letter FROM THE PRESIDENT<br />
Dear Graduates,<br />
I join with your family and friends<br />
in applauding you, our Spring 2012<br />
graduates.<br />
Today is a marker in your life. I<br />
encourage you to stop and savor your<br />
achievement and enjoy the celebration<br />
and joy that surround you, for your<br />
accomplishment says more than you<br />
may know.<br />
Your <strong>Central</strong> diploma is an outward<br />
sign <strong>of</strong> your commitment and hard<br />
work. It says to the world, “I can make<br />
the appropriate sacrifices. I can learn. I<br />
can meet the challenge. I can succeed.”<br />
Your graduation is a clear manifestation<br />
<strong>of</strong> your own empowerment. You did it,<br />
and we are truly proud <strong>of</strong> you.<br />
Be encouraged by what you have<br />
accomplished.<br />
Now imagine what you are capable<br />
<strong>of</strong> doing.<br />
We believe your <strong>Central</strong> education<br />
has given you more than certain skill<br />
sets. We believe that you leave here with<br />
sharpened abilities to think and act creatively,<br />
critically and ethically. You can<br />
become the engaged citizens and leaders<br />
in whatever community you choose,<br />
whatever field you pursue.<br />
More importantly, we hope your<br />
<strong>Central</strong> experience has instilled in you a<br />
passion for learning, a habit that will be<br />
part <strong>of</strong> you throughout your life. We<br />
hope that you leave knowing how to<br />
perceive problems and find solutions,<br />
and to meet a changing world with a<br />
culture <strong>of</strong> learning that will enrich your<br />
life.<br />
With your graduation, you have<br />
changed your future and that <strong>of</strong> others<br />
who will be influenced by you. This is<br />
our hope for you.<br />
Know, too, that you are always welcome<br />
here, either to further your learning<br />
or as a loyal alumnus. You are a<br />
member <strong>of</strong> the UCO community<br />
regardless <strong>of</strong> where your life takes you.<br />
Finally,<br />
don't pass up<br />
this opportunity<br />
to thank those<br />
in your life<br />
whose encouragement<br />
and<br />
love helped you<br />
in countless<br />
ways to reach<br />
this plateau. Tell them today how much<br />
they mean to you.<br />
You can make a difference; you can<br />
be the change you wish to see in the<br />
world around you.<br />
We believe in you.<br />

The <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Central</strong> <strong>Oklahoma</strong><br />
was first known as the Territorial Normal<br />
School, created by the <strong>Oklahoma</strong><br />
Territorial legislature in December 1890<br />
to educate teachers for the one-room<br />
school houses being built across the<br />
growing territory.<br />
For more than 120 years, developing<br />
leaders for <strong>Oklahoma</strong> and the nation has<br />
been <strong>Central</strong>’s bedrock mission.<br />
From a territorial school <strong>of</strong> 23 students<br />
to more than 17,000 today, UCO<br />
has gone through many stages <strong>of</strong> development<br />
with more than 110,000 graduates.<br />
Now <strong>Oklahoma</strong>’s third largest state university,<br />
UCO has six colleges, including<br />
the Jackson College <strong>of</strong> Graduate Studies.<br />
THE HISTORY OF THE<br />
UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL OKLAHOMA<br />
<strong>Central</strong>’s first students met in<br />
Edmond’s First Methodist Church. In<br />
1892, construction began on the school’s<br />
first building, Old North Tower, still<br />
standing today. Over the next century,<br />
more buildings would be added, moved,<br />
torn down or rebuilt. Grass would give<br />
way to parking lots for the huge commuter<br />
population <strong>of</strong> the ‘70s and ‘80s. Now,<br />
grass grows over what used to be parking<br />
lots as the university has evolved into a<br />
beautifully landscaped campus, meeting<br />
the needs <strong>of</strong> those seeking a traditional<br />
campus atmosphere, while still serving the<br />
needs <strong>of</strong> the non-traditional student.<br />
Today, <strong>Central</strong> has moved into the<br />
role <strong>of</strong> being <strong>Oklahoma</strong>’s major metropolitan<br />
