1 LINDENWOOD UNIVERSITY COMMENCEMENT BRIEF HISTORY

Welcome to Lindenwood University and to one of the most important ceremonial occasions of the academic year. Filled Lindenwood was founded in 1827 by Mary Easton Sibley (1800-1878) and George C. Sibley (1782-1863), making it the with tradition and symbolism, Lindenwood’s commencement ceremony reminds us of the noble purpose of colleges and second oldest institution of higher learning west of the Mississippi River, and the institution was incorporated by the universities and foreshadows our graduates’ future successes. Missouri Legislature in 1853. The Sibleys deeded the Lindenwood property to the St. Louis Presbytery on February 24, 1853, the start of a formal affiliation with the Presbyterian Church that lasted over a century. Academic customs originated within the medieval Church. One such tradition, the academic dress worn by the students, faculty, boards, and platform party, is described later in this program. Another tradition, the academic mace, While Lindenwood is fully independent today, the university enjoys a historical relationship with the Presbyterian Church symbolizes the president’s authority. President John Roemer, who served Lindenwood from 1914-1940, commissioned and remains true to its founding values. The first commencement ceremony was held in 1858, and Lindenwood became the mace proudly displayed at the front of the stage. The mace is a staff of linden wood surmounted by a silver cup, and co-educational in 1969. Evening programs were established in 1972, and graduate studies were instituted in 1975. Lindenwood only brandishes it on special occasions where the faculty and president are conducting a formal proceeding. Lindenwood became a university in 1997, a regional university in 2003, and a doctoral institution in 2007. To complete the rich blend of time and community, the mace is flanked on the platform by the flag of the United States of America and by the Lindenwood University flag. The university has experienced dynamic growth over the past three decades. Lindenwood not only evolved into a university but also grew from a student population of 800 residential students to more than 2,000 today, a total annual Honors offer another example of classic symbolism. At commencement, a university typically bestows three types of enrollment of more than 10,000, and a St. Charles campus of approximately 200 acres. Latin honors. In order of increasing honor, they are as follows: Cum Laude, “with praise”; Magna Cum Laude, “with great praise”; and Summa Cum Laude, “with highest praise.” Lindenwood offers three additional forms of recognition. University Honors recognizes students who graduate with a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.3 and complete at least eight The Sibley Crest, as reproduced on the program cover, was adopted as the official seal of Lindenwood sometime before courses with Honors distinction, Community Service Honors recognizes students who complete 500 honors of qualified the institution’s centennial anniversary in 1927. The griffin represents vigilance and eagerness in pursuit. The crescent community services, and Veteran Honors recognizes graduates who served in the U.S. Armed Forces. moons signify one who has been enlightened and honored by the Sovereign. The two halves of the shield represent loyalty and truth, fortitude, and magnanimity. During Lindenwood’s Commencement ceremony, the candidates for degrees are presented to the president by the university’s executive administrative officers. Each student’s name is read, and the president congratulates the new graduate. The student is also congratulated by the academic dean of their program. Once all degrees have been recognized, the participants will be released as the newest graduates of Lindenwood University.

First ladies and now gentlemen we will hold your values high, And we vow to keep traditions of scholarship and pride. Lindenwood oh Lindenwood proudly do we sing, Honor, truth, and dignity in our hearts shall ring. Lindenwood oh Lindenwood loyalty to you, Solid as our gates we stand, alma mater true.
