4 Commencement Speaker Bernard Franklin, Ph.D. Executive Vice President, National Collegiate Athletic Association President of four colleges before joining the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) in 2003, Bernard Franklin now serves as its executive vice president. A voluntary association of more than 1,000 member institutions, the NCAA has a national staff of nearly 400. Franklin oversees the largest administrative area of the NCAA, which includes membership and academic affairs, governance, educational affairs, research, and diversity and inclusion. He also assures the effective functioning of the NCAA governance groups.

Franklin previously served as president of Virginia Union University in Richmond; Livingstone College and Hood Theological Seminary in Salisbury, N.C.; and Saint Augustine’s College in Raleigh, N.C. He is a former member of the NCAA Division II Presidents Council and the Executive Committee. Franklin was inducted into the John McLendon Minority Athletics Administrators Hall of Fame in June 2009.

Franklin’s experience in higher education is broad and varied. In 1988, he was selected as one of 28 American Council on Education (ACE) Fellows. Through this prestigious national fellowship, he held an executive internship focused on institutional advancement, academic administration and planning, fiscal management and president/board of trustees’ relations. His experience in higher education also includes serving as a full-time faculty member in the Department of Educational Leadership, School of Education at Miami University of Ohio, and serving as assistant vice president for student affairs at Johnson C. Smith University in Charlotte, N.C.

Heavily involved in community service, Franklin has served as a member of the board of The College Fund/United Negro College Fund; Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association; Virginia Literacy Foundation; and Simpson College Board of Trustees.

Currently, Franklin is a member of the United Negro College Fund Advisory Board for Indiana and chair of its Corporate Giving Committee; member of the Center for Leadership Development Board; chair of the Board of Trustees for Martin University; and member of the National Consortium for Academics and Sports Board.

Franklin also served on the Executive Committee of the Greater Richmond Chamber of Commerce and the Executive Committee of Richmond Renaissance Incorporated. He has served on the corporate boards of Delhaize America and Centura Bank, and as a member of the board of trustees at the World Affairs Council of Greater Richmond.

A graduate of Simpson College (Iowa), Franklin holds a master’s degree in education from Western Maryland College (currently McDaniel College) and a doctorate in education from Columbia University’s Teacher’s College.

5 Metro State: On the Road to Preeminence Established in 1965, Metropolitan State College of Denver enrolls nearly 23,000 students, with more in-state undergraduates than any other institution in Colorado. In 2005, Metro State set the ambitious long-term goal of becoming the preeminent public urban baccalaureate college in the nation, toward which it has made significant progress.

Metro State is steadfast in its mission to provide students from all walks of life with a high- quality education that prepares them for rewarding careers, postgraduate education and lifelong learning in a multicultural, global and technological society. With diversity as a core value, Metro State is proud to enroll more students of color than all other four-year institutions in Colorado.

The individualized and relevant education the College provides encompasses high-quality academics, an unsurpassed faculty and a unique urban experience rich with diversity, degree choices and community impact. These attributes make Metro State Colorado’s best value in higher education.

The College boasts accomplished professors who are known nationally in their respective fields, including Assistant Professor of Technical Communications Lisa Ortiz, who was awarded a Virtual Learning Prize from the New Media Consortium for her computer program that helps students experience life with a disability; Deputy Provost and Chicana/o Studies Associate Professor Luis Torres, who received the 2008 ¡Scouting Vale La Pena! service award; and Assistant Professor of African and African American Studies Derrick Hudson, who received a first-place award from the Colorado Association of Black Journalists for a column in The Denver Post on the role of African American churches in the African American community.

Metro State students are making a name for themselves as well; they are routinely selected for nationally competitive study-abroad scholarships and win regional and national awards in myriad academic areas such as theatre, piloting and accounting. For instance, The Metropolitan, the College’s student-produced newspaper, received a 2009 Society of Professional Journalists Award for best all-around weekly in the region, besting 3600 competitors. Musical theatre major Jake Williamson received a 2008 Denver Post Ovation Award for his role in Southern Colorado Repertory Theatre’s “Lend Me a Tenor.” And the Metro State Flight Team once again qualified to compete at the national SAFECON competition this year.

