Important Note:
Updated Important Note for Program: Important Note: Because this online booklet is prepared before the final semester grades are submitted, the list of graduates, honors, and honor societies may not be accurate. In addition, some students may not be listed because they completed degree requirements later than anticipated and missed the booklet preparation deadline. All degrees and declaration of related honors will be confirmed and validated via official transcript, which will include all grades for courses completed through the past semester. In all cases, the actual awarding of a degree by the university is subject to verification by the Registrar. Therefore, these exercises are to be considered ceremonial. If you believe a mistake has been made in this booklet, please contact the Office of Registrar at RegistrarsOffice@alvernia.edu and the Office of Marketing and Communications at Marketing@alvernia.edu.

Affinity Stoles
These Alvernia Red stoles, worn by undergraduates and five-year master’s program students, recognize and celebrate the accomplishments of the graduate. The attached pins represent the clubs and services students participated in during their time with the university. The stoles also provide an opportunity for graduates to honor those who have helped them achieve their milestones by writing names on the inside of the stole. During this time of reflection and new beginnings, students can keep the stole or present this to a family member or friend that has supported their scholarly pursuit.
Honorary Degree Recipient
George S. Rice, Jr. ’85
Managing Partner, Skyhawk Global Associates
Alvernia University Class of 2024
Honorary Degree of Humane Letters
An experienced senior executive and a natural at connecting people and organizations while building beneficial strategies, George S. Rice, Jr. is recognized as a global authority on generating insights, actions and planning capabilities for companies, non-governmental organizations, academic institutions and government agencies.
His expertise includes public policy, community outreach, public and media relations, legislative advocacy, economic development, and international relations. Rice has planned, managed and directed local, state, regional, national and international public policy and public service efforts; designed and implemented organizational development strategies; researched and authored/ co-authored publications and articles; and has developed and conducted workshops, webinars, presentations and lectures including television, radio and podcast appearances.
Since moving on from a career in federal law enforcement, more than two-thirds of Rice’s career has involved work in a range of policy and public service arenas, including advocacy groups, foundations, professional and trade associations, and as a consultant. He has served on boards and advisory groups for non-governmental organizations and private enterprises, and as a university trustee.
Rice is also a former feature writer for the sincediscontinued digital magazine horizonmag.com and has authored two works of fiction that take the reader into the worlds of espionage and intrigue – one of which is under development as a stage production with the Plowshares Theatre Company in Detroit, Michigan.
He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice Administration from Alvernia University and a CPM in Public Management from the George Washington University in Washington, D.C.

Hail, Alvernia Alma Mater
We proclaim your name. True, staunch, and brave Alvernians Chant a loyal hymn of praise, of praise.
Oh, Alvernia, dear Alvernia Counselor of our youth, And e’er to us the bright example Of virtue and of truth, of truth.
CHORUS:
Leaving thy shelt’ring fold Mem’ries of old With deep maroon and gold Will keep us in thy fold, thy fold. Wherever we may be Through all the years that come and go, We pledge eternal loyalty.
Oh, Alma Mater, hail!