university with nationally recognized<br />
programs.<br />
During the 2011-12 academic year,<br />
<strong>Central</strong> was recognized in U.S. News &<br />
World Report’s 2012 Best Colleges — No.<br />
81 in the Tier One “Regional Universities:<br />
West” category. Forbes named <strong>Central</strong> to<br />
the magazine’s list <strong>of</strong> the nation’s 650 best<br />
undergraduate institutions. In addition,<br />
The Chronicle <strong>of</strong> Higher Education listed<br />
<strong>Central</strong> as one <strong>of</strong> the top producers <strong>of</strong><br />
U.S. Fulbright Scholars. Pr<strong>of</strong>essors Wei<br />
Chen, Ph.D., a 2008 U.S. Pr<strong>of</strong>essor <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Year, and David Hartmann, Ph.D., both<br />
have spent the last year working abroad on<br />
Fulbright scholarships. Meanwhile,<br />
Assistant Pr<strong>of</strong>essor <strong>of</strong> Photography Mark<br />
Zimmerman recently was named a 2012<br />
DaVinci Institute Fellow, while English<br />
Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Gladys Lewis, Ph.D., received<br />
the 2012 <strong>Oklahoma</strong> Medal for Excellence<br />
in Teaching. All bring recognition to<br />
<strong>Central</strong>’s quality faculty.<br />
<strong>Central</strong>’s mission remains one <strong>of</strong><br />
helping students become productive, creative,<br />
ethical and engaged citizens and<br />
leaders. In a world <strong>of</strong> increasing change,<br />
<strong>Central</strong> works to immerse students in a<br />
culture <strong>of</strong> learning to prepare them for the<br />
challenges they will face in the years to<br />
come, transforming their lives both today<br />
and tomorrow.<br />

Symbols <strong>of</strong> Authority<br />
The Mace<br />
Among ancient orders, the mace<br />
was a heavy staff or club made <strong>of</strong> wood<br />
and metal that was borne by, carried<br />
before or placed near a magistrate or<br />
other dignitary as an ensign <strong>of</strong> authority.<br />
In 1975, students and faculty in<br />
<strong>Central</strong>’s then Industrial Arts program<br />
constructed the university’s mace. It is<br />
approximately 34 inches in length and<br />
weighs 9.65 pounds.<br />
Near its top is a miniature replica<br />
<strong>of</strong> Old North Tower, created in pecan<br />
wood and encompassed within a bronze<br />
crown. Thirteen pieces <strong>of</strong> solid walnut<br />
wood make up the majority <strong>of</strong> the<br />
mace. The base on which the bronze<br />
medallion sits is rosewood. A bronze<br />
band encircling the mace is inscribed<br />
“<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Central</strong> <strong>Oklahoma</strong>.”<br />
The medallion<br />
In keeping with tradition, UCO<br />
President Don Betz will be wearing a<br />
medallion that was created in 2011<br />
with both past and future university<br />
presidents in mind.<br />
The chain features at its center a<br />
3.5-inch antiqued bronze medallion<br />
showing the <strong>of</strong>ficial UCO seal. On the<br />
flip side are the names <strong>of</strong> <strong>Central</strong>’s first<br />
15 presidents, from Richard Thatcher,<br />
who served from1891-1893, through<br />
W. Max Chambers, 1949-1960.<br />
Curved metal banners help form<br />
the chain on each side <strong>of</strong> the medallion.<br />
Each banner bears the name <strong>of</strong> one <strong>of</strong><br />
the next five <strong>Central</strong> presidents, including<br />
President Betz who began his service<br />
in August 2011 as <strong>Central</strong>’s 20th<br />
president. The medallion is designed<br />
with blank metal banners, evenly<br />
spaced among smaller <strong>of</strong>ficial UCO seal<br />
medallions. These blank banners are for<br />
the names <strong>of</strong> all future presidents, symbolizing<br />
the chain <strong>of</strong> university leadership.<br />

The Tradition <strong>of</strong> Academic Dress<br />
The precise origins <strong>of</strong> the several<br />
parts <strong>of</strong> academic dress still remain a<br />
matter <strong>of</strong> conjecture. The unheated<br />
buildings which medieval scholars frequented<br />
may have necessitated the wearing<br />
<strong>of</strong> gowns for comfort’s sake. The<br />
gowns and the hoods were common at<br />
