Undergraduate Commencement MONMOUTH UNIVERSITY UNDERGRADUATE COMMENCEMENT H UN UT IV O E M R S N I O T Y M N 3 3 E 9 W 1 J E R S E Y WEDNESDAY,2 MAY 01FIFTEENTH, TWO9 THOUSAND NINETEEN WEST LONG BRANCH, NEW JERSEY THE ACADEMIC PROCESSION AND REGALIA The commencement ceremony processional begins with faculty marshals designated by the provost leading the faculty, followed by the student marshals who lead the candidates for degrees. The platform party follows and consists of honorees, members of the Board of Trustees, the president, president’s cabinet, academic school deans, faculty council chair, and the senior class president. The history of academic dress reaches far back into the earliest days of the oldest universities. A statute of 1321 required that all “Doctors, Licentiates, and Bachelors” of the University of Coimbra wear gowns. In England, in the second half of the fourteenth century, the statutes of certain colleges prescribed the wearing of a long gown. In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries in Europe, the wearing of a robe often signified a degree candidate’s political or religious affiliation; in the northern universities and those of the British Isles, the robes signified that tuition and boarding fees of the wearer had been paid and also entitled him to special immunities in civil law, as well as providing him warmth at lectures and chapel. When American colleges and universities desired to adopt some suitable system of academic apparel, a conference held at Columbia University in 1895, made up of representatives from various institutions, drew up a “By-Law, Regulation, or Statute” for the establishment of a suitable code of academic dress for colleges and universities in the United States. This code, with modifications made in 1959 by the Committee on Academic Costumes and Ceremonies of the American Council on Education, is still in force; the costumes and colors, trimmings, and patterns you will see are traditional, and interpret both the degree and field of learning. The bachelor’s gown, designed to be worn closed, has pointed sleeves; the master’s gown, which may be worn open or closed, has an oblong sleeve open at the wrist that hangs down in the traditional manner. The rear part of its oblong shape is square cut, and the front part has the arc cut away. The doctor’s gown has bell-shaped sleeves. It may be worn open or closed. Black is the recommended color for all academic gowns. Bachelor’s and master’s gowns are untrimmed. Doctor’s gowns are faced with black velvet, with three bars across the sleeves; the color of the velvet may also be that which is distinctive to the degree, agreeing with that of the edging of the hood. In the 1960s, many American land-grant universities adopted the British and the Scottish tradition of using the official school color(s) for the robes of their doctoral recipients—for instance, Yale: sky blue; Harvard: crimson; University of Pennsylvania: scarlet and blue; Columbia: slate gray; Rutgers: deep red and black. The colors you will see in the hoods of our faculty represent the various fields in which the degrees were taken: Apricot: Nursing Orange: Engineering Brown: Fine Arts Pink: Music Citron: Social Work Purple: Law Crimson: Journalism Sage Green: Physical Education Dark Blue: Philosophy Salmon Pink: Public Health Golden Yellow: Science Scarlet: Theology Green: Medicine Yellow-Brown: Commerce, Business, Accountancy Lemon-Yellow: Library Science White: Arts, Letters, Humanities Light Blue: Education The hoods, differing in length for the three degrees—bachelor’s, master’s, and doctor’s—are lined with the official colors of the university or college conferring the degree, usually with one color forming a chevron pattern over the other. Hoods are edged and bound with velvet or the color appropriate for the degree. You will see in our procession many hoods edged with dark blue, representing doctor of philosophy. Mortarboards are the approved headgear. The tassel, worn on the left side of the cap, may be gold if the holder has a doctor’s degree.

Key Points: • Provide the first broad-scale application of empirical photometric control to Context Camera data. • Resulting mosaics are nearly seamless when images are relatively consistent. • Accuracy of control depends upon accuracy of a reference source. Plain Language Summary (200-word limit): Creating a mosaic of images of planetary surfaces is relatively straightforward: Geometric data of the camera and spacecraft tell us where and how images should be placed relative to each other. Something that is more difficult is matching brightness variations across the images to create a mosaic that appears seamless. Different mathematical mechanisms exist to try to adjust brightness and contrast of overlapping images to match, but this is not always possible. For example, if two overlapping images were taken when the sun was in different locations in the sky, then it will be impossible to get the shadows to match. If clouds or a dust storm dims an image and reduces contrast, it will be hard to match to another that was taken when the atmosphere was clear.

When a planet transits its star in this way, it is possible to see through its thin layer of atmosphere and measure its spectrum. The lines at the bottom of the page show the absorption spectrum of the Earth in front of the Sun, the signature of life as we know it. Seeing our Earth as just one possibly habitable planet among many billions fundamentally changes the perception of our place among the stars.

