Commencement is a significant and solemn event, recognizing years of study and sacrifice.

We also ask that cellular phones be turned off during the ceremony.

Please withhold your applause during the presentation of degrees until each degree group is acknowledged and the candidates have returned to their seats.

An appropriate costume is a necessary part of Commencement. The costume includes a cap, a gown, and a hood. Each part of the costume has special significance. The most common headpiece (or cap) for the ceremony is the black square, flat-topped, or "mortar board" type with gold or black tassel. It is called a "mortar board" because it is shaped like the board of the mason which holds mortar. Recently, we are seeing large velvet Tam-O-Shanter style of headpieces replacing the mortar board. Some of the velvet tarns are brilliantly colored such as orange or bright blue.

The hood can be the most colorful part of the entire costume. The colors inside the hood are those of the college or university which is awarding the degree. The colors of the outside rim of the hood symbolizes one of the following departments of learning:

Agriculture Maize

Architecture Lavender

Arts, Letters, Humanities White

Commerce, Accountancy, Business Drab

Dentistry Lilac

Economics Copper

Education Light Blue

The tassel on the doctor's cap is usually gold, and permanently fastened on the left side. The master's cap has a black tassel worn on the left. The bachelor's cap has a black tassel worn on the right prior to graduation then moved to the left during the ceremony.

The gown is usually black. The traditional doctor's gown has velvet panels down the front and three velvet bars on the regular sleeves. The master's gown has no velvet, but does have unusually long sleeves. The bachelor's gown is similar to the master's gown but has regular long sleeves which tend to be pointed.

Some gowns may be in the color of the department granting the degree, such as "Education Blue." Others may be "Yale Blue" or "Harvard Crimson" for the graduates of these universities. Customized stoles honor those students who have served the nation in the Armed Forces.

STATE OF TEXAS OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR

A Message from the Governor:

I am pleased and honored to extend greetings to everyone attending the Prairie View A&M University 2019 Spring Commencement Convocation.

Today, as you celebrate your achievements and the honor you have earned as graduates of this fine institution, Texas celebrates with you. You have demonstrated excellence and can take great pride in your accomplishments.

The diploma you receive today is not only the goal you have worked diligently to attain, but also a symbol of the education that has prepared you for a career, a productive life and an active membership in a society that needs your talents and energy.

You are the inheritors of not only the freedom and prosperity of this great state and nation, but also the responsibilities that accompany them. I encourage you to rise to the challenge by building upon the foundation laid by the men and women who have come before you.

I am sure the milestone you celebrate today is only one of many achievements you can look forward to. I encourage you to recognize the support system that helped you reach this place —families, friends, teachers and professors — and to take the time to thank and honor them. The success you know today is the work of many, and those relationships will guide you as you continue on your way.

First Lady Cecilia Abbott joins me in sending best wishes for your continued success.

ALMA MATER DEAR PRAIRIE VIEW

Dear Prairie View, our song to thee we raise, In gratitude we sing our Hymn of praise,

For mem'ries dear, for friends and recollections, For lessons learned while here we've lived with thee.

For these we pledge our hearts full of devotion, To serve thee now, and through eternity.

As days go by, our hearts will not grow cold, We'll love thy purple royal and thy gold,

We'll through our lives exemplify thy teachings, We'll always strive a blessing to be.

Thy children we our love and pride confessing, We'll love thee now, and through eternity.

Words by O. Anderson Fuller Music from "Finlandia" by Sibelius
