C. Baxter Professor Emeritus English Professor Emeritus ofof English University of Southern California University of Southern California

At the end of the 19th century, colleges and universities in the United States were developing the kind of ruleless academic costume that emerged from the centuries in Great Britain. There and in the dominions, each university adopted its own costume without regard to what other institutions had done. The result was a confusing array of caps, gowns, and particularly hoods, each one of which must be separately memorized. Recognizing this problem, American institutions responded in 1895 by creating an intercollegiate commission to consider a uniform code for academic costume. The resulting Intercollegiate Code regulated the design or pattern of gowns and hoods and the colors and materials to be used. The code was subsequently adopted by almost all of the colleges and universities in the country. It is still in use today, although slightly modified by successor committees appointed by the American Council on Education. Gowns The code provides for three types of gowns. Those for bachelor’s students are made of black material and have long, pointed sleeves. They should be worn closed. The master’s gown, also black, is made with an oblong sleeve, open at the wrist. The rear part of its oblong shape is square cut, and the front part has an arc cut away. It is also worn closed. In 2018, the university unveiled new custom regalia for bachelor’s and master’s students. The new gowns feature a cardinal band and the USC shield on the sleeves, along with cardinal piping. The custom regalia highlights the prestigious brand of USC in an elegant and timeless manner. The doctor’s gown is an elaborate costume marked by velvet panels down the front and around the neck and by three bars of the same material on the bell-shaped sleeves. It is cut much fuller than

the other gowns and may be ornamented in color. (As a matter of practice, except in the areas of philosophy and law—dark blue and purple, respectively—faculty colors are rarely seen on the gown.) The standard cap and gown are almost universally worn, but there are some outstanding deviations, including Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Stanford, Columbia, New York, Chicago and the University of Southern California. Cardinal and gold doctoral gowns were proposed for the university’s centennial by Dr. Jerome B. Walker, centennial director, in 1980. Cardinal gowns with yellow velvet panels were first worn during President James H. Zumberge’s inauguration in May 1981. For President Steven B. Sample’s 1991 inauguration, the design for doctoral gowns was modified, adding red velvet panels framed by bright gold braids. Caps Although there is an exception, rarely seen, for women that ­allows them to wear a soft cap, the mortarboard or Oxford-type cap is worn. Only the doctor’s cap may be made of velvet. The ­tassel worn with the cap has three variations: (1) it may be black for any degree, (2) it may be in the color of the faculty (field of learning) in which the degree was granted, or (3) doctors and governing officials, only, may wear a tassel of gold metallic thread. Black ­tassels are worn at USC for all bachelor’s and master’s degrees. The cap is an essential part of the academic costume and is worn with it at all times except, of course, when the men remove theirs during prayer or during the playing of the national anthem. The gold tassel of the doctor’s cap is so fastened that it drapes over the left front quarter of the cap. From this design, it has ­become customary to leave the tassel draped over the left temple at all times. Hoods Of all the components of the costume, the hood is the most symbolic. It makes clear the level of the degree, the faculty in which it was given and the institution which awarded it. The level of the degree is shown by the size of the hood, the width of the velvet trimming, and in the case of the doctors, by the shape. The hood is lined with the colors of the school awarding the degree; at USC, the silk lining is gold with a cardinal chevron. The color of the velvet band around the hood shows the department in which the wearer has taken his or her degree. All master of arts (white) and master of science (gold) degrees are bestowed by the Graduate School. The color of the velvet band around the hood for all PhDs is dark blue. Specialty degrees have individual colors based on the degree earned. The academic regalia worn by the participants in the commencement ceremony is not merely costume. It represents an unbroken chain uniting students and scholars since the Middle Ages.

ACADEMIC SYMBOLS OF THE UNIVERSITY

AC ADEMIC SYMBOLS OF THE UNIVERSIT Y

Original University Seal The university’s original seal was developed in 1884 to emboss the diplomas of the school’s first graduating class. This seal depicted the year of USC’s founding (1880) emblazoned on a scroll next to a palm tree (in heraldry, a symbol of righteousness and victory), with the name of the institution inscribed around the border.

