HONORING JAMES MADISON Learned Institutions ought to be favorite objects with every free people They throw that light over the public mind which is the best security against crafty and dangerous encroachments on the public liberty They are nurseries of skillful Teachers for the schools distributed throughout the Community They are themselves Schools for the particular talents required for some of the public Trusts, on the able execution of which the welfare of the people depends They multiply the educated individuals from among whom the people may elect a due portion of their public agents of every description; more especially of those who are to frame the laws; by the perspicuity, the consistency, and the stability, as well as by the just and equal spirit of which the great social purposes are to be answered … What spectacle can be more edifying or more seasonable, than that of Liberty and Learning, each leaning on the other for their mutual and surest support? To William T Barry, Aug 1822, DLC: Madison Papers James Madison University is the only university named for James Madison, the “father of the U.S Constitution” and fourth president of the United States In many ways the connection to Mr Madison’s legacy is much deeper than the name only As we prepare to celebrate commencement, it is important for us to bring Mr Madison to life for our university community For acknowledging Madison is not intended as a history lesson We believe that understanding Madison and his achievements is understanding liberty and its foundations And, if each graduate can leave this university with that awareness crowning their outstanding JMU education, then liberty can be multiplied wherever they may go President James Madison himself expressed this notion well when he wrote to Congress that when well-instructed graduates returned to their communities, “… sources of jealousy and prejudice would be diminished, the features of national character would be multiplied, and greater extent given to social harmony.” Most JMU students are Virginians with only one-third of students coming from throughout the U.S and over 80 countries So, if what James Madison wrote is true for this the graduating class of 2016, James Madison University will proudly send nearly 4,500 agents of liberty and social harmony to the Commonwealth of Virginia and throughout the world THE JAMES MADISON UNIVERSITY SEAL The official seal of James Madison University is based upon the baronial 13th-century coat of arms of the Madison family The shape of the shield signifies its historic periods and the symbols are original The mantling and insignia are black upon a silver shield with two black chevrons, each charged with a golden star The torch in the crest position signifies enlightenment, and the motto, “Knowledge is Liberty,” is derived from quotations by James Madison –4– Graduation 1910 FOUNDING JAMES MADISON UNIVERSITY Over one hundred years ago, James Madison University came into being when Virginia Governor Claude A Swanson signed the legislation creating the State Normal and Industrial School for Women at Harrisonburg The bill that had been passed by the General Assembly four days earlier was a result of a political compromise that created not only today’s James Madison University but also what-would-become the University of Mary Washington Early in the 20th century, the General Assembly, responding to a growing interest in public higher education in Virginia, authorized the establishment of a new normal school for the education of women teachers (“Normal” schools were so named because they were supposed to set the standard – or “norm” – for excellence.) The idea of a new college was highly attractive to communities throughout the commonwealth There was widespread competition in the state with 28 cities and towns making a case to be the site for the new school Citizens of Harrisonburg lobbied long and hard to acquire the new normal Townspeople held a major public rally in January 1908 to show their support for the institution Legislators visiting the city later were lavishly wined and dined and given a demonstration of the prowess of the Harrisonburg Fire Department When the 1908 session of the General Assembly began, the state was ready to appropriate funds for the new normal The debate among the legislators quickly boiled down to three finalists: Fredericksburg, Harrisonburg and Radford State Senator George B Keezell and Delegate P.B.F Good of Rockingham County led the efforts for Harrisonburg in the State Senate and House of Delegates Radford was eliminated from the debate but the two houses of the legislature split on their choices The State Senate backed Harrisonburg and the House of Delegates supported Fredericksburg A compromise was reached, allowing the creation of two new normal schools – one in Harrisonburg and one in Fredericksburg The bill passed both houses on March 10, 1908, with Governor Swanson signing the bill on March 14 that created one State and Normal and Industrial School for Women in Harrisonburg and one in Fredericksburg When Senator Keezell and Delegate Good returned to Harrisonburg, they were greeted by a throng of local residents at an enthusiastic reception The Harrisonburg Daily News said Harrisonburg had not given such a warm welcome to anyone since President William McKinley visited the city in 1899 The welcome rally included a parade through the city and a public meeting at a packed Assembly Hall in the courthouse At the meeting, Harrisonburg Mayor O.B Roller called it “the proudest moment in the history of Harrisonburg.” The Harrisonburg school began classes on Sept 30, 1909, with an enrollment of 150, and 15 faculty members in two buildings on a 50-acre campus Today’s James Madison University has over 20,500 students, more than 2,500 faculty and staff, and a 721-acre campus with more than 100 buildings –5– THE UNIVERSITY CEREMONIAL MACE Once a fierce battle weapon, the mace began losing its warlike image eight centuries ago when it started to become a symbol of peaceful leadership Kings began removing spikes from their maces and encrusting them with jewels and precious metals for ceremonial use Since then, the mace has been used in ceremonial processionals as an ensign of authority The James Madison University mace was first used in 1979 on Founders Day (now James Madison Day) It is carried by the marshal of the JMU Faculty Senate during all formal faculty processionals The faculty marshal precedes the platform party in processionals and recessionals Funds for the mace were donated by the JMU Class of 1943 Commissioned by the JMU Faculty Senate, the mace was created by Ronald J Wyancko, retired professor of art and art history The mace is made of sterling silver, 14 karat gold, rosewood and ebony It weighs four pounds and stands 37 inches high The upper node of the mace is textured to symbolize the blue limestone used on the original buildings on campus The lower node represents the brick used on newer buildings The JMU crest is at the top of the mace The butt cap of the mace is inlaid with the name of the university and the date of its founding There are five ebony designs around the main node of the