Welcome from Chancellor Linda H. Bunnell On behalf of the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point, I welcome you to our
Winter 2005 Commencement Ceremony. Commencement is one of our most
time-honored and cherished traditions, one we have practiced for 110 years. The
University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point held its initial commencement ceremony
on June 26, 1895.
"Families, townspeople, faculty and students gathered at 10 a.m . in the
Assembly Hall for this historic occasion. Dr. Benjamin S. Terry of the University
of Chicago presented the address and spoke on the topic 'What is an education?'
Seven members of the class received diplomas in elementary education. "1
Today we will be honoring over 531 s tudents, their families and supporters, as they celebra te this major
achievem ent from a university that now includes four academic colleges offering over 100 program
choices within 50 majors, plus 78 minors and 16 graduate programs. We honor these students, and all
who have made it possible, for their achievements, learning, and rigorous work.
Completing a university degree is a major accomplishment, one not achieved without significant
sacrifices by the students themselves and also by their families, associates, and friends. It is my honor to
present these students to you for your own personal and unique ways of sharing your great joy in their
success on this most special day.
I am confident that the faculty and staff of the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point have broadened
the intellectual horizons and contributed to many, many happy memories that will last the lifetimes of
those graduating today. I thank them for their contributions to this day of celebration as well.
It is my p leasure to confer these degrees and to honor our Winter 2005 graduates at this most
magnificent of UWSP traditions.
Sincerely,
~dv~ Lin da H . Bunnell
Chancellor

academic disciplines and recognizes those persons of good character who have excelled

students for outstanding academic achievement.
There are three levels of undergraduate academic honors, which are awarded on the
basis of grade point average for all courses attempted. Those students graduating Cnm
Lande have achieved an overall grade point average of 3.5 to 3.74; those graduating
Magna Cnm Laude have earned an overall grade point average of 3.75 to 3.89; and those
achieving a Snmma Cum Laude designation have earned an overall grade point average
of 3.9 or above.

Academic Regalia
History
The origins of the academic dress date back to the 12th and 13th centuries when
universities were beginning to form. It is still open to question as to whether academic
dress finds it sources chiefly in ecclesiastical or civilian dress. It is often suggested tha t
gowns and hoods were the simplest, most effective method of staying warm in the
unheated, stone buildings which housed medieval scholars.
In the days of King Henry VIII of England, Oxford and Cambridge first began
prescribing a definite academic dress and made it a matter of university control to the
extent of its minor details. The assignment of colors to signify certain faculties was to
be a much later development and one which was to be standardized only in the United
States in the late 19th Century. An Intercollegiate Commission comprised of
representatives of leading institutions met at Columbia University in 1895 and adopted
a code of academic dress which besides regulating the cut and style and materials of the
gowns, prescribed the colors which were to represent the different fields of learning.
In 1959, a Committee on Academic Costumes and Ceremonies, appointed by the
American Council on Education, again reviewed the costume code and made several
changes. In 1986, the committee updated the code and added a sentence clarifying the
use of the color dark blue for the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree.

The Gown
Pattern. Gowns recommended for use in the colleges and universities of this cow1try
have the following characteristics. The gown for the bachelor 's degree has pointed
sleeves. It is designed to be worn closed. The gown for the master 's degree has an
oblong sleeve, open at the wrist, like the others. The sleeve base hangs down in the
traditional manner. The rear part of its oblong shape is square cut, and the front part
has an arc cut away. The gown is so designed and supplied with fasteners that it may
be worn open or closed . The gown for the doctor 's degree has bell-shaped sleeves. It is
so designed and supplied with fasteners that it may be worn open or closed.
Materinl. As a means of adaptation to climate, the material of the gowns may vary from
very light to very heavy provided that the material, color, and pattern follow the
prescribed rules.
Color. Black is recommended.
Trimmings. Gowns for the bachelor 's or master 's degrees are untrimmed. For the
doctor 's degree, the gown is faced down the front with black velvet; three bars of velvet
are used across the sleeves. These facings and crossbars may be of velvet of the color
distinctive of the disciplines to which the degree pertains, thus agreeing in color with
the binding or edging of the hood appropriate to the particular doctor 's degree in every
instance.
28
The Hood
Linings. The hoods are to be lined with the official color or colors of the institution
which granted the highest degree held by the wearer; more than one color is shown by
division of the field color in a variety of ways such as by chevron or chevrons.
Trimmings. The binding or edging of the hood is to be velvet or velveteen, two inches,
three inches, and five inches wide for the bachelor 's, master's, and doctoral degrees,
respectively; the color should be indicative of the subject to which the degree pertains.
Chancellor~ Medallion and
the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point
Ceremonial Mace
The Chancellor's Medallion and the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point Ceremonial
Mace were both handcrafted by Henry M. Runke, former chairman of the Art
Department. The Medallion was cast in a 14k gold pendant in 1968 and contains a
purple amethyst to represent the school colors. The four sectioned areas beginning near
the center symbolize the four colleges of the university and terminate as prongs for the
gem. The Mace, carried by the Grand Marshall of academic processions, was completed
in 1976 and has a square base on which important dates from the school's history are
recorded. The most prominent feature is the head of the Mace which is a miniature of
the cupola on Old Main- the school's symbol. The inside of the Mace also contains a
purple amethyst.

University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point
Alumni Association
The University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point Alumni Association welcomes our Winter
2005 graduates to the ranks of University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point alumni. To honor
this occasion, members of the Future Alumni Association will present each new
alumnus with the gift of a UWSP key chain. We hope this will serve as a reminder that,
no matter where life may lead our graduates, they will always have a home at UWSP.
The Alumni Association serves to strengthen the ties between 62,000 Pointer alumni
and their university home. Our alunrni are among this university 's most important
assets and collectively constitute a major force in shaping the reputation of our campus.
The association seeks to help alumni stay in touch with former classmates and friends
who have graduated from UWSP to make their mark, professionally and personally, on
the nation and the world. The association also provides a variety of services to alumni
and friends of UWSP, including the Pointer Alumnus newspaper, alumni reunions,
homecoming, alumni travel, alumni directories and other special events.
All graduates and anyone who has attended UWSP are automatic lifetime members of
the nondues paying association. Support for the Alumni Association is provided in part
by the UWSP Foundation, by proceeds from an alumni endowment and by gifts from
alumni and friends.
All of our alumni share memories of their years at UWSP, and they in turn have
contributed to the success of the campus. We urge you to continue to think of yourself
as a vital participant in the future of your alma mater and always welcome your
support, involvement and ideas.
