Today is a highly anticipated occasion for all those who are a part of the Saint Leo community. Commencement celebrates the hard work, sacrifice, and perseverance of our graduates. While today marks the end of our time together as students and educators, it also symbolizes the beginning of a new chapter in our graduates’ lives. The completion of one’s college degree is truly a significant accomplishment. At Saint Leo University, our mission is to educate graduates who are critical thinkers and responsible citizens of the world. The students receiving degrees today have completed a rigorous course of study and now stand ready to make a difference in their careers and their communities. The possibilities for their futures are limitless, and we are excited to see all they will accomplish with their education. As they move toward a new future, our graduates can be assured that Saint Leo support and encouragement will continue throughout their lives. Today they officially become members of a closely connected alumni body that numbers more than 93,000 and embraces Saint Leo core values in all that they do. Wherever our graduates go from here, they will always have a home in their alma mater, Saint Leo University. 1 Mission Statement Saint Leo University is a Catholic, liberal arts-based university serving people of all faiths.

To accomplish its mission, the university community creates a student-centered environment in which the love of learning is of prime importance.

Senese Alma Mater (Please stand) Senior Ensemble Benediction Mrs. Mary B. Arnheiter Palazzo ’72 Trustee, Saint Leo University Recessional 6 Commencement Speaker Lynn Tepper, J.D. Former Judge, 6th Judicial Circuit of Florida For three decades, the Honorable Lynn Tepper served as a Circuit Judge in the 6th Judicial Circuit of Florida, where she sat in all divisions but primarily handled all eastern Pasco County (FL) cases involving child abuse and neglect, domestic violence, and family and juvenile delinquency. Prior to her election, Tepper served as an elected County Judge for four years in Pasco County. Throughout her career, Tepper has been an advocate for families, transforming her courtroom to better accommodate their needs. In 2001, she presided over the first Unified Family Court in Dade City, funded by a Florida Supreme Court grant. A Unified Family Court centers its operations around the needs of families, no matter which jurisdictional courthouse they enter. From 2012 to 2018, her court was one of only six in the nation to be selected by the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges (NCJFCJ) to implement Project ONE, a trauma-informed Unified Family Court. Tepper’s experience and expertise in handling domestic cases has garnered much attention, bringing in observers from across the nation and as far as Saudi Arabia to discern her practices. She has made appearances on several television programs—from a segment on ABC News’ Nightline called “Is Abuse an Excuse,” to a documentary on human trafficking in the Tampa Bay area, produced by WEDU-PBS. Tepper has dedicated her time to several committees and task forces, some of which include the Florida Supreme Court steering committee on families and children in courts and The Florida Bar Commission on the Legal Needs of Children. In recognition of her efforts, Tepper has received commendations from two Supreme Court chief justices. She is also the recipient of numerous awards, some of which include the 2008 Lifetime Achievement Award from the Florida Association of Community Corrections, the Humanitarian Hope Award from the National Alliance on Mental Illness Pasco County, and the James “Bud” Elliott Award from the East Pasco Bar Association. Tepper earned her Juris Doctor in 1977 from Stetson University College of Law at Gulfport, FL, and her bachelor’s degree in 1974 from Bard College in Annandale-on- Hudson, NY. 7 Presenting 2019 Degree Candidates Associate Degrees Salem Hamad Al-Mannai* Computer Information Systems Molly Marie Fehlberg Liberal Arts Jabir Almarri Accounting Matthew Tyler Anthony Herath Liberal Arts Abdulla Adel Almuhannadi Management Bachelor’s Degrees Hamad Khalifa Al-Naimi Cybersecurity Krista Marie Abel* Psychology: Developmental Zeida Alvarez Political Science Demian M.

    Claremont Coptic Encyclopedia 29 January 2016 DAYR AL-SURYAN: NEW DISCOVERIES Karel C. Innemée Keywords: Art, Iconography, Monasteries, Churches, Wādī al-Natrūn, Coptic, Syriac 1. Introduction 1.1. History of the monastery DAYR AL-SURYAN was founded by monks from the neighbouring DAYR ANBA BISHOI in the 6th century when a dispute over the human nature of the body of Christ caused a split in the community of that monastery. Those who held the orthodox view that Christ had a human body and therefore the Virgin Mary was his mother in the physical sense, left and founded a new community at a close distance. To underline their theological conviction, the monastery and its church were dedicated to the Holy Virgin. This Monastery of the Holy Virgin of Anba Bishoi became later known as the Monastery of the Syrians (Dayr al-Suryan), after a group of Syrian monks settled here. Until recently this was believed to have happened after a sale of the monastery to a group of Syriac monks at the beginning of the 8th century, but we now know this may have happened around or shortly after the year 800. Before 817, the monastery was attacked by Berbers and must have suffered considerable damage. The monastery was restored and surrounded by a defensive wall, probably with the support of the newly arrived Syrian monks. A mixed population of Coptic and Syrian monks inhabited the monastery from the ninth century onward. During the ninth and tenth centuries, the monastery collected an exceptionally rich library of Syriac (and later also of Arabic) manuscripts.

