Dr. Ronald L. Ellis Ronald L. Ellis, Ph.D. became the fifth president of California Baptist University on November 1, 1994. Since then, the institution has experienced sweeping changes in almost every facet of university life—from expanding academic programs to a successful athletics program. Enrollment at CBU has grown by 1,422 percent during the Ellis presidency, from 808 in the fall of 1994 to 11,491 in the fall of 2021. During his tenure, the university’s operating budget has increased from $11.3 million to $370 million in FY22. After winning 22 NAIA national championships in 12 years, CBU gained full membership in NCAA Division II in 2013. CBU won the 2012 Pacific West Conference Commissioner’s Cup in its inaugural year competing in the PacWest. CBU won it again in 2014, the same year Dr. Ellis became the first leader of a PacWest member institution to serve on the NCAA Division II Presidents Council. CBU won the PacWest Commissioner’s Cup again in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. The Lancers also won the NCAA Division II Learfield Directors in 2018. In the 2018–19 season, CBU began a four-year transition to Division I status as a member of the Western Athletic Conference. Since then, the Lancers have won 10 conference championships, logged 18 top-three conference finishes, and qualified 10 teams for postseason tournaments involving Division I programs. New construction, renovation of existing facilities, and property acquisitions have dramatically transformed CBU’s beautiful Southern California campus. The university also has developed as a significant member of the community and region, and in 2005 the Greater Riverside Chambers of Commerce named CBU “Business of the Year.” And for the 16th consecutive year, U.S. News & World Report named CBU one of “America’s Best Colleges” for 2022. Under the leadership of President Ellis, CBU has developed into a premier comprehensive Christian university, comprising 10 colleges and professional schools and a division of Online and Professional Studies, offering more than 350 majors, minors and concentrations as well as more than 35 graduate programs and seven doctoral programs. In 2011, CBU received its first ever 10-year accreditation—affirmation from the Western Association of Schools and Colleges. And in 2012, California Baptist University’s bachelor degree programs in civil engineering (BSCE), electrical and computer engineering (BSECE) and mechanical engineering (BSME) were accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET. President Ellis received a bachelor’s degree from Houston Baptist University in 1977 and a master’s degree in educational administration from Baylor University in 1981. In 1987, he completed a Ph.D. in higher education administration from Texas A&M University. President Ellis and his wife, Jane Dowden Ellis, are active members of Magnolia Church in Riverside, where he has served as chair of the board of trustees. They have two sons and 13 grandchildren.

T he A cademic M ace Though originally conceived as a weapon, the mace was adopted by medieval European royalty as a symbol of authority. Today, the U.S. Congress, the British Parliament and many other governmental bodies employ the mace as a symbol of authority and order. On the rare occasion when a member of Congress becomes unruly, the Sergeant at Arms, on order of the Speaker, lifts the mace from its pedestal and presents it before the offenders, thereby restoring order. The first known use of the mace in academic ceremonies occurred at the University of Vienna in 1385. The mace of California Baptist University is four feet long, is constructed of bronze and walnut, and is used in many of the University’s academic ceremonies. In keeping with academic tradition, the CBU mace appears at the front of the faculty processions and is carried by the University’s most senior faculty member.
T he R inging

B ell
Tradition calls for the ringing of the CBU bell to signify the start of commencement. Each toll represents one decade of the university’s existence. California Baptist University was first established in 1950 in El Monte, California. Today, the bell will be rung seven times to commemorate seven decades of academic excellence.
A lma M ater by S.E. Boyd Smith (1953) CBU we’ll love you, Long as stars shine above you. Pledge our hearts forever, Time shall never sever, never sever. We will sing your praises, Proudly down through the ages. Hail Thee, Alma Mater, CBU!

T he A cademic R egalia Distinctive academic dress can be traced back to the universities of the Middle Ages. In the early centuries of its existence, the costume was worn as daily garb, and each of the several parts had its practical use. In more recent centuries, its use in complete form has been reserved for special ceremonial occasions. As a rule, universities require that an academic gown is worn. Although black gowns are the most common, each university establishes their own distinctive colors for their regalia. For master’s degrees, the field of learning in which a degree is awarded is shown by the color of the edging of the hood. The lining of the hood is the official color of the university which awarded the degree. Holders of all degrees wear caps––the most common is popularly known as the mortarboard––to which a long tassel is fastened. Black tassels are correct for all degrees, but colored tassels may also be worn. Gold metallic tassels may be worn by persons with doctorates and by dignitaries.
