As graduates you will be called upon to take similar prophetic positions, to be well­ informed, with alert intellects, with the search for truth leading you to act with conviction. To carry out these responsibili­ ties you have the support of your alma mater, of the 10,000 graduates who have taken seriously their education and carry out now their responsibility to speak and to act. In the rite of commencement your College addresses words to remind you of its expectations. It speaks to you also in those people it chooses to honor. Today Emmanuel sets before you the lives of four significant people - an Allan Crite whose legacy in the community of artists moved so many of the Emmanuel students earlier this year to see new faces in the world of President Sister Janet Eisner, SND, economy, of industry and business, nor the art; an Anna Harrison, a scientist whose delivers commencement remarks global issues of war and peace.

4 Commencement '83

If May is the time of year when Emmanuel looks its greenest, it is also the time when the College celebrates its most ancient rite - commencement. The conferring of de­ grees at Emmanuel is a rich and varied event, meaningful to all. Protocol is strictly observed and degree recipients are treated with the esteem and reverence to which they are rightly due. It is a day of pomp and ceremony. And beneath all the pageantry lie the connections which make such an occasion significant - connections between parents and daughters, between students and teachers, between friend and fri end. There is also a sense of connection be­ tween young and old, between new know­ ledge and long experience, between past and future. Waiting for the ceremonies to begin On Sunday, May 22 , Emmanuel College (left to right) Maureen Coffey, Margaret held its 61st commencement exercises. McKenna, and Jane Vallier Two hundred and eight degrees were awarded including 104 Bachelor of Arts, The Department of Ps ychology had the 78 Bachelor of Science, six Bachelor of highest concentration of undergraduate Fine Arts and 20 Master of Arts degrees. majors (17%), followed by the Department of Nursing (BSN degree completion pro­ gram for nurses, 12%); eleven percent of the undergraduates completed inter­ departmental majors. The Class of 1983 brings the total of Emmanuel graduates to 10,889. Sixty-five undergraduates, including one man, earned their degrees by attending Emmanuel's Division of Continuing Edu­ cation. The median age of Continuing Sister Mary T. Kelleher, outgoing Dean of Education graduates was 33. Students, receives tribute Emmanuel also conferred four Honor­ ary Degrees during its graduation exercis­ es. Recipients included Allan Rohan Crite, the distinguished, Boston artist, best known for his efforts to chronicle the black experience through his art; Patricia Graduate Dorothy Marra and family Albjerg Graham, PhD, Dean of the Har­ vard Graduate School of Education and Charles Warren Professor of the History of Education at ; Anna J.
