THE PRESIDENT

Christopher A. Capuano became the University’s eighth president on July 1, 2016, following the retirement of President Sheldon Drucker. Capuano previously held a series of leadership positions at the University over a period of more than 25 years, most recently as University provost and senior vice president for academic affairs. As the key leader in the development of the

University’s five-year strategic plan, his main focus is implementing the plan and further raising the University stature. As University provost, he provided important decision making in forming a strong leadership team in the School of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, which resulted in consistent enrollment growth and full accreditation with the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education. In addition, he was instrumental in securing a large gift to support the University’s new Daniel and Martina Lewis Center for Healthcare Innovation and Technology. Prior to becoming University provost and senior vice president for academic affairs, Capuano served as vice provost for international affairs. In that position, he provided oversight of the University’s Office of Global Partnerships and worked closely with the University’s Office of Global Learning to facilitate study abroad and other international initiatives. Moreover, he led the development of the University’s new campus in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and served as the Vancouver Campus provost for a year during a critical transition period. As director of the School of Psychology for nearly 15 years and a former doctoral faculty member in the University’s Ph.D. Program in Clinical Psychology and Psy.D. Program in School Psychology — Capuano provided important leadership in developing the school into one of the largest and more prestigious schools at the University. His many accomplishments in this position included establishment of the postdoctoral certificate program in clinical psychopharmacology and its transition to a postdoctoral Master of Science degree program — a program that has earned

6

national recognition and is currently only one of just a few programs recognized by the American Psychological Association for postdoctoral training in clinical psychopharmacology. As a former faculty member and biopsychologist by training, Capuano introduced and taught key compulsory courses in both doctoral programs in the School of Psychology. His research included the design, implementation and supervision of experiments in neuropsychopharmacology and health psychology. Capuano earned his Ph.D. in biopsychology and two master’s degrees from the Graduate and University Center of the City University of New York, as well as his B.S. in biological sciences from Purdue University.

THE UNIVERSITY

Fairleigh Dickinson University looks back with tremendous pride to the accomplishments achieved and looks ahead to even greater levels of excellence. Founded in 1942 by Dr. Peter Sammartino and his wife, Sylvia (Sally), Fairleigh Dickinson University has grown into the largest private university in New Jersey. More than 12,000 students from 37 states and 88 other countries are enrolled on FDU’s two campuses in New Jersey and its overseas campuses in Wroxton, England, and Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Beginning as a two-year junior college in Rutherford, today the University offers more than 100 degree programs at the associate, baccalaureate, master’s and doctoral levels. Fairleigh Dickinson University strongly emphasizes an international component in its curriculum and provides its students with a global and multi-cultural perspective. The University has consistently been an innovator, adapting to the changing educational demands of the students it serves. Responding to the need for higher education in northern New Jersey, the college expanded to four-year curricula in 1948.

In 1954, the first graduate program ― a

master’s degree in business administration ― was offered, and Bergen Junior College in

Teaneck was purchased as a second campus. In 1956, Fairleigh Dickinson attained university status. One year later, the beautiful 178-acre Vanderbilt-Twombly estate in Florham Park and Madison, New Jersey, was acquired to serve as another campus. FDU became the first American university to own a campus in England when it acquired Wroxton College from Trinity College, Oxford University. Opened in 1965, Wroxton College offers American students an array of graduate and undergraduate programs as well as an enriching cultural experience. Formerly a 13th century abbey, Wroxton College is now a beautifully restored and modernized Jacobean mansion. Over the years, Fairleigh Dickinson University has maintained its commitment to broadening global horizons and fostering greater international understanding. In 2000, the Board of Trustees adopted a newly focused mission for FDU: to prepare students for world citizenship through global education. In addition to Wroxton College, the University opened its second international campus in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada in fall 2007. The Vancouver Campus offers three undergraduate degree programs in Information Technology, Business Administration and Individualized Studies as well as two master degree programs in Administrative Science and Hospitality Management Studies. Since first opening in 2007, students from over 80 countries have benefited from FDU’s mission to prepare world citizens through global education. In FDU’s intensive, student-centered learning

