Edward A. Wayne Medal

The Edward A. Wayne

Medal was established in

1971 to honor individuals

who have made

outstanding contributions

or provided exemplary

services to Virginia

Commonwealth University.

The medal is named

in honor of Edward A.

Wayne, who was chair

of the commission that

led to the establishment

of VCU in 1968 by

the Virginia General

Assembly. Mr. Wayne

served as the university’s

first vice rector.

James P. Neifeld, M.D., joined the faculty of Virginia Commonwealth University’s School of Medicine as an assistant professor in surgi-cal oncology in 1978 and became professor of surgery in 1986. In 2003, he was appointed the Stuart McGuire Professor and chair of the Department of Surgery, a position he held for more than 10 years. Jim attended Lafayette College and received a Doctor of Medicine from VCU’s School of Medicine in 1972. He completed his internship and residency at VCU, and spent two years in the surgery branch of the National Cancer Institute.

Jim is a member of the VCU Athletics and Golf advisory boards. He has served on the VCU Health System Authority Board, the council of the American College of Surgeons Virginia chapter, and as president of the Virginia Surgical Society and the Humera Surgical Society.

Ramona S. Neifeld attended the State University of New York at Geneseo and gradu-ated from St. Joseph’s in nursing. As an RN, she worked in oncology and volunteered at St. James the Less Free Clinic. Ramona is involved in lay leadership, teaching and outreach at St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church. She and Jim serve on the Make It Real Campaign for VCU Senior Advisory Council.

Jim and Ramona are longtime donors to the Massey Cancer Center and School of Medicine. In 2011, they established the Herbert S. and Elinor C. Neifeld Scholarship in Medicine in honor of Jim’s parents. Passionate supporters of VCU Athletics, they created the Neifeld Family Scholarship for Golf and supported construction of VCU Athletics’ Basketball Development Center and the VCU golf practice facility at First Tee. For years, Jim hosted the annual Janney Invitational College-Am golf tournament benefitting the VCU golf program.

The Neifelds reside in Montpelier, Va., and have two children, Emily and Jillian. Jillian holds a master’s degree in forensic science from VCU.

2019 RecipientsRamona S. Neifeld and James P. Neifeld, M.D.


Academic Costume

The academic costume worn at American college exercises derives from the Middle Ages. Theoldest universities of northern Europe, such as Paris and Oxford, grew out of church schools,and both faculty and students were regarded in the Middle Ages as a part of the clergy. They woreclerical habits, largely borrowed from the monas-tic dress of that day, not just on special occasions but as their regular attire. The head covering of the academic costume developed from the skull cap worn by the clergyin cold weather to protect the tonsured head. In the universities, the skull cap acquired a point ontop, which evolved into a tassel. The bonnet with tassel is still worn by degree holders of Europeanuniversities. In America, it has been replaced by the familiar mortar board, which still retainsthe medieval tassel. The hood (the medieval caputium) was origi-nally a covering worn over the head in bad weath-er, otherwise dropped on the shoulders as the monk’s cowl. At first it was worn by faculty and students alike, but in the early 16th century it was restricted to graduates, thus becoming the mark of a degree holder. Today, each college has its distinctive hood lining by which its graduates may be recognized in academic processions. Graduates from Virginia Commonwealth University may wear a hood showing a black chevron on gold background. The gown comes from the medieval robe and seems to have been borrowed from the habit of the Benedictine monks. In the Middle Ages, undergraduates, bachelors and masters could be

distinguished by the simplicity or intricacy of their gowns. The doctor’s gown was often furred, which survives today in the ornamentation found on the doctoral gown. Usually the gown is black, but some colleges have gowns of different colors. The wide velvet borders extending down the front of the doctoral gown, the velvet bars on the sleeves, and the borders of most hoods are colored according to the scholarly field of the wearer.

Alma MaterIn March 2016, VCU Alumni’s board of governors approved Virginia Commonwealth University’s first alma mater, “We Gather Here.” Written by Lemont “Monty” Kier, Ph.D., a longtime faculty member, and his son, Andy Kier, a 1990 VCU graduate, the school song honors the university’s commitment to providing students with experiences that they carry with them beyond their years on campus.

“We Gather Here”

Lyrics: Monty Kier Music: Andy Kier

We gather here, our voices raise, of VCU we sing our praise,

the Black and Gold our colors show, diversity and value grow.

