Welcome to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas campus. We are pleased that you are able to join us for this joyous occasion.

On behalf of the faculty, I want to thank you--our guests, our students’ friends and family-for the support you have given our students. I also want to take this opportunity to wish our graduating students continuing success and happiness in the years ahead.

Many people consider training in the liberal arts to be the most practical of educations because it teaches individuals how to think critically and analytically, how to solve problems, how to continue learning-skills that can be taken everywhere and used in any career.
Graduates are expected to return to their seats after receiving their diplomas and to remain seated until the program is concluded.
Guests are asked to remain in their seats until the Recessional is concluded.
A reception for students, their guests, and faculty will be held in the Thomas and Mack Board Room immediately following the ceremony.

CEREMONY PARTICIPANTS
COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER
Graduating seniors who have been initiated into UNLV’s chapter of Phi Kappa Phi National Honor Society are presented with bronze medallions hung on a scarlet or 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.
Dr. John Baugh
Since 1990 Dr. John Baugh has been Professor of Education and Linguistics at Stanford University and Director of the Stanford Teacher Education Program. He received his Ph.D. in Linguistics from the University of Pennsylvania in 1979, and from 1979-1990 taught at the University of Texas in Austin. Dr. Baugh received awards for his teaching at both of these universities, and he is also one of the best-known sociolinguists in the United States. His Black Street Speech: Its History, Structure, and Survival is used around the country as a textbook and has been translated into Japanese. He has published more than 30 articles and book chapters, and his research has been supported by agencies such as the National Science Foundation and the Ford Foundation. His election as president of the American Dialect Society and his selection as a member of the National Science Foundation Advisory Committee for Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences reflect the esteem in which Dr. Baugh is held by his colleagues.

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. These designations are final for August and December graduates, but the designations in the commencement program for May graduates are based on only seven semesters of academic accomplishment since final grades have not yet been tabulated. 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.

ACADEMIC DRESS
The history of academic dress reaches far back into the early days of the oldest universities. It appears that academic clothing was first introduced and worn at Cambridge and Oxford Universities in the thirteenth century.
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 were accepted by most of the colleges and universities in the United States. Today, the black robe, hood, and cap are generally worn.
Three 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 left front of the cap. The hood, draped from the shoulder, denotes by its length and colors the degree and the institution which conferred the degree.
