  • Senior/Graduation Fee
    Senior/Graduation Fee What is this fee? This nonrefundable fee would be applied to degree‐seeking students who reach senior status or apply for graduation using the WSU Graduation Application. This would include students earning an Associate, Bachelors, Masters, or Doctoral degree. A student would be charged a single fee per degree, so a student having to reapply or move their graduation application would not be charged multiple times. This fee will not impact the eligibility of graduation or hinder the awarding of a degree. This will prevent the mailing of official transcripts and printing of the diploma. When will this fee be assessed? This fee will ideally be assessed at the time that a student reaches their senior/final year. How much is this fee? We are asking for a $25 Senior/Graduation Fee. What will the revenue from this fee be used for? These funds would be used for the expenses associated with graduation, the Warrior Grad Celebration, and commencement. This will include diploma covers, academic honors cords, printing diplomas, mailing diplomas, commencement costs which may include but are not limited to printing costs, refreshments, decorations, music, and other supplies. What is the expected amount of revenue from this fee? It is anticipated based on past, current, and past trends, that roughly 1835 students would have this fee assessed each fiscal year. This would equate to $45,875.00 annually. Why is this fee being requested? Currently there is no budget exclusive to graduation/commencement. Primarily Academic Affairs and the Registrar’s Office have paid for these expenses from their own operating budgets.

Like many people, I find nature to be a source of renewal, a connection to the Earth and the Divine, and a reminder of the interconnectedness of creation. Also, like many people, I am concerned about our world. As scientific evidence of human-caused climate change is mounting, members of the Gustavus community are working to understand this crisis and its local and Alfred Nobel had a vision of global effects. On campus, several groups are working on this great challenge a better world. He believed of our time.

    METAL STORYTELLERS: REFLECTIONS OF WAR CULTURE IN SILVERPLATE B-29 NOSE ART FROM THE 509TH COMPOSITE GROUP by Terri D. Wesemann A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE in American Studies Specialization Folklore Approved: ______________________ ____________________ Randy Williams, MS Jeannie Thomas, Ph.D. Committee Chair Committee Member ______________________ ____________________ Susan Grayzel, Ph.D. Richard S. Inouye, Ph.D. Committee Member Vice Provost for Graduate Studies UTAH STATE UNIVERSITY Logan, Utah 2019 Copyright © Terri Wesemann 2019 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Metal Storytellers: Reflections of War Culture in Silverplate B-29 Nose Art From the 509th Composite Group by Terri D. Wesemann, Master of Arts Utah State University, 2019 Committee Chair: Randy Williams, MS Department: English Most people are familiar with the Enola Gay—the B-29 that dropped Little Boy, the first atomic bomb, over the city of Hiroshima, Japan on August 6, 1945. Less known are the fifteen Silverplate B-29 airplanes that trained for the mission, that were named and later adorned with nose art. However, in recorded history, the atomic mission overshadowed the occupational folklore of this group. Because the abundance of planes were scrapped in the decade after World War II and most WWII veterans have passed on, all that remains of their occupational folklore are photographs, oral and written histories, some books, and two iconic airplanes in museum exhibits. Yet, the public’s infatuation and curiosity with nose art keeps the tradition alive. The purpose of my graduate project and internship with the Hill Aerospace Museum was to collaborate on a 60-foot exhibit that analyzes the humanizing aspects of the Silverplate B-29 nose art from the 509th Composite Group and show how nose art functioned in three ways.