The Class of 2009 joins the ranks of 65,000 proud Metro State alumni, the vast majority of whom remain in Colorado to live and work as our teachers, nurses, accountants, pilots, law enforcement officials, social workers and high-tech employees. Metro State graduates run businesses, contribute in the nonprofit sector and serve in government at the local and state levels.

Metro State graduates are achieving their dreams. For instance, Roger Foster (’86, civil engineering technology) is vice president of the URS Corporation in Atlanta and has managed airport expansion programs at Richmond International, Newark International and Fort Lauderdale International airports. Col. Laura Jane Richardson (’86, psychology) is the first female commander of Ft. Myer.

The accomplishments of our students and graduates, and the better lives that education brings them, are a great source of pride for Metro State and are an integral part of the foundation on which we are building a national reputation for preeminence.

7 Academic Attire Academic attire is modeled after monks’ clothing from the Middle Ages, when college faculty and students were members of religious orders. In England, the faculty of many colleges and universities still wear gowns, hoods and caps in the classroom.

In the early 20th century, colleges and universities throughout the world adopted guidelines for the design and colors of academic attire. An institution may design and register special attire for its administrators and graduates, but it must conform to certain standards. Once registered, the design/ color combination may not be duplicated by other institutions.

The bachelor’s gown is most often black and has long sleeves that taper to a point in the back. It is always worn closed. At Metro State, women do not wear a white collar with the gown. The hood worn by the President’s Award recipient is a Metropolitan State College of Denver bachelor’s degree hood and is worn by this student to represent the graduating class.

The gown signifying the master’s degree is also usually black and may be worn open or closed. It features oblong sleeves that hang below the wrist, tapering to a square cut with a cutaway arc.

Although usually black, the doctoral gown is sometimes seen in colors—usually gold, purple, blue or red. The gown may be worn open or closed. The opening of the gown is faced with velvet and three velvet chevrons run across its bell-shaped sleeves. The velvet facing and chevrons may be black or the color representing the field of study.

The hood varies in length and shape according to the degree it represents—the shortest and smallest signifies the bachelor’s degree and the longest and widest signifies the doctoral degree. The velvet bordering the hood represents the degree field of study. The colors most frequently seen at Metro State are royal blue – Philosophy; light blue – Education; yellow – Science; green – Medicine.

The satin lining of the hood, each a specific design, represents the college or university at which the individual earned his or her degree.

The Oxford Cap, or mortarboard as it is better known, completes the attire. In place of the hood, bachelor’s candidates at Metro State wear colored tassels on the Oxford Cap to represent the academic department of the College from which they earned their degrees. Those holding graduate degrees usually wear black tassels, but those holding doctoral degrees may wear tassels of gold thread, and may elect to wear a four-sided or eight-sided velvet tam instead of the Oxford Cap. Some universities have designated the Cambridge Cap, a large, soft beret, for their administrators and those who have earned a doctoral degree at that institution.

8 Academic Colors Graduate Tassel Colors by School School of Business – Drab School of Letters, Arts and Sciences – White School of Professional Studies – Peacock Blue Academic Distinction You will notice that some of our graduates are wearing one or more cords, stoles or medallions of various colors or designs about the neck of their gowns to represent high academic achievement. Those graduates who have achieved overall excellence are recognized by the College through three areas of distinction: Summa Cum Laude (with highest praise) Gold and blue cord Magna Cum Laude (with great praise) Silver and blue cord Cum Laude (with praise) Bronze and blue cord The College encourages students to enroll in and complete an especially rigorous course of inter- disciplinary study in addition to the individual’s major and minor study degree requirements. This course of study is known as the Honors Program.
