “learning,” “discovery,” and “access.” The reverse sides of the bronze sections feature low bas reliefs of corn. The mace and first presidential chain of office (“Monile Praesidis Maximus”) was commissioned by University Museums and the ISU Alumni Association in 2008. The second presidential chain (“Monile Praesidis Secundum”), a proportionally smaller version commissioned by University Museums in 2018, was supported by an anonymous donor and Carole A. and Roger E. Custer.

Candidates for Graduate Degrees
Graduate College Student Marshal
Nina Whitney Major: Geology and Environmental Science Hometown: Bowdoinham, Maine Nina Whitney earned a Ph.D. with dual majors in Geology & Environmental Science from Iowa State University. She came to ISU with a Bachelor of Arts from Carleton College and a Master of Science from the University of Maine. Nina’s dissertation advances our knowledge of past oceanographic and climatic conditions in the western North Atlantic Ocean by using nitrogen, oxygen, and radiocarbon isotopes in long-lived aquatic bivalve mollusks. Her use of geochemical signatures reveals changes in ocean conditions over the last millennia. While at Iowa State, Nina received numerous awards, including the 2016 Geological Society of America Gretchen L. Blechschmidt Award, the Best Student Talk Award at the 4th International Sclerochronology Conference, and multiple departmental awards. Her scholarship has been documented in many oral presentations and papers in refereed journals. Nina also filled various leadership roles at ISU, including as president of both the Environmental Science and Geology Graduate Student Organizations. Currently, Nina is a Visiting Assistant Professor at Carleton College. She has been offered a position as an NOAA Climate and Global Change Postdoctoral Fellow, working at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.