  • Exploring Solar-Terrestrial Interactions Via Multiple Observers a White Paper for the Voyage 2050 Long-Term Plan in the ESA Science Programme
    Exploring Solar-Terrestrial Interactions via Multiple Observers A White Paper for the Voyage 2050 long-term plan in the ESA Science Programme Pollock et al. 2003 Contact Scientist Graziella Branduardi-Raymont Mullard Space Science Laboratory, University College London Holmbury St Mary, Dorking, Surrey RH5 6NT, UK Tel. +44 (0)1483 204133 [email protected] Exploring Solar-Terrestrial Interactions via Multiple Observers Executive summary The central question we propose to address is: How does solar wind energy flow through the Earth’s magnetosphere, how is it converted and distributed? This is a fundamental science question expressing our need to understand how the Sun creates the heliosphere, and how the planets interact with the solar wind and its magnetic field. This is not just matter of scientific curiosity – it also addresses a clear and pressing practical problem. As our world becomes ever more dependent on complex technology – both in space and on the ground – society becomes more exposed to the vagaries of space weather, the conditions on the Sun and in the solar wind, magnetosphere, ionosphere and thermosphere that can influence the performance and reliability of technological systems and endanger human life and health. This fundamental question breaks down to several sub-questions: 1) How is energy transferred from the solar wind to the magnetosphere at the magnetopause? 2) What are the external and internal drivers of the different magnetospheric regimes? 3) How does energy circulate through the magnetotail? 4) How do behaviours in the North and South hemispheres relate to each other? 5) What are the sources and losses of ring current and radiation belt plasma in the inner magnetosphere? 6) How does feedback from the inner magnetosphere influence dayside and nightside processes? Much knowledge has already been acquired through observations in space and on the ground over the past decades, but the infant stage of space weather forecasting demonstrates that we still have a vast amount of learning to do.

Senza per altro trascurare la solita intensissima attività pubblica e didattica. Ecco, comunque, l ‘usuale sintesi delle nostre attività NORMALI (ovvero istituzionali della nostra Associazione) e delle nostre attività SPECIALI (ossia decise anno per anno dal nostro CD). 1) ATTIVITA' NORMALI : si tratta di conferenze pubbliche e di lezioni scolastiche distribuite lungo TUTTO il corso dell'anno. In totale sono state 97 così distribuite: 1a)CONFERENZE PUBBLICHE A TRADATE, sono state 16, quasi sempre localizzate nell’ accogliente platea del CineTeatro P.GRASSI, di norma sempre molto affollato, con una presenza crescente anche di ragazzi delle scuole superiori. Questo grazie alla nostra abitudine di trattare in maniera rigorosamente scientifica ma nel contempo comprensibile a tutti, i temi di più stretta attualità (il cielo incontaminato delle Ande, i pianeti extrasolari, la materia oscura, il 100° anniversario della Deriva dei continenti, ecc, ecc). Da rimarcare che, pur NON godendo il GAT di alcun finanziamento da parte di Enti pubblici, e pur invitando spesso a Tradate ospiti di grande nome, le nostre serate rimangono, per statuto, sempre libere e gratuite per tutti. (vedi allegato 1a). 1b)LEZIONI PRESSO SCUOLE: sono state 50, con circa 130 ore di lezioni (un vero record !).

  • The Day the Earth Smiled
    SPACE SCOOP DES NOUVELLES DES QUATRE COINS DE L’UNIVERS 23The juillet Day 2013 the Earth Smiled Something great, something big, something new and very special has just happened! On July 19 2013, the Cassini spacecraft orbiting around Saturn, over a billion kilometres away, was turned around to snap a photograph of the Earth! The photo-shoot was timed perfectly so that the brilliant light of the Sun was blocked by Saturn itself. The beautiful ringed planet looms large in the front of the picture, along with its entire ring system, and the Earth appears as a very distant ‘pale blue dot’. The Earth has been circled in this picture because it's so tiny, you might miss it otherwise! It might be a very small picture, but we're all in it, the billions of us on Earth. For the first time, this space photograph has captured the Saturn system with Earth in natural colour. So, it shows the view exactly as human eyes would see it from that distance! The picture will join a legacy of space-based images of our fragile home. Others include the famous ‘Earthrise’ photograph taken in 1968 by an astronaut from about 380,000 kilometres during the Apollo 8 moon mission and the 1990 ‘Pale Blue Dot’ image captured by Voyager 1 as it soared through space about 6 billion kilometres away from Earth! The event was used as a great opportunity for everyone around the globe to savour just how special our beautiful blue-ocean planet is and how precious life is on it.
