RECONCILIATION STATEMENT The University of Newcastle declares its commitment to Aboriginal reconciliation: developing a strong community and fostering mutual respect, social justice and a united voice between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and non-Aboriginal Australians. The University of Newcastle respects and acknowledges the Aboriginal land on which the Australian campuses of the University are located. We acknowledge the Aboriginal nations on whose traditional lands the University has a presence, respecting and acknowledging the traditional peoples and the cultural significance and history of the land. The University is aware of the impact of the alienation and other forms of injustices including the removal of children, the loss of land, the destruction of languages and culture, and the ongoing struggle for social and restorative justice. Through acknowledging and understanding past losses and injustices and through committing to redressing the social and economic challenges and ongoing racism, we will continue to move forward together to a better future. The University recognises that education plays an integral role in providing a foundation and platform for the exercise of self-determination and the empowerment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Through collaboration and the provision of culturally responsive education the University seeks to educate and contribute to the development of a harmonious community.
The University’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities have supported the University in ensuring an Aboriginal presence at the University and appropriate and effective levels of consultation and collaboration through the sharing of Aboriginal voices, cultural wisdom and knowledge. These attributes are essential to moving forward to a future of equality and respect in teaching and learning, research, cultural inclusion, celebrating diverse cultures and success. The University acknowledges and appreciates the contribution and support by all communities. We will continue to build on existing partnerships and wherever possible forge respectful relationships designed to contribute to the ongoing endeavour of redressing the circumstance of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander education, health, cultures, languages, social justice, employment and empowerment. The University is committed to providing an environment that is free from racism and discrimination, developing opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to access and succeed in higher education. The University embraces the unique and diverse cultures of Aboriginal – the oldest continuing culture in the world – and Torres Strait Island peoples and to ensure the growth of knowledge for all Australians. With respect and collaboration, the University of Newcastle embraces a united approach to equality and inclusiveness for all Australian peoples.
A BRIEF HISTORY OF GRADUATION The graduation ceremony is one of great antiquity. Its essential features have been the same since the 12th century when the first universities came into existence. Its necessary constituents are the Chancellor or his or her Deputy, the academic staff, the graduates, and the public.
The hood was the normal medieval headwear, but it soon acquired a coloured lining. By the 17th century, if not earlier, these colours were strictly controlled so that anyone could identify from the colour of a graduate’s hood, the university and the degree.
The church had a monopoly of education, partly because it was the guardian of true doctrine, and partly because clerics were almost the only people who could read and write. As a result, the only person who could license a teacher was the bishop of a diocese until, under pressure of other business; he deputed the task to his chief secretary or chancellor.
The public is the fourth participant. It has an important function because the whole point of the proceedings is that they should be seen and heard by valid witnesses. The public hears the words of the Dean and the Chancellor and sees the new graduates dressed in their respective gowns or robes.
The second group participating in the ceremony is the academic staff. In the 12th century they would all have been called “masters” or MAs. At that date they were paid no salaries, but hired their own lecture rooms and charged their own fees. But they also formed themselves into a guild or union, which is what universitas originally meant. In the 13th century they won a great victory when they persuaded the Pope to decree that chancellors were obliged to confer degrees on all those nominated by the masters. That is why the masters examine the candidates, why the Dean, acting as their spokesperson, reads out the names of those who are to receive degrees, and why the masters at this ceremony watch to see that the Chancellor or his Deputy does what is required of him.