8

environment, Vancouver students grow as citizens of an increasingly interconnected and interdependent world. The Vancouver Campus is located in Yaletown, a vibrant and diverse district surrounded by the hustle and bustle of downtown life. A second brand new location was opened in 2020 only a few minutes away from the main Vancouver Campus. In fourteen years, FDU has made strong inroads in establishing itself as a part of the educational landscape of the province of British Columbia, where it is the first non-Canadian university to receive the distinction of permission of the Ministry of Advanced Education’s Degree Quality Assurance Board to grant degrees in the province. Each of the University campuses has developed a unique character and vitality. The Metropolitan Campus, located in Teaneck, features a university atmosphere with an international perspective attracting nearly equal numbers of graduate and undergraduate students from throughout the United States and around the world. Fairleigh Dickinson’s Florham Campus in suburban Madison offers a classical undergraduate and graduate experience for the contemporary world in a small college setting. With the depth and breadth of its faculty and programs, Fairleigh Dickinson University has positioned itself as a quality, comprehensive private university serving global citizens throughout the world.

THE ACADEMIC COSTUME The academic regalia worn by University officials and faculty at today’s commencement ceremony are infrequently seen outside of formal academic occasions. The gowns, caps and hoods once were regular apparel of European university students and faculty during the Middle Ages. At that time, both faculty and students were considered part of the clergy and were required to don the ecclesiastical dress, roba and caputum, patterned after the habit of the Benedictine Order. The regalia also served a practical purpose, providing warmth in the unheated stone buildings of most medieval universities. In the United States, caps and gowns had been in limited use by colleges and universities since Colonial times. It was not until a century later that a widespread student movement resulted in the formal use of the attire at commencement ceremonies. Faculty members readily accepted the return to a dignified and traditional dress for graduations and soon extended the custom to other formal academic functions. By 1895, a uniform code for academic dress had been adopted in the United States, and although no formal worldwide standards have ever existed, certain basic and traditional elements are evident in most academic attire.

The Gowns

Participants in academic ceremonies are expected to wear the regalia to which they are entitled by virtue of the highest degree they hold. Gowns worn by those with bachelor’s degrees are distinguished by a semi-stiff yoke, long pleated front, intricate shirring across the shoulders and back and long pointed

9

sleeves open at the wrists. The gown must be worn closed. Master’s degree holders wear a similar gown of either silk or wool with the same yoke effect as the bachelor’s degree robe. The master’s gown may be worn either open or closed in the front. Other variations in the master’s degree gown include oblong and square cut sleeves closed at the wrists and an arc-like section of material in the front of the garment. The doctor’s gown, also worn either open or closed, is usually made of silk and velvet with full and rounded sleeves open at the wrists. These gowns are distinguished by long velvet panels down the front of the gown and three horizontal velvet sleeve bars, which may be either black or the color distinctive of the academic discipline in which the individual holds the doctoral degree. Although the color of these gowns is traditionally black, some institutions have adopted robes in their school colors.

The Caps

The most familiar item of academic regalia is the Oxford or mortarboard cap with its distinctive tassel. Explanations of its origin include suggestions that its shape was inspired by the quadrangular Oxford campus or by the actual master workman’s mortarboard. Perhaps a more plausible theory is that it was designed flat and about the size of a scholar’s book for ease in carrying. Material for most caps varies from serge and broadcloth to rayon and silk, although caps worn by doctoral degree recipients may be of velvet.

The most distinctive feature of the cap is the tassel, which is positioned to hang from the left front quadrant of the cap. The tassel is black for bachelor’s and master’s degree holders, but gold for Ph.D.s and the primary governing officials of an institution. While the mortarboard cap is used by the vast majority of institutions around the world, some schools have adopted a soft, square-topped cap, but still retain the tassel.

The Hoods

The most distinctive feature of academic attire, the hood lends color and definition to academic ceremonies. Once used as a head covering a shoulder cape and even a receptacle for collecting alms in medieval times, the hood is now a purely ceremonial black shell of varying sizes and colored borders suspended from the shoulders and worn down the back. The significance of academic hoods is symbolized in their varying lengths and the colors and thicknesses of their velvet linings and trim. Master’s degree recipients wear a hood three-and-a-half feet long with a three-inch border. Doctoral hoods are four feet long and have a five-inch-wide border. More distinctive, however, are the colors of the hoods’ inner linings and outer trim. The colors of the inner lining correspond to the colors of the institution conferring the degree, while the colors of the border designate the academic discipline in which the degree was granted.

