Florida Gulf Coast University President

Congratulations, Class of 2024! Today we are gathered to celebrate you and the hard work, dedication and perseverance that has led to this day — your commencement. It is my sincere hope that FGCU has been a second home for you, and that it has been a place where you have made meaningful connections with your fellow classmates, university faculty and the greater Southwest Florida community.

As you prepare to cross the commencement stage today, please take a moment to share gratitude for the people who supported and encouraged you throughout your academic journey — your family, your friends and the faculty and staff at FGCU. On behalf of our entire Eagle community, I want you to know that we are proud of what you have accomplished and we are thrilled to see you embark on your next phase of life.

I wish you all well in the journey that lies ahead. And, remember, you will always be part of the FGCU Family.

Wings up, and go Eagles!

Mark Rieger, Ph.D. Executive Vice President and Provost

Congratulations to all of our FGCU graduates! You have achieved something that most people in the world have not — the conferral of a college degree — and as we say, all of the rights, privileges and responsibilities appertaining thereto. Much of your academic journey was marked by once in a lifetime events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and Hurricane Ian, so it is all the more significant that you have completed your degrees. You are, and likely always will be, a resilient group that can endure the hardships of life and not lose focus on your goals. As you celebrate this accomplishment, please don’t forget to thank those who supported you through the last few years – your families, friends, and FGCU faculty and staff. I hope and pray that each of you will go on to lead consequential lives and leave a positive, lasting impact on your communities. Make it count, Eagles!

Michael Wynn Florida Gulf Coast University Board of Trustees Chair

Commencement marks a pivotal moment for self-reflection, acknowledging the dedication and sacrifices you have poured into building a new foundation for the promising path ahead. Your graduation intersects with a critical crossroad in our society, demanding servant leadership anchored in unwavering principles and morality. Embrace these virtues boldly, for they are your compass to navigate farreaching success. As you begin this next chapter in your lives, seize the boundless prospects within your reach while honoring your duty to actively shape a legacy for generations to come. Keep in mind, it is through daring leaps that abundant rewards unfold. Congratulations, graduates, on this remarkable milestone!

Mitchell L. Cordova, Ph.D. Vice President for Student Success & Enrollment Management, Professor of Rehabilitation Sciences

Eagle graduates — today is your day! Your hard work, persistence and commitment to service-learning and community engagement has culminated in your commencement. Congratulations on your outstanding achievement. Commencement marks a new beginning when you will put to great use the education and experiences you have gained during your time at Florida Gulf Coast University.

We are incredibly proud of your success. Please be sure to take time today to thank the important people in your life who have contributed to your success along the way, including family, friends, faculty and staff. Student success is of paramount importance to us — not only during your time on campus, but also following your graduation.

You are now a member of the ever-expanding FGCU alumni network. Tap into this passionate and talented group of professional Eagles to assist you in advancing throughout your career. And, as you continue to succeed, reach out with Green & Blue pride to support your fellow Eagles. You are well prepared for your exciting journey ahead, and we can’t wait to see how you will soar!

Lyndsay Rhodes, Ph.D. Faculty Senate President, Associate Professor of Biological Sciences and FGCU Board of Trustees Member

On behalf of the faculty of Florida Gulf Coast University, I extend our sincerest congratulations to the graduating Class of 2024. The faculty members share your joy on this highly anticipated day — a day to celebrate your hard work, dedication and perseverance. We are proud of your accomplishments and wish you great success in all the days ahead. In awarding your degree today, FGCU and its faculty have upheld our mission to successfully prepare you to live as responsible, productive and engaged citizens.

Your work as learners is never done. As you journey on, continue to be curious, learn from others, ask the hard question and tackle the challenges to come with confidence. Use your experiences and skills you developed in your time at FGCU to continually better yourselves and the world around you. Soar high, Eagles!

Ryan King, ’06, ’09 Chair of the Alumni Association Board of Directors

“What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson

Today is a day to celebrate the closing of one chapter in your life and look forward to a future that is yet to be written. As your time here at Florida Gulf Coast University comes to an end, remember everything you have learned and go forth into the world and make a difference.

Starting today, you represent something bigger than just one person — you represent Florida Gulf Coast University. Take what you have learned at Florida Gulf Coast University and utilize your skills and talents to serve others. The measure of success isn’t just numbers — it is about making an impact in people’s lives.

On behalf of my fellow alumni, we wish you the best and a lifetime of success. Congratulations and GO EAGLES! WINGS UP!

Emory Cavin Student Government President (Outgoing) and FGCU Board of Trustees Member

Congratulations, Eagles! You finally made it to the finish line. As of today, you are officially graduates of Florida Gulf Coast University. Our time here has not been easy. We have faced many challenges as students and as a community. However, with every challenge we faced, we have grown stronger. I have never seen a more humble, kind and passionate group of people. You should be so proud of everything you have accomplished. No matter where life takes you, I am sure that you will be able to face it head-on with courage, strength and grace. When things are tough, remember that you have a community here that cannot be broken. When you are successful, remember the faculty, staff and close relationships that helped you make it there. I am so excited to see all that you accomplish. And remember: Once an Eagle, always an Eagle.

