Final Degree Audits Degree completion and honor designations are contingent upon final degree audits. Because the names must be provided to the printer in final form several days prior to commencement, one or more candidates listed herein may have been unable to complete all requirements for the degree. Inability to remove a name at the last moment from the commencement program does not commit the university to grant the diploma to a person thus listed. Similarly, honor status as printed in this program was determined at the end of the previous semester. Final honor status will be noted on the diploma and on the official permanent record.

Note: This program is provided as a courtesy; it is by no means an official or complete record. Some names may not appear because of timing, production and editing processes, incomplete records or dead- line/editing complications due to extensive lists of frequently changing names.

Beginning with spring commencement 2008, graduation ceremonies are individually numbered.

Gaudeamus Igitur Anonymous, 18th Century German Melody Lyrics by Cynthia Parks ‘82

Kennesaw, dear Kennesaw, Nestled in the Georgia pines, What a special place you hold, Treasured in this heart of mine. For the candles you set burning, Lighting paths of love of learning, For the gifts you have given me, Kennesaw, I will cherish thee.

Kennesaw, dear Kennesaw, Fairest of the Southland’s fame, Sons and daughters gathered here, Stand to praise thy lovely name. For the friendships that were made here, For the dreams we dared to dream here, Kennesaw, we will cherish thee, Kennesaw, we will cherish thee.
