2 UNIVERSITY of HOUSTON Message from the President

December 17, 2020

Dear University of Houston Graduates,

Congratulations! Today, a promise you made to yourself has been brought to fruition. I hope that you are proud of your achievements, for which there are countless many. You have persevered through group projects, numerous exams, hurricanes and a pandemic. As a member of the Class of 2020, you demonstrated time and again that the solution to every challenge can be found in determination, hard work and a positive attitude.

Earning a degree is a long and winding journey that tests your intellect and your character, and a greater version of yourself – stronger, confident and capable – crosses that finish line. Many people supported and encouraged you along the way, and they were vital to propelling you to this ceremony. I am certain your parents, families and friends, and UH faculty, advisors and staff share in the joy and pride you feel at this moment.

Once you turn your tassel, you will no longer be a student; however, it is my sincere hope that you will continue to be a life-long learner. The lessons you gained in your years at UH will serve you well as you make your mark on the world as a proud and confident UH alumnus, ready and able to compete and to become leaders in your chosen careers.

With my best wishes for a bright and rewarding future, Go Coogs!

Renu Khator President

Commencement Traditions

Academic costumes of today have a history of nearly eight centuries. In medieval Europe, all townspeople wore long flowing robes and gowns. The materials and colors were governed by royal decree. Gradually, distinctive gowns were developed for the various professions, trades and guilds. Scholars wore robes and hoods to protect their shaved heads. Later, skullcaps were worn on the head, and the hoods became a cape that could be pulled over the head during unpleasant weather.

As additional universities were founded, distinctive forms of the gown and hood were adapted by their faculties for bachelor’s (apprentices of the arts), master’s (teachers) and doctoral (teachers who had completed postgraduate studies). When caps and hats came into fashion in the 15th century, the hoods became ornamental, draped over the shoulders and down the back.

The academic hat was first worn as a symbol of the master’s degree and existed in various forms. The mortarboard style comes to us from Oxford University. When academic costumes came to America in 1754, styles were quite varied. In Europe, they still are; however, in our country, usage has been standardized by the Intercollegiate Code of Academic Costume.

Ceremonial Symbols The Seal Throughout history, seals have been used to authenticate official documents. The University of Houston and UH System seals both bear the Official Seal of Arms of General Sam Houston, as handed down to him from his noble ancestors. It includes the escutcheon in the center of the seal — consisting of checkered chevrons denoting nobility — and three martlets, gentle lowland birds that symbolize peace and deliverance. A winged hourglass is placed above the shield. Surmounting this is the motto “In Tempore,” meaning “In Time.” The greyhounds indicate speed of giving aid. The UH seal was first adopted in 1938 as the present campus was established. Although the look of the seal has evolved over the years, the first version was etched into the floor of the Roy G. Cullen Building.

University Mace The University Mace, which is carried in academic processions, is a staff symbolizing the University’s authority and unity. The tradition of the academic mace began in the late 14th century when two ancient instruments, the royal scepter and the battle mace, were combined to form a university president’s symbol of authority.

The Alma Mater

All hail to thee, Our Houston University. Our hearts fill with gladness When we think of thee. We’ll always adore thee Dear old varsity. And to thy memory cherished, True we’ll ever be.

Words and music by Harmony Class of 1942

President’s Medallion William A. Brookshire

William A. Brookshire, Ph.D., co-founder of S&B Engineers and Constructors, graduated from the University of Houston in 1957 with a bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering. He later earned his master’s degree and doctoral degree from Louisiana State University. Based in Houston, his company grew to employ 7,500 people around the world.

After he graduated from UH, Dr. Brookshire remained loyal to his University. His efforts helped the Cullen College of Engineering excel as an internationally recognized hub of research activity in the fields of chemical and biomolecular engineering. In recognition of his lifelong support, personal, and career accomplishments, he received the UH Engineering Alumni Association’s Distinguished Engineering Alumni Award in 1989 and the UH Engineering Alumni Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award in 2019. Though he passed away in 2017, his continued philanthropic impact on the educational excellence of UH faculty, students and researchers remains significant.

The first in his family to earn a high school diploma and discouraged from attending college, Dr. Brookshire pursued his degree at UH while working full-time during the day and attending classes at night. Because of this experience, he worked tirelessly to help others facing similar challenges and barriers to higher education. His support has funded more than 600, and counting, undergraduate engineering scholarships to ease the financial burdens of working students, and later, an emergency fund for engineering students facing economic hardship.

Most recently, Dr. Brookshire provided a transformational gift to the Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering at the Cullen College of Engineering. The gift establishes two endowed chairs and four professorships, provides graduate student fellowships, and invests in department research initiatives. In recognition of this gift, the department has been named the William A. Brookshire Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering.

Throughout his life, O’Quinn maintained his personal commitment to making UH a better institution.

Most recently, a $3.5 million grant from The John M. O’Quinn Foundation provided full four-year scholarships to one-third of the new College of Medicine’s second-year class of 30 students. The grant will also fund startup costs, faculty hires, labs and a household-centered health care program for underserved communities. And, the Foundation has contributed more than $16 million to the UH Law Center; the new state-of-the-art facility will bear his name as the John M. O’Quinn Law Building.