THE TALKING STICK The Talking Stick is a ceremonial carving that is commonly used by First Nations peoples during gatherings and meetings to determine who has the right to speak. Only the person holding the Talking Stick has the right to speak. All others should remain silent and listen to the speaker. When that person finished speaking, the stick would be passed to the next person. It is used to help people work together, and helps to ensure everyone has the opportunity to express their opinions in a fair and open way. Sometimes an Eagle feather would be tied to a Talking Stick which would give the person the courage and wisdom to speak wisely and

truthfully. It is considered a great honor to hold the Talking Stick. Talking Sticks are carved representing the images of the group it represents. The Fairleigh Dickinson University Talking Stick has been carved by Squamish First Nations artist, Darren Yelton. It incorporates images used by the Squamish people to depict the vision and mission of Fairleigh Dickinson University and its Vancouver Campus.

The Eagle

The Eagle is the ruler of the sky and has the ability to transform itself and is also has the closest connection with our creator. It has great intellectual abilities. The Eagle is a sacred, wise and noble creature representing power and prestige, is one who oversees things and represents the global perspective. The gift the Eagle shares is the ability of foresight, and an indication of good times to come.

The Welcome Man

The Welcome Man is depicted by the Squamish First Nations people with hands pointing out to welcome all people to their community and to promote peace and understanding.

The Grizzly Bear

The bear symbolizes family, strength, vitality, courage and health. It symbolizes how Fairleigh Dickinson University is like a family, and students should draw courage and strength through their association with the University. It also conveys a wish to all who are associated with the University to have courage and good health.

11

The Killer Whale

The Killer Whale is the protector and guardian of the seas and symbolizes kindness, intelligence and compassion. The Whale or Orca is also known as the guardian of travel and can also be a symbol for unity and goodness.

The Salmon

The Salmon Symbolizes instinct, determination and persistence. The Salmon is also a symbol of abundance, wealth and prosperity because the Salmon is the primary food source for the people of the Northwest Coast. It is also symbolic of dependability and renewal representing the provider of life. Salmon in pairs is good luck.

THE PRESIDENT’S MEDALLION

Along with the traditional academic regalia and trappings common to colleges and universities throughout the United States, most institutions also possess some unique or distinctive symbol of the presidential office that is conveyed through succeeding administrations. Fairleigh Dickinson University commissioned the design and crafting of a President’s medallion for the inauguration of Robert H. Donaldson on March 29, 1985. The President’s Medallion is in the form of a hexagonal shield, a variation of the University “Shield of Arms.” In the center of the Medallion is the gold-plated coat of arms. The motto, Fortiter et Suaviter (Bravely and Pleasurably), is engraved above the shield, and around it are engraved the words “Fairleigh Dickinson University

1942”). The gold-plated frame of the Medallion is surmounted by a crest consisting of buildings symbolizing the campuses. Kurt J. Matzdorf, professor of gold and silversmithing emeritus at the State University of New York at New Platz, and internationally known for his ceremonial and religious silver, designed and created the President’s Medallion.

Vancouver Campus

FIRST NATIONS REPRESENTATION

For the past years, FDU Vancouver has been honored with the presence of Eugene Harry and Darren Yelton, Squamish First Nations, at its annual Commencement Ceremony. Eugene and Darren have inspired many generations of students through their wisdom and compassion towards others. This year is the eleventh occasion they accompany us in this magnificent event and FDU Vancouver is proud to have them as part of this celebration.

Eugene Harry Squamish First Nations Elder Eugene Harry (XiQuelem) is a member of the Cowichan Tribes. He is a Shaker Church minister in the Squamish Nation and also works at Vancouver Native Health. For more than thirty years Eugene has ministered at the Indian Shaker Church, a unique meld of aboriginal and Christian beliefs. Also, he has been Cultural Adviser at the BC Aboriginal Child Care Society since 2007.

Darren Yelton

Squamish First Nations Darren was born in North Vancouver, BC, in 1961 and began carving at the age of thirteen with his father and two brothers Jim and Tony. Darren has developed his own unique West Coast style, incorporating images of animals that come from family crests and legends common to the Coast Salish Community. Through his art, Darren Yelton has indeed given much to the world and is at the same time preserving his cultural background through his teachings and artwork for future generations.

O CANADA Justice Robert Stanley Weir

O Canada!

Our home and native land! True patriot love in all of us command.

With glowing hearts we see thee rise,

The True North strong and free!

From far and wide, O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

God keep our land glorious and free!

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNER Francis Scott Key

Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light

What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?

Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,

O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?

And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,

Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.

Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