The foregoing is an adaptation of an address given at a graduation ceremony at the University of Birmingham by Emeritus Professor R H C Davis and reprinted in his book ‘From Alfred the Great to Stephen’ (Hambledon Press, 1991), pp. 307-309. It is reproduced with kind permission of the author’s widow.
Thirdly the graduates. The word “degree” comes from the Latin gradus, which means “a step”. When students are admitted to a bachelor degree they move one step up towards the mastership. When they are admitted to a master’s degree they climb another step and come up on a level with the masters, who then receive them into their guild or universitas.
TORRES STRAIT ISLANDER STOLE
The academic gowns are derived from the everyday dress of the medieval clergy. In the Middle Ages they were not open in front, but closed like a clergyman’s cassock. It was in about 1500 that academics had the front opened up so as to display the fine clothes which they were wearing underneath. 4 | The University of Newcastle
ABORIGINAL STOLE The red, yellow and black stoles are worn by Aboriginal students and staff during graduation and relate to the colours of the Aboriginal flag. The colours of the Aboriginal flag represent the land (red), the sun (yellow) and the people (black).
The green, blue and black stoles are worn by Torres Strait Islander students during graduation and relate to the colours of the Torres Strait Island flag. The colours of the Torres Strait Island flag represent the land (green), the sea (blue) and the people (black). The University of Newcastle is a national leader in the attraction and success of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students. The wearing of the stoles celebrates culture and identity in a significant ceremony that also celebrates success.
THE GRADUATION CEREMONY THE MACE
WITH DISTINCTION
The Mace is the symbol of formal authority. The Mace used today belongs to the University of Newcastle and was designed by gold and silversmith, Gerald Benney. It is made of Australian walnut and silver and it's head represents an open book – the traditional symbol of learning. The Mace was a gift from the University of New South Wales to commemorate the establishment of the University of Newcastle as an autonomous institution on 1 January 1965. It is always borne ahead of the Chancellor in the academic procession during formal ceremonies such as today’s presentation of academic awards.
A bachelors or masters degree is conferred with distinction in cases where a candidate has achieved a Grade Point Average of 6.0 or above in the degree, out of a maximum of 7.0.
THE UNIVERSITY OF NEWCASTLE FANFARE The Fanfare is played at all ceremonial functions to herald the entry and departure of the Chancellor and other members of the Council. It was composed by Professor Robert Constable and first performed in 1994.
THE UNIVERSITY MEDAL
COMBINED DEGREE A combined degree is one where a student studies for two separate degrees at the same time. It is possible for the student to complete the degree requirements for one degree ahead of the other. The student receives a testamur for each degree. Places for combined degrees are very competitive and offered to the highest performing students who apply.
MUSICAL INTERLUDE During graduation ceremonies, students, graduates and staff from the University of Newcastle’s Conservatorium of Music entertain and demonstrate their skills and passion for music.
The award of a University Medal is an honour made only when there is a candidate of sufficient merit. To be considered for this award, a graduate must have a consistent record of exceptional academic achievement at all levels of their degree program, and qualify with the highest level of that degree.
HONOURS The award of Honours is given to students who complete an additional year of study after the completion of a bachelor’s degree. Some bachelor’s degrees, such as Engineering or Education, have Honours embedded in the four year degree program. Honours generally consists of part coursework and part research requiring submission of a thesis. Honours can be awarded as Class I, Class II Division 1, Class II Division 2, or Class III.

