W elcome The academic procession at the Southwestern Louisiana Institute Commencement ceremony on August 4, 1938. It was the University's first summer Commencement. Dean F.M. Hamilton led the procession followed by (left to right): SLI President L.E. Frazar, and United States Senator Allen J. Ellender. The ceremony was held at Cypress Grove, which, at the time, was solid ground before it was transformed into Cypress Lake in the early 1940s. Welcome, Family and Friends T he University of Louisiana at Lafayette welcomes you, the families and friends of our distinguished graduates. UL Lafayette isn’t just a university. It is a community and you are an important part of it. Since its founding in 1898, the University has been dedicated to improving the lives of its students. We join you in honoring our graduates and celebrating their accomplishments as they begin a new chapter in their lives. Walk of Honor V isitors to the UL Lafayette campus enjoy looking for graduates’ names on the Walk of Honor. The walkway, which begins near Martin Hall and surrounds the Quad, is paved with bricks engraved with graduates’ names, arranged alphabetically by year. The Walk of Honor began with an idea from 1987 Alumni Association President Kenneth Ardoin. A groundbreaking was held in 1991. About 2,300 students are graduated each academic year. 1 A M essage from P resident S avoie To N ew G raduates Congratulations!

Those 18 graduates began a tradition of pride and support for their alma mater and maintaining connections with one another. TM Those connections continue with the University of Louisiana at Lafayette graduating class of Spring 2015. Your experience with the Alumni Association begins upon graduation and stays with you throughout your life. Your Alumni Association membership is complimentary for one year following your graduation. Other alumni may also join the Alumni Association by contributing to the Alumni Loyalty Fund. The Loyalty Fund supports academic and student programs, as well as alumni programs. The Alumni Association also serves the University in many ways; by recruiting students and investing in endowed scholarships. So whether you choose to stay local or relocate afar, there are alumni clubs and chapters in almost every state. What better way to network with fellow alums and meet fellow Ragin’ Cajuns than by attending a club or chapter event in your area. UL Lafayette alumni are ambassadors of our institution its values and its spirit. Please stay informed about what’s happening on campus or in your area! Throughout the year, the Alumni Association disseminates information about news and events. Stay current with us, so we may keep you current about your alma mater!