mace: President James Madison, the State Seal of the Commonwealth of Virginia, a book representing the search for knowledge, the flame of eternal truth and Wilson Hall representing the JMU campus THE UNIVERSITY CHAIN OF OFFICE AND UNIVERSITY MEDALLION James Madison University’s chain of office and university medallion will be worn by President Jonathan R Alger during today’s commencement ceremony The chain of office refers to the authority granted to the president by the JMU Board of Visitors and the Commonwealth of Virginia to confer degrees and lead the university The medallion is symbolic of the office of president of the university The chain and medallion were created in 1999 by Ronald J Wyancko, retired professor of art and art history He also created the university mace nearly 30 years ago Creation of the institutional chain and medallion was made possible through a gift from the JMU Parents Council The chain of office is made of sterling silver and two gems — a golden citrine and a purple amethyst — reflecting JMU’s school colors The gems are set in the circular sterling silver medallions that are incorporated into the chain One medallion is textured like bluestone to symbolize the older buildings on JMU’s campus The other medallion features a brick texture to reflect the university’s newer buildings The university medallion that hangs from the chain features the seal of James Madison University, the university’s name and the date of its founding, 1908 The design for the JMU seal is based on the coat of arms of the Madison family and contains the words “Knowledge is Liberty,” a quotation from James Madison –6– A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT OF JMU Welcome to the 107th JMU BOARD AND ADMINISTRATION Board of Visitors Ms Vanessa M Evans-Grevious Rector

The lining of the hood carries the colors of the college or university conferring the degree The cap worn is usually the mortarboard, decorated with a tassel in a color symbolizing the field of higher learning Standard colors are used to represent the various academic disciplines Some of the colors that will be seen in today’s ceremony indicate the following fields: White: Bachelor of Arts (BA), Masters (MA), Masters, Teaching (MAT), Graduate Student Association (white cords); Gold: Bachelor of Science (BS), Masters (MS); Drab Brown: Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA), Masters, Business Administration (MBA); Brown: Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA), Masters, Fine Arts (MFA); Pink: Bachelor of Music (BM), Masters, (MM); Light Blue: Masters of Science in Education (MSEd); Citron: Bachelor of Social Work (BSW); Apricot: Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN); Peacock Blue: Masters, Public Administration (MPA); Kelly Green: Masters, Physicians Assistant Studies (MPAS) (– December only at JMU); Sage Green: Masters, Occupational Therapy (MOT) (– December only at JMU); Silver: Bachelor of Individual Studies (BIS); Orange: Bachelor of Science in Engineering (BSE) Gold tassels may be worn by holders of doctoral degrees, and some master’s tassels are white For the doctor’s degree, the cap is velvet Candidates for degrees wear tassels on the right side of the mortarboard and then shift them to the left in unison when the degree is conferred HONOR CORDS AND STOLES Graduates are permitted to wear cords, stoles, medals and pins on their commencement gowns Honor cords are typically lengths of cording with small tassels on each end They are worn draped around the neck and allowed to dangle down the gown’s facings For example, the Graduate Student Association members wear white cords Occasionally the cords are made of two strands twisted together to show two colors Stoles are made of stain or velvet and resemble a man’s oversized necktie with two wide ends and draped around the neck to hang loosely down the gown’s front They are usually embroidered with an insignia These accessories typically indicate academic honors, such as cum laude, magna cum laude, or summa cum laude; students who have completed university honors curriculums; or membership in honor societies such as Phi Beta Kappa, etc The popularity of this practice has led other campus organizations to wear cords and/or stoles, such as the Student Government Association, College Student Personnel Administration, University Program Board, Centennial Scholars Program, and sororities and fraternities –8– THE GRADUATE SCHOOL The JMU Graduate School has a rich history of offering timely and high-quality FLAG OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL The Graduate School of James Madison University was established in 1954 The image of Mr Madison’s Temple exemplifies his intelligence, his love of the classics, natural beauty and the useful and practical ways of men The civic architecture, reminiscent of the ancient republic of Rome, was chosen by James Madison to symbolize his vision for the new American republic Madison’s quote that “Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors, must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives” is at the heart of graduate education programs to serve its student body Graduate-level classes were first offered in cooperation with the University of Virginia in 1951 Our initial courses offered specialized teacher education programs, and the JMU Graduate School was established in 1954, when the State Board of Education authorized the university to offer programs leading to the Master of Science in Education degree Our offerings gradually expanded to 48 degree programs, many with multiple concentrations, and nine graduate certificate programs JMU launched its first doctoral program in 2002; we now offer eight doctoral programs Graduate programs are offered in each of the seven academic colleges within the university For the last two decades, U.S News and World Report has ranked JMU either first or second among the top public master’s-level schools in the south, with eleven graduate programs nationally ranked Over the years, our graduate portfolio has grown in response to the needs of the commonwealth, the expertise of our faculty, and the interests of our students Consistent with JMU’s commitment to combining academic and practical experiences for its students, the diverse graduate programs reflect the university’s innovation and vision for equipping graduates with the best tools for success Graduate students have the opportunity to expand their knowledge and experience through engaging classes, research projects, study abroad opportunities, internships and externships We encourage and support students as they present their scholarly and creative work at professional conferences These opportunities allow students to develop professional identities as scholars, artists, musicians, clinicians, practitioners, educators, and more Such diverse experiences prepare our graduate students for leadership roles within their professions Graduating students carry with them a strong academic foundation coupled with practical experience and the high level of engagement for which JMU is well known COLLEGE OF ARTS AND LETTERS Political Science John Jordan Burns, M.A Lewis