Ryan Kaczynski Student Government President (Incoming) and FGCU Board of Trustees Member

Congratulations, fellow Eagles! Your time here has been characterized by many challenges, and you have faced each one and come out on the other side. Remember as you cross into the next stage of your life the lessons and experiences that brought you to this moment and bring them with you. When you look back, I hope you see a community that has supported you and, as you look forward, I know you see a future to grab onto. FGCU will always be behind you, championing your success. I am so honored to be here to see what you will accomplish next and wish you the best of luck! Go Eagles!

Academic Regalia

The academic costume worn today at Florida Gulf Coast University originated in the universities of the Middle Ages when a warm gown and hood were useful for scholars and clerics in unheated buildings. The distinctive gown also served to set the students apart from their fellow citizens of the community.

Until the Civil War, students at most American universities wore caps and gowns daily while in residence. These varied in design until they were standardized in 1894. At that time it was decided that all robes would be black; bachelor’s gowns of silk with long closed sleeves; master’s gowns of silk with longer sleeves; doctoral gowns of silk with longer sleeves and faced with black velvet bands around each sleeve above the elbow. Hoods, made of the same materials as the gowns, were varied in length with the degree. The lining of the hood indicated the academic discipline in which the degree was earned. Members of the FGCU Board of Trustees wear ceremonial gowns regardless of the degree they hold.

In the past few years, several universities have decided to return to a distinctive gown design, particularly in the color of the garment. There has been no change, however, in the standard colors that represent the disciplines.

Tassels on the caps (mortarboards) worn by the faculty may be black, or of a color indicating the degree. Those who hold a doctorate may wear a gold tassel. It is traditional for degree candidates to wear their tassels on the right and for those holding degrees to wear them on the left.

Graduates transfer their tassels to the left after conferring of the degrees by the president.

Academic Hood Colors

The color lining the hood indicates the following:

Apricot Nursing

Brown

Fine Arts

Citron Yellow Social Work

Dark Blue Philosophy

Drab Business

Green Medicine

Golden Yellow Science

Lemon Yellow Library Sciences

Light Blue Education

Orange Engineering

Pink Music

The Medallion

Traditionally, colleges and universities use medallions on ceremonial occasions. This custom dates back to the Middle Ages when religious orders used medallions to indicate affiliations and to commemorate events.

The Florida Gulf Coast University presidential medallion identifies the president as a distinguished scholar and an esteemed academic leader.

The medallion is embossed with the university seal that displays a natural scene of the sun’s rays, palm trees and the stylized eagle representing FGCU’s environmental conservation mission. The university’s pursuit of knowledge, truth and wisdom is represented by the words printed on an inverted pyramid with a mortarboard at the bottom tip. The president is given the responsibility to develop and maintain an atmosphere in which these noble pursuits thrive.

The medallion is suspended from an actual chain called the chain of office. On the left side of the chain, five plates contain the names of each FGCU president in chronological order. On the right, four plates display the tenure dates of the presidents. The chain contains blank plates for future FGCU presidents to be added to the chain of office.

The Mace

Purple Law

Sage Green Physical Education

Salmon Public Health

Scarlet Theology

Violet Architecture

White Arts and Letters

The mace represents the university’s mission and purpose. The university’s eagle symbol identifies the Southwest Florida physical environment and the university’s environmental mission. The eagle embodies the characteristics of freedom, strength, spirit, intelligence and grace. The upswept wings form a laurel wreath, a symbol of FGCU’s pursuit of excellence.

The original Florida Gulf Coast University mace made its debut at commencement in December 2000 and started the tradition of the Faculty Senate president as mace bearer in academic processions. The tradition of a mace bearer dates back to the Middle Ages when officials were escorted by a mace bearer during official ceremonies and court sessions.

Where Our Wings Will Take Us

Music: Janet Johnson • Lyrics: James Lilliefors and W. Jack Crocker

Verse One

We salute our alma mater For she gave us wings to fly We have learned the wind’s great secrets How to soar with our minds

As we wear our colors proudly Emerald green and cobalt blue Here’s to friends and to memories

Made at FGCU

Chorus

So fly, fly, fly, Eagles

Where our wings will take us

Fly far, fly high Eagles Fly

Verse Two

Now we face a new horizon

Strong of spirit, keen of eye

As we make our journey onward We will go with eagle pride

O’er the river of grass And the gulf’s azure glow We can fly just as far As our dreams let us go!

Chorus

So fly, fly, fly, Eagles

Where our wings will take us

Fly far, fly high Eagles Fly

Verse Three

Let us spread our wings proudly

We have learned to soar high O’er the pines and the palms Through the glorious sky

Ride the winds of inspiration

O’er this land of green and blue

Ne’er forget our alma mater

Hail to FGCU

Chorus

So fly, fly, fly, Eagles

Where our wings will take us

Fly far, fly high Eagles Fly