The Alumni Association Awards Committee, selects the award recipient. College of the Arts Kallie Broussard B.I. Moody III College of Business Administration Trevor Bellard College of Education Katie Stefan College of Engineering Eric Regel College of Liberal Arts Emily K. Broussard College of Nursing & Allied Health Professions Valerie Groze Ray P. Authement College of Sciences Zadid K. Haq University College Aimee LeFleur 3 A bout the U niversity Community service is a hallmark of the university experience at UL Lafayette. It is a course requirement for all first-time freshmen, for example. Each academic year, students contribute about 150,000 hours of service as part of University courses. That service has an estimated value of about $3 million. Some students also participate in UL Lafayette’s AmeriCorps Community Service Program. Established in 1995, it is the only campus-based program in the state and is one of the oldest in the nation. Louisiana’s Cajun and Creole cultures are reflected in the University’s academics. For example, the archives of the Center for Louisiana Studies include one-of-a-kind recordings of Cajun and Creole music, oral histories and storytelling. UL Press specializes in books related to Louisiana, producing award-winning academic titles as well as best-selling general interest books. UL Lafayette’s Francophone studies doctoral degree program is the only one of its kind in the state. And, students may study Louisiana music to earn a bachelor’s degree in traditional music, one of only a handful of such programs nationwide. The University also has a beautiful, vibrant campus. Cypress Lake, a managed wetland, is shaded by its namesake trees and is home to native Louisiana wildlife, including herons, egrets and alligators. Residence halls offer living-learning communities, where students with similar interests live, study and socialize. The University of Louisiana at Lafayette has a reputation for academic excellence, community service and its Ragin’ Cajun spirit. Established in 1898, it is the second-largest university in the state. It has one of the highest graduation rates among Louisiana's public universities. More than 18,000 students choose UL Lafayette each year. To ensure them a strong academic foundation and the best opportunities to compete in the global job market, University officials regularly review curricula to offer contemporary degrees. UL Lafayette has been ranked among the best universities in the nation by U.S. News Media Group, which includes U.S. News and World Report, and by The Princeton Review. It is also the most affordable university in Louisiana and among the top 10 percent of most affordable four-year colleges in the United States, according to the U.S. Department of Education. The University regularly receives support from the National Science Foundation, which funds only the most innovative research. In addition, four faculty have earned the NSF’s Early Career Award, given to outstanding scientists and engineers who have potential for leadership in their fields. University Seal The seal was adopted May 11, 1926, when UL Lafayette was still known as Southwestern Louisiana Institute. Dr. Edwin Stephens, the University’s first president, helped design it, along with Ellsworth Woodward, director of the Newcomb College art school, and John McBryde, a professor at Tulane University. Elements of the seal reflect Louisiana’s history as both a French and Spanish colony. The three fleurs-de-lis refer to France, while the castle denotes Louisiana’s connection to Spain. The pelican is symbolic of Louisiana. Oak leaves represent the strength and endurance of the oak tree. The seal includes the Latin motto “Fortier, Feliciter, Fideliter,” which means “bravely, happily, faithfully.” The institution’s name was updated in 1960, when it was recognized as a university and became the University of Southwestern Louisiana. In 1999, USL’s name was changed to the University of Louisiana at Lafayette to better reflect its stature as the state’s second-largest university and an institution with statewide and national — rather than regional — influence. In that same year, the seal was modified to include elements of the Acadian and Creole flags to reflect the University’s cultural diversity. The gold star on a white background symbolizes Acadian culture; the red, gold and green stripes represent West African heritage. 4 A bout the U niversity Fleur-de-lis UL Lafayette’s fleur-de-lis is a federally registered symbol. Historically, the fleur-de-lis has been associated with the French monarchy, and used in other political and religious contexts. ® The University has used a fleur-de-lis as part of its identity since 1926, when three fleurs-de-lis were introduced in its seal. Academic Dress and Heraldry The academic dress worn by the faculty and administration in the procession today originated in the medieval universities of Europe, where instructors were priests and members of religious orders. Students were clerks in holy orders, monks or priests themselves. In the unheated buildings, they wore habits with cowls, or hoods, that could be pulled over their heads for warmth. In 1894, a commission of American educators met at Columbia College with the leading supplier of academic robes. They created a dress code that was eventually accepted by almost all universities and colleges in the United States. The code was modified slightly in 1932 and remains in use today. Typically, degree candidates wear black gowns. At UL Lafayette, bachelor’s gowns and doctor’s gowns are vermilion; master’s gowns are black. The University’s distinctive fleur-de-lis is incorporated in the design of its graduation gowns. Bachelor’s gowns have pleated fronts, semi-stiff yokes and pointed sleeves. They are worn closed. The master’s gown is worn open, with the forearm protruding through an opening in the long sleeve. The doctor’s gown, also worn open, is more formal, with velvet panels around the neck that extend down the front edges. Three horizontal velvet bars are placed on the upper arm of a squared sleeve. The velvet is usually black, but may instead be a color that reflects the academic discipline related to the degree. The mortarboard is the usual headwear. The most notable feature of academic dress is the hood, reminiscent of the monks’ head coverings. The colors of the lining, folded so that they are exposed in the back, are the official colors and pattern of the university from which the individual received a degree. For those who have received a degree from UL Lafayette, for example, the hood is lined in vermilion with a white chevron. The master’s hood is three and one half feet long, the doctor’s hood, four feet. The color of the velvet border on the hood indicates the academic discipline of the individual’s degree. For example, the Ph.D., or doctor of philosophy degree, is identified by a blue border. You will see that the colors worn by members of the procession at UL Lafayette reflect its academic diversity; faculty have earned advanced degrees from institutions across the United States, as well as abroad. Presidential Regalia The University president wears a handcrafted medallion, a miniature of the University seal, during Commencement and other formal events. Its chain includes small plates engraved with the names of the institution’s presidents. UL Lafayette President Dr. E. Joseph Savoie also wears a lapel pin that once belonged to Dr. Edwin Stephens, the University’s first president, who served from 1900 to 1938. The pin’s design features the letters, “SLII,” which stand for Southwestern Louisiana Industrial Institute. Stephens gave the pin to Dr. Joel Fletcher, the institution’s third president, who served from 1941 to 1966. Fletcher passed it down to his grandson, who gave it to Savoie as an inauguration gift in 2009. University Ring UL Lafayette’s ring signifies the bond between the University’s graduates and their alma mater. The red stone represents the University’s primary color, vermilion, and also features its fleur-de-lis. The design incorporates other elements and images of campus life, including cypress and oak trees, the University’s seal, and Martin Hall, the main administrative building. Inside each ring is the inscription, “heart and hand” — the final three words of the University’s Alma Mater. 5 H onorary D egree R ecipients Jefferson Caffery Doctor of Laws May 23, 1971 Alfred Lamson Doctor of Humanities December 20, 1982 Edward W.

Sulunteh Ambassador of the Republic of Liberia to the United States Ambassador Jeremiah C. Sulunteh is a prominent Liberian politician, administrator and classroom teacher. In the 2005 Liberian presidential elections, he ran as a vice presidential candidate on a ticket with Winston Tubman, but the pair did not survive the first round of balloting. He went on to support the eventual winner, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Liberia’s and Africa’s first democratically elected president. After her inauguration in 2006, she appointed Sulunteh as Liberia’s minister of transport. He served in that role until 2008. He was minister of post and President Barrack Obama and Ambassador Jeremiah C. Sulunteh telecommunications from 2008 to 2010, and minister of labor from 2010 to White House Image/Lawrence Jackson 2012. Sulunteh was broadly credited with beginning the reconstruction of Liberia’s infrastructure after successive civil wars that killed 250,000 people between 1989 and 2003. As labor minister, he championed labor law reform legislation intended to improve workplaces. As minister of transport, he saw to it that an elementary school and junior high school were built in his hometown of Gboimu so children would not have to walk three miles every morning, as he had done, to attend school in Gbondoi. In 2012, Sirleaf appointed Sulunteh as ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of the Republic of Liberia to the United States. Sulunteh was an economics professor at the University of Liberia from 1995-1997 and at Cuttington University in Liberia from 2002-2010. He holds a master’s degree in economics from York University in Toronto, Canada; a master of public administration from American University in Cairo, Egypt; and a bachelor of science degree in economics from Cuttington University in Liberia. Sulunteh began his career as senior commercial aide at the Bong County Agriculture Development Project in Bong County, Liberia, in 1981. He was also project coordinator, Friends of Liberia, from 1995 to 1997; accounts service representative, Royal Bank of Canada, from 1998 to 2000; financial aid adviser, York University, Canada, from 2000 to 2002; and associate vice president for planning and development, Cuttington University, from 2002 to 2005. The ambassador and his wife, Kabeh Sulunteh, have three children. 9 C ommencement G eneral A ssemblY Cajundome • 11:00 a.m. Procession and National Anthem.............................................................................................................