We’ve learned so much beyond each class, the joy of friendship will not pass. So much in life is mem’ry borne,

of VCU they’ll not be shorn.

The mem’ries of a campus walk, so many friends, we stop to talk,

the friendships here were made to last, they’re in our minds though years have passed.

The seasons pass, the years roll by, from VCU the reason’s why

we are enriched from values learned, they bring us joy that we have earned.

Next year again we will be here to see our school and give a cheer.

So VCU keep all that is great, you’ve brought us joy that is our fate.

So come let us sing of VCU, with ev’ry verse we will renew

the mem’ries from our campus time, each one embedded in a rhyme.


Dear graduate,

On behalf of VCU Alumni, I am privileged and honored to congratulate you on this wonderful occasion. Although you likely received support and encouragement from your families and friends, this is a personal achievement that is a tribute to your hard work and perseverance.

As you bring this chapter of your academic career to a close, I hope you will take a moment to recognize the opportunities that your university and alumni organization have provided to prepare you for this next step in your journey. You might be leaving campus, but you are not leaving alone. As a graduate, you join a community of more than 200,000 alumni throughout the world who engage with their communities and their alma mater to build on the strong foundation established by our past and present alumni organizations and leaders.

Your relationship with your alma mater can enhance and impact your life long after you graduate. This is an exciting time to become part of VCU Alumni. We welcome ALL graduates. Our goal is to find more and more programs and events that will bring you back to campus often. No matter where life takes you, VCU Alumni is a great way to connect and engage with the University and your fellow classmates.

My wish for each of you is that you realize your full potential and, in doing so, use your significant talents and energies to support and strengthen your communities, your alumni organization and your university.

Be proud of your university because we are proud of you.

Yours for VCU,

Dale C. Kalkofen, Ed.D. (M.A.E.’76/A)President, VCU Alumni


What we now know as Virginia Commonwealth University began as two institutions: the Medical College of Virginia, established in 1838 as the medi-cal department of Hampden-Sydney College, and the Richmond School of Social Economy, founded independently in 1917 and then becoming the Richmond division of the College of William & Mary in 1925.

The Medical College of Virginia gained inde-pendence from Hampden-Sydney in 1854 and became state-affiliated in 1860. In 1939, the College of William & Mary changed the name of its Richmond campus to Richmond Professional Institute. RPI became an independent state school in 1962.

In 1967, Edward A. Wayne Sr., president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, along with city and state leaders recommended the formation of a university using resources from MCV and RPI. With the signa-ture of Gov. Mills E. Godwin Jr., Virginia Commonwealth University came into being in 1968 with Warren W. Brandt as president.

Today, President Michael Rao, Ph.D., is the lead-er of VCU and VCU Health System. A premier, urban public research university, VCU has gar-nered $310 million in sponsored research and ranks 54th nationally among public universities for feder-ally funded research. In 2019, U.S. News & World Report ranked VCU 38th for ethnic diversity, 45th for social mobility and 76th among top public uni-versities. The ranking organization also listed sev-eral VCU graduate and first-professional programs in the top 50 of their rankings. The School of the Arts, ranked second overall, holds the top ranking among public institutions. Among graduate and

first-professional rankings, VCU’s nurse anesthesia program is top in the nation. The same publication ranked VCU Medical Center’s state-of-the-art care in more than 200 specialty areas among the best in the nation. A safety-net hospital, VCU Medical Center is the top hospital in the metro area and is the only Level I medical center in Central Virginia. Additionally, the medical center is ranked second in the commonwealth as the top place to seek medical care and treatment in areas ranging from

organ transplantation and burn healing to head and spinal cord trauma and cancer treatment.

The university has a diverse community with an enrollment of more than 31,000 students from 108 countries in 217 degree and certificate programs — 37 of which are unique to Virginia and serve crossdisciplinary pur-poses. VCU also employs over 2,200 full-time instructional faculty who are nationally and internationally recognized for their research and instruction across 14 schools and colleges.

With campuses beyond Richmond, VCU students and faculty live and work in locations throughout the commonwealth and the world. For over a decade, students enrolled at VCU School of the Arts Qatar receive the same world-renowned education and training as students in Richmond. In Charlottesville, the School of Pharmacy’s second satellite location for Doctor of Pharmacy students operates at the University of Virginia Medical Center.

Since 2012, both four- and six-year graduation rates have increased by more than 14 percent-age points. More than 200,000 VCU alumni live worldwide, leading and positively impacting their communities.
