    Special honors and Academic Dress
    DISTINGUISHED NEVADAN AWARD
    The Distinguished Nevadan Award is conferred by the Board of Regents of the University and Community College System of Nevada to recognize prominent individuals who are present or former residents of the State of Nevada. The award is presented for significant achievements that contribute to the cultural, economic, scientific, or social advancement of Nevada and its people and for exceptional service to the state or nation that has influenced constructively the well-being of society. The recipient receives an engraved medallion and a special certificate.
    PRESIDENT'S MEDAL
    The President's Medal was first conferred in 1996 to Governor Kenny Guinn. The recipients are selected by the University President to recognize individuals who have provided very special and distinguished service to the University. An engraved medallion and special certificate is presented to each honoree.
    PRESIDENTIAL MEDALLION
    The Presidential Medallion is the official insignia of the University President and is worn at Commencement and other ceremonial occasions. UNLV's Presidential Medallion was given to the University by the Consolidated Students of the University of Nevada (CSUN) in 1973.
    The medallion depicts the official seal of the State of Nevada in sterling silver. Links of the chain are engraved with the names of every University president and their terms of office, symbolizing the continuity of responsibility in the office.
    HONOR SOCIETY MEDALLIONS
    Graduating seniors who have been initiated into UNLV's chapter of Phi Kappa Phi National Honor Society are presented with a bronze medallion hung on a blue ribbon to be worn at Commencement. Each year Chapter 100 at UNLV invites to membership the top 10 percent of the senior class and the top 5 percent of the junior class in all academic disciplines.
    The Golden Key National Honor Society is open to juniors and seniors of all academic disciplines who have earned a 3.30 grade point average or higher. Graduating seniors in this honor society wear a gold medallion on a blue and gold cord.
    CENTENNIAL MEDALLION
    The Nevada Centennial Medallion is presented annually to the graduating senior earning the highest four-year scholastic average at UNLV. A total of 101 medallions were presented to the University by the Rotary Club of Las Vegas at the time of the state's centennial celebration in 1964. The final medallion will be awarded in 2064, the year of Nevada's 200th birthday. The 2000 recipient is Daniel M. Flores.
    GRADUATION WITH HONORS
    Summa cum laude, magna cum laude, and cum laude are the designations for students graduating with a baccalaureate degree who have earned 60 credits at UNLV and have a grade point average that places them in the top 10 percent of students graduating from their college.
    Summa cum laude is bestowed on students who are in the top 1 percent of their college graduating class. Magna cum laude is bestowed on graduating students who are in the top 2 percent to 5 percent, and cum laude is bestowed on graduating students who are in the top 6 percent to 10 percent.
    Students who have achieved the mark of summa cum laude, magna cum laude, or cum laude after their final semester's work will have the honor indicated on their diplomas and final transcripts. The Honors College has different criteria for awarding honors.

    ACADEMIC DRESS
    The academic caps, gowns, and hoods that make the procession so colorful are part of an 800-year tradition. Academic clothing was first worn in medieval universities like Cambridge, Oxford, Paris, and Bologna. The gowns and hoods served a practical purpose in the days of unheated classrooms.
    The European custom was carried to America with the establishment of our own colleges and universities. In 1895 an academic code of dress was adopted, and the standards of a black robe, hood, and cap were accepted by most of the colleges and universities in the United States.
    Different types of black gowns may be distinguished in the academic procession. The bachelors' gowns have long, pointed sleeves; the masters' gowns have oblong sleeves with an arc cut away in the front. The doctors' gowns are faced with velvet and have bell-shaped sleeves with three bars of velvet.
    The Oxford cap, the so-called mortarboard, is black and has a long tassel fastened to the middle of the top that is worn pendant over the right front of the cap. Upon graduation, the tassel is moved from right to Left. The hood, draped from the shoulder, denotes by its length and colors the field of study and the institution that conferred the degree.
    UNIVERSITY MACE
    The University Mace, which has its traditions deeply rooted in history, is carried on ceremonial occasions at the head of the academic procession by the Grand Marshal, whose symbolic duty is the protection of the University, its persons, and its processes.
    The mace, a long club with a ball of iron, steel, or brass at one end, was used in warfare as late as the sixteennth century. The use of the mace as an instrument of ceremony, however, began about the year 1250 in England and France. The mace is
    still used widely today in university ceremonies like commencements and inaugurations.
    The UNLV Mace, cast by UNLV art professor emeritus Michael McCollum in 1970, was created using the lost wax process. Erik Gronborg's design for the cubical head of the mace included facets depicting the university seal, a rendering of the Statue of Liberty, a likeness of Renaissance scholar Leonardo da Vinci, and a shelf of books flanked by artists' brushes.
    The mace bearer today is Douglas Peterson, an Associate Professor of Music with 33 years of service to the university.
    UNLV Alma Mater
    Alma Mater, we praise you For spirit, the eternal flame. Strength which never falters, A tribute to your name.
    Alma Mater, we thank you, Exalted Scarlet and Gray.
    Truth and wisdom from your
    Standard in our minds and hearts will stay.
    Alma Mater, we cherish you.
    And in days that are yet to be, Our voices let us ever raise In honor, U-N-L-V.