British universities before the 14th century;<br />
the square cap is thought to be a<br />
16th century import from the <strong>University</strong><br />
<strong>of</strong> Paris. European universities continue<br />
to use a wide variety in the cut and color<br />
<strong>of</strong> gowns and the type <strong>of</strong> head wear<br />
worn.<br />
Academic attire began to appear<br />
on United States campuses in the late<br />
1890s. Since that time, its use has<br />
become universal for solemn university<br />
functions, and its pattern is highly uniform.<br />
From the color and cut <strong>of</strong> the<br />
American academic attire, one may<br />
determine the institution from which<br />
the wearer received the degree and the<br />
degree earned.<br />
The Cap<br />
The mortarboard has become the<br />
universally accepted style in United<br />
States colleges and universities. The<br />
standard tassel worn by faculty is black.<br />
However those with doctoral degrees<br />
may wear a gold tassel. Candidates for<br />
degrees have colored tassels that identify<br />
the student’s college as follows:<br />
Business Administration................ Drab<br />
Education & Pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
Studies..............................Light Blue<br />
Fine Arts & Design....Chocolate Brown<br />
Liberal Arts.........................Kelly Green<br />
Mathematics &<br />
Science........................ Golden Yellow<br />
Graduate..................... Bronze and Blue<br />
Associate........................................Gray<br />
The gown<br />
The bachelor’s gown has a long,<br />
pleated front with shirring across the<br />
shoulders and back. The flowing sleeves<br />
are pointed at the fingertip and are<br />
almost knee length.<br />
The master’s gown has oblong<br />
sleeves that reach well below the knees.<br />
The sleeves are cut so that the forearm<br />
comes through a slit just above the<br />
elbow.<br />
The doctor’s gown has broad, velvet<br />
panels down the front, and three<br />
velvet bars on full, round sleeves. This<br />
velvet trimming may be either black or<br />
a color distinctive <strong>of</strong> the degree.<br />
The associate's gown is the same<br />
style as a bachelor's, but dark gray.<br />
The hood<br />
The Master’s Hooding Ceremony<br />
focuses on advanced degree candidates<br />
and their accomplishments, while adding<br />
visual meaning. The colors <strong>of</strong> the hood’s<br />
silk lining represent university colors,<br />
which for <strong>Central</strong> are Bronze and Blue.<br />
The color <strong>of</strong> the hood’s velvet border<br />
represents the field <strong>of</strong> learning, such as<br />
light blue for Education or golden yellow<br />
for Science.<br />
The colors<br />
The fields <strong>of</strong> learning identified by<br />
the color <strong>of</strong> the velvet panels and sleeve<br />
bars on the gown or the edging <strong>of</strong> the<br />
hood include the following:<br />
Arts and Letters........................... White<br />
Business........................................ Drab<br />
Education..............................Light Blue<br />
Engineering................................Orange<br />
Fine Arts.....................................Brown<br />
Law............................................. Purple<br />
Medicine......................................Green<br />
Music.............................................Pink<br />
Nursing......................................Apricot<br />
Philosophy............................ Dark Blue<br />
Physical Education.............. Sage Yellow<br />
Science........................... Golden Yellow<br />
Social Science..............................Citron<br />
Theology.....................................Scarlet<br />

star-spangled banner<br />
O say, can you see, by the dawn’s early light,<br />
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming.<br />
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,<br />
O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?<br />
And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,<br />
Gave pro<strong>of</strong> through the night that our flag was still there;<br />
O say, does that Star-spangled Banner yet wave<br />
O’er the land <strong>of</strong> the free and the home <strong>of</strong> the brave?<br />