Mr William Cant is a fifth generation coal miner and the former Managing Director of Bloomfield Collieries, an Australian-owned company with a long history in the Hunter Valley region. He started with Bloomfield in 1988 working across all areas of the business including project, electrical and maintenance engineering, before being appointed Managing Director in 2004. A cornerstone of Bloomfield’s success under Mr Cant’s stewardship was its people. Mr Cant instilled a set of values in the business so that employees felt part of a family. As a result, Bloomfield became an employer of choice with many choosing the organisation as a job for life. Bloomfield’s extensive apprentice and engineer training was a further strength for the company and remains a passion for Mr Cant today. Mr Cant retired from the coal industry in 2010 to pursue other professional interests. He is currently Chairman of DGI Trading in Kempsey and a non-executive director with Marathon Tyres and startup business Joinlox. He also sits on the advisory board for the University of Newcastle Centre for Advanced Particle Processing and Transport.

Professor Geoff Isbister is a leading clinician researcher in the field of clinical toxicology. His passion is to better understand the effects of toxins on humans, in particular from snake and spider bites, in order to investigate and test optimum treatments for patients. A member of the University of Newcastle’s Faculty of Health and Medicine and the Hunter Medical Research Institute, Professor Isbister is widely recognised for his role in reshaping the way snake and spider bites are treated in Australia. One example is through the work of the Australian Snakebite Project, where Professor Isbister and his team have collected evidence from thousands of patients from hospitals around Australia. This comprehensive and unique evidence-base has led to a significant shift in the way snakebites are treated. Rather than administering large doses of antivenom – a practice that has been used for decades – Professor Isbister has shown that treatment with one vial of antivenom is sufficient and safer. Professor Isbister has been continuously funded as a National Health and Medical Research Fellow since 2005. He has authored and co-authored more than 290 peer-reviewed publications, including in The Lancet and Nature Medicine. From the University of New South Wales, he holds Bachelor degrees in Science and Medicine, and a Doctorate in Clinical Toxicology.

Since those early days, Professor Anderson has published widely in criminal law and evidence. His focus is related to questions of unfairness and inequity in the criminal justice system, particularly the sentencing of offenders and treating like cases alike. He has an impressive body of research, which over the past 20 years, has expanded beyond the criminal justice system to include restorative practices, elder abuse and advance personal planning for older adults. Professor Anderson’s significant contribution through excellence in teaching has been recognised at the local, state and national levels, including a prestigious Australian Learning & Teaching Council's Teaching Excellence Award. Professor Anderson graduated from Macquarie University with a Bachelor of Legal Studies, and he completed his PhD with the University of Newcastle.

Emeritus Professor Mel Gray holds an international profile for her pioneering work in culturally-relevant social work education, research and practice. Professor Gray started her career as a social worker in South Africa during the apartheid era. She spent 15 years working at the coalface before moving in to academia to advance her research. At the time, social work applied a universal model of care, which delivered the same approaches and interventions used in one culture (such as the United States) for another (such as South Africa). Professor Gray’s research questioned the effectiveness of this one-size-fits-all model. In South Africa, she developed an 'indigenised' approach, which provides social work that reflects local conditions and values. Upon moving to Newcastle in 1999, she extended her research to indigenous or culturally relevant social work policy and practice in Australia. Over the course of her academic career, Professor Gray has published widely on developmental social work in South Africa and on cross-cultural and comparative social work internationally. Her research has transformed the delivery of social work across the world by changing attitudes and behaviours of practitioners, improving practices by providers and influencing government policy. Professor Gray holds a Bachelor of Social Science (Honours), a Master of Social Science and a PhD from the University of KwaZulu-Natal in Durban, South Africa.

Laureate Professor Jenny Gore is an internationallyrecognised specialist in education, curriculum and pedagogy. Her work as leader of the University of Newcastle’s Teachers and Teaching Research Centre is transforming teacher professional development and the delivery of quality education in schools across Australia. Professor Gore is the co-creator, with Dr Julie Bowe, of Quality Teaching Rounds – a unique approach to teacher professional development. Quality Teaching Rounds enables teachers to draw on their own strengths and the advice of their peers to find creative ways to improve their practice. Under the model, small groups of colleagues watch a lesson in progress and analyse performance, with each teacher taking a turn to host a round. Her work has attracted more than $23 million in research funding and her publications have been cited more than 9,800 times. Philanthropic support for Quality Teaching Rounds from the Paul Ramsay Foundation announced last year, will enable a series of new trials as the program is expanded to at least 30,000 more Australian teachers over the next five years. This will transform teaching quality further. Professor Gore holds a Diploma of Teaching and a Bachelor of Education from the Adelaide College of the Arts and Education; a Master of Physical Education from the University of British Columbia in Canada; and a PhD from the University of Wisconsin in the USA.
