RVU Class of 2021 Commencement Program (PDF) Class of 2021 Mission Statement Rocky Vista University provides quality healthcare education while inspiring students to serve with compassion, integrity, and excellence. Rocky Vista University Southern Utah Class of 2021 Commencement Fifteenth of May Two-Thousand Twenty-One Letter from the Provost Dear Rocky Vista University’s Class of 2021, This year’s Commencement is bittersweet. As you leave RVU, we celebrate your many accomplishments and wish you well as you start the next phase of your journey. We are saddened that we are not able to gather in person to celebrate due to the pandemic. Know that as you watch the ceremony with your classmates or your loved ones, we are with you in spirit. This year is especially significant as it marks the graduation of our Inaugural Class of our Southern Utah Campus DO and MSBS students. You are all pio- neers and will pave the way for those who follow in your footsteps. You have demonstrated great resilience as we have navigated these challenging times together. To our medical school graduates, today you join a network of approximately 114,000 prac- ticing osteopathic physicians across the nation. Be loyal to your profession and remember to treat all of your patients with the utmost compassion and care. Remember that everyone is someone’s loved one – treat them as you would your own family. To our MSBS graduates, thank you for the trust you have placed in us. We understand the challenges you have faced this year with remote learning. You have worked hard and have overcome obstacles to be one step closer to achieving your professional goals. We look forward to seeing the great things you will accomplish. As you transition from RVU Students to Alumni, remember to express gratitude to those who have helped you on your journey—your family, friends, faculty and staff—all of whom stood with you to cheer you on during the good times, as well as those challenging moments, and now share the sense of pride and accomplishment with you. Also, remember that you are always a part of the RVU Family. Never stop learning, growing in mind, body and spirit, and becoming an integral member of the communities you will serve. We look forward to your future accomplishments and know that you will make us proud! Warmest regards, David A. Forstein, DO Provost The Osteopathic Oath I do hereby affirm my loyalty to the profession I am about to enter. I will be mindful always of my great responsibility to preserve the health and the life of my patients, to retain their confidence and respect both as a physician and a friend who will guard their secrets with scrupulous honor and fidelity, to perform faithfully my professional duties, to employ only those recognized methods of treatment consistent with good judgment and with my skill and ability, keeping in mind always nature’s laws and the body’s inherent capacity for recovery. I will be ever vigilant in aiding in the general welfare of the community, sustaining its laws and institutions, not engaging in those practices which will in any way bring shame or discredit upon myself or my profession. I will give no drugs for nefarious purposes to any person, though it may be asked of me. I will endeavor to work in accord with my colleagues in a spirit of progressive cooperation and never by word or by act cast imputations upon them or their rightful practices. I will look with respect and esteem upon all those who have taught me my art. To my college and my profession, I will be loyal and strive always for its best interests and for the interests of the students who will come after me. I will be ever alert to further the application of basic biologic truths to the healing arts and to develop the principles of osteopathic medicine which were first enunciated by Andrew Taylor Still.

  • Intimate Perspectives from the Battlefields of Iraq
    'The Best Covered War in History': Intimate Perspectives from the Battlefields of Iraq by Andrew J. McLaughlin A thesis presented to the University Of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2017 © Andrew J. McLaughlin 2017 Examining Committee Membership The following served on the Examining Committee for this thesis. The decision of the Examining Committee is by majority vote. External Examiner Marco Rimanelli Professor, St. Leo University Supervisor(s) Andrew Hunt Professor, University of Waterloo Internal Member Jasmin Habib Associate Professor, University of Waterloo Internal Member Roger Sarty Professor, Wilfrid Laurier University Internal-external Member Brian Orend Professor, University of Waterloo ii Author's Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. iii Abstract This study examines combat operations from the 2003 invasion of Iraq War from the “ground up.” It utilizes unique first-person accounts that offer insights into the realities of modern warfare which include effects on soldiers, the local population, and journalists who were tasked with reporting on the action. It affirms the value of media embedding to the historian, as hundreds of journalists witnessed major combat operations firsthand. This line of argument stands in stark contrast to other academic assessments of the embedding program, which have criticized it by claiming media bias and military censorship. Here, an examination of the cultural and social dynamics of an army at war provides agency to soldiers, combat reporters, and innocent civilians caught in the crossfire.

  • RVU Class of 2020 Commencement Program (PDF)
    Mission Statement Rocky Vista University provides quality healthcare education while inspiring students to serve with compassion, integrity, and excellence. Class of 2020 Commencement Friday, First of May, Two-Thousand Twenty Letter from the President To Rocky Vista University’s Class of 2020, This year’s Commencement is dedicated to our students and faculty as they played, and continue to play, a significant role in the COVID-19 Pandemic. Not since 1918 has our Country’s medical professionals been challenged by such a far-reaching pandemic. It challenges us, as a graduate healthcare University, to insist on the most advanced educational technologies and curricular emphasis, while never forgetting our commitment to the healing power and the importance of body, mind, and spirit. We are proud of the stellar performance and eagerness of the Class of 2020 to launch into the next phase of medical education. You came to RVU with a sense of purpose, a desire to make a difference, and today, I remind you that your journey is never complete. The faculty and staff have provided you with the tools for success and wish you every joy and happiness a life of service can bring. Today is a day of gratitude: gratitude to your family, friends, and faculty—all of whom share in your pride and accomplishment. To our medical school graduates, the people that are not here are your future patients, the individuals and families you will be privileged to touch. The “DO Touch” encompasses compassion, caring, and expertise in your chosen specialty. Every day, we hear tragic sto- ries of families devastated by not being with their loved ones at their hour of need; this sorrow will reside in their hearts and minds forever.

    “For a World Without Oppressors:” U.S. Anarchism from the Palmer Raids to the Sixties by Andrew Cornell A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Social and Cultural Analysis Program in American Studies New York University January, 2011 _______________________ Andrew Ross © Andrew Cornell All Rights Reserved, 2011 “I am undertaking something which may turn out to be a resume of the English speaking anarchist movement in America and I am appalled at the little I know about it after my twenty years of association with anarchists both here and abroad.” -W.S. Van Valkenburgh, Letter to Agnes Inglis, 1932 “The difficulty in finding perspective is related to the general American lack of a historical consciousness…Many young white activists still act as though they have nothing to learn from their sisters and brothers who struggled before them.” -George Lakey, Strategy for a Living Revolution, 1971 “From the start, anarchism was an open political philosophy, always transforming itself in theory and practice…Yet when people are introduced to anarchism today, that openness, combined with a cultural propensity to forget the past, can make it seem a recent invention—without an elastic tradition, filled with debates, lessons, and experiments to build on.” -Cindy Milstein, Anarchism and Its Aspirations, 2010 “Librarians have an ‘academic’ sense, and can’t bare to throw anything away! Even things they don’t approve of. They acquire a historic sense. At the time a hand-bill may be very ‘bad’! But the following day it becomes ‘historic.’” -Agnes Inglis, Letter to Highlander Folk School, 1944 “To keep on repeating the same attempts without an intelligent appraisal of all the numerous failures in the past is not to uphold the right to experiment, but to insist upon one’s right to escape the hard facts of social struggle into the world of wishful belief.