  • Saint Sebastian
    Saint Sebastian This article is about the Christian saint and martyr. For the United States Navy ship, see USS St. Sebastian (SP-470). “Saint Sebastien” redirects here. For other uses, see Saint-Sébastien (disambiguation). Saint Sebastian (died c. 288) was an early Christian saint and martyr. He was killed during the Roman em- peror Diocletian's persecution of Christians. He is com- monly depicted in art and literature tied to a post or tree and shot with arrows. Despite this being the most com- mon artistic depiction of Sebastian, he was, according to legend, rescued and healed by Irene of Rome. Shortly af- terwards he criticized Diocletian in person and as a result was clubbed to death.[1] He is venerated in the Catholic and Orthodox Churches. The details of Saint Sebastian’s martyrdom were first spoken of by 4th-century bishop Ambrose of Milan (Saint Ambrose), in his sermon (number 22) on Psalm 118. Ambrose stated that Sebastian came from Milan and that he was already venerated there at that time. Saint Sebastian is a popular male saint, especially among soldiers.[2][3] 1 Life Saint Sebastian Interceding for the Plague Stricken,[4] Josse Lieferinxe, 1497–1499, The Walters Art Museum According to Sebastian’s 18th century entry in Acta Sanc- torum,[5] still attributed to Ambrose by the 17th century hagiographer Jean Bolland, and the briefer account in the then brought the rest of the prisoners; these 16 persons 14th century Legenda Aurea, he was a man of Gallia Nar- were also converted by Sebastian.[6] bonensis who was taught in Milan and appointed a captain Chromatius and Tiburtius converted; Chromatius set all of the Praetorian Guard under Diocletian and Maximian, of his prisoners free from jail, resigned his position, and who were unaware that he was a Christian.

Abstract The messages in the imagery on Byzantine coins, although often neglected by scholars, were a key means of projecting imperial power. Emperors could project power via dress, ceremonial, and displays, but these methods would not have reached all subjects. Byzantine coins had the advantage of reaching all subjects, as the Byzantine economy was fundamentally monetized. Military symbols (figures, dress, and weapons), whose study has been rather overlooked, formed an important part of this imagery. Whilst military symbols disappeared from Byzantine coins in the early eighth century, and were absent for some three centuries, they were reintroduced in the mid-eleventh century and appeared until 1394/5.

Laiou and Roy Parviz Mottahedeh published by Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection Washington, D.C. © 2001 Dumbarton Oaks Trustees for Harvard University Washington, D.C. Printed in the United States of America www.doaks.org/etexts.html Art and Identity in the Medieval Morea Sharon E. J. Gerstel In 1204 the Frankish knight Geoffroy de Villehardouin arrived unexpectedly at the southwestern corner of the Peloponnesos. As Villehardouin’s uncle later noted in his chronicle: “It happened by chance that the wind carried his ship to the port of Methone [Modon], where it was so badly damaged that he was obliged to spend the winter in those parts.”1 Within a decade Villehardouin had conquered the Morea. In 1210 Pope Innocent III referred to him as the prince of Achaia.2 When, in that year, Villehardouin’s wife and son arrived from Champagne, he installed them in his residence in Kalamata and thereby confirmed his intentions to settle permanently in the region. Geoffroy’s second son, Guillaume II Villehardouin (1246–78), ruled over most of the Peloponnesos. But in 1261, as a result of his imprisonment following the battle of Pelagonia, Guillaume was forced to cede to Byzantium the southeastern Morea, a triangle of land demarcated by the castles of Maı¨na, Monemvasia, and Mistra (see Map).3 The barony of Geraki was turned over to the Byzantine Empire shortly thereafter. Although the Latin principality of the Morea survived the death of Guillaume II, the weak leadershipof Italian and Angevin landlords oversaw its decrease in size and power.

The Main Chapel of the Durres Amphitheater: Decoration and Chronology Abstract The amphitheater at Durres in central Albania is one of the larger and better preserved amphitheaters of the Roman world, as well as one of the eastern-most examples of the amphitheater form. Nonetheless, it is not for its Roman architecture that the building is best known, but its later Christian decoration, specifically, a series of mosaics which adorn the walls of a small chapel inserted into the amphitheater's Roman fabric. First published by Vangel Toçi in 1971, these mosaics were introduced to a wider scholarly audience through their inclusion in Robin Cormack's groundbreaking 1985 volume Writing in Gold.

  • The Cult of Saint László (Saint Ladislaus) in the Hungarian Army
    HADTUDOMÁNYI SZEMLE 13. évfolyam (2020) 1. szám 193–210. • DOI: 10.32563/hsz.2020.1.14 Lóránd Ujházi1 – Tibor Horváth2 The Cult of Saint László (Saint Ladislaus) in the Hungarian Army Szent László kultikus tisztelete a magyar „haderőben” Abstract Every July, in Letkés and Ipolyszalka (Slovakia), the St. László Division of the Comrade Union of Hungarian Parachutists commemorates – related to the King St. László festivals – Hungarian soldiers who served in the Division in the last months of WWII. The Division had nothing to do with the Waffen-SS nor with the armed corps of the Hungarist Movement.3 It was a part of the Royal Hungarian Defence Forces, which still kept some elements of old traditions. King László, compared to other supporter or branch patron saints, was a decisive hero to Hungarian soldiers until WWII and the establishment of the Soviet type bolshevik regime in Hungary. Although after the regime change, St. László was again recognised as ‘the patron saint of riflemen’, and from time to time he is commemorated with a mass or a concert,4 his influence remains far behind the period before WWII. In this study we are trying to get answers, why the cult of St. László – and other branch patron saints – has not developed in the Hungarian Defence 1 Nemzeti Közszolgálati Egyetem Hadtudományi és Honvédtisztképző Kar – National University of Public Service, Faculty of Military Sciences and Officer Training, e-mail:[email protected] , ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1630- 8208 2 Nemzeti Közszolgálati Egyetem Hadtudományi és Honvédtisztképző Kar – National University of Public Service, Faculty of Military Sciences and Officer Training, e-mail: [email protected], ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4742- 847X 3 Szent László hadosztály, in: Diós István (ed.), Magyar Katolikus Lexikon, Budapest, Szent István Társulat, 2007, XII, 887; Martin Kornél – Ugron István: Fejezetek a Szent László hadosztály történetéből, Hadtörténelmi Közlemények, 109 (1996/4) 56–132.