1908 Seal At the behest of university administrators in 1908, Jesse Ray Miller devised a new seal that introduced USC’s official flower, the California poppy, a heraldic symbol of remembrance, hope, joy and growth. The seal also included a shield bearing a setting sun and three torches. In heraldic tradition, the torch symbolizes learning, and the three torches displayed here represented learning in the arts, the sciences and philosophy. The setting sun signified the West, and according to heraldic symbolism, power and life. Finally, enfolding the shield was a scroll displaying the university’s new motto, “Palmam Qui Meruit Ferat.” Freely translated, it means: “Let him bear the palm who merits it.”

Current Seal of the University of Southern California In 1948, the USC Board of Trustees approved an updated version of the university seal. In this version, the poppies appear next to the shield inside the outer band, which is now formatted as a scroll. The Latin motto is inscribed on a separate scroll at the base of the seal. This seal continues to be the imprimatur, or official signature, of USC to this day.

HERALDIC FLAGS

HERALDIC FL AGS Originally designed by Dr. Jerome B. Walker for President James H. Zumberge’s 1981 inauguration, heraldic flags for each academic degree-granting unit are displayed at commencements and other academic convocations. These flags, carried by students, precede the faculty in the procession. By a long-standing tradition, most academic disciplines have used an identifying color, which is displayed on academic hoods to indicate the subject area in which the wearer obtained the degree. These identifying academic colors are used in the banners of the various schools and divisions of the university. Found in the university seal, the torch of knowledge is a clear and honorable symbol, well suited to an institution of higher learning, and is one of the charges on the university’s official seal. The university seal also contains a sun. Known as a “sun in its splendor,” it has a perimeter featuring alternating straight and wavy rays. The straight rays represent the light and the wavy rays the warmth and affection that the university extends to its students and community. The torch and the sun are used to unite these disciplines under the flag of the University of Southern California.

Architecture Academic color: blue-violet. The Doric portico is used here as a symbol of beauty and proportions inspired by the early Greek architects, who continue to inspire the architect today. The modern bridge represents progress, connections and stability. The blue background, representing the sky, suggests the almost limitless scope of architecture.

Art and Design Academic colors: brown for arts, white for letters. Here the symbols reflect two important branches of art and design. The paintbrush and pencil symbolize fine arts such as painting, drawing and sculpture. The abstract symbol, with its pixellike design, reflects the emergence and evolution of digital arts.

College of Letters, Arts and Sciences Academic colors: white for letters, gold for sciences. The wideranging fields over which this college functions are symbolized by the intimate intertwining of letters, arts and sciences in the heraldic pattern known as “gyronny.”The torch of knowledge serves as a reminder that the college is the academic heart of the university.

The Graduate School Academic color: white for arts, gold for sciences, royal blue for the doctorate. In heraldry, the saltire (a corner-to-corner cross) symbolizes the very wide range of disciplines over which this school presides and which the saltire unites in one unit.

Arts, Technology and the Business of Innovation Academic color: brown. The supernova, an astronomical event that occurs during stellar evolution causing the sudden appearance of a new, brighter star, represents the idea of disruption and the supreme energy exhibited by the founders and students of the academy. The flag’s additional colors are described in heraldic language as metals: gold and bronze.

Bovard College Academic color: white. The soaring sails symbolize confidence and agility in providing a student-centered approach to learning. The rooted plant is a symbol of the stability, growth and abundance of opportunity. Colors featured in the flag are rendered as metals—gold, silver and bronze—in traditional heraldic terms.

Business Academic color: drab. The square figures that are symmetrically arranged on this flag are designed to symbolize the organizational characteristics of business in all its complexity. The interconnected sphere represents an enterprising and global approach to business.

Cinematic Arts Academic colors: brown for arts, white for letters. The six triangles represent the strength of the individual specialties, such as camera, editing, sound, writing, criticism and aesthetics, that form the larger discipline of cinematic arts. When combined, they form an aperture, at the center of which is the human eye, representing the mediation essential to the discipline.

Communication and Journalism Academic colors: crimson for communication, white for journalism. The three data waves emanating from the transmitter in both directions symbolize the fact that all communication has a threefold aspect—communicator, audience and medium—all of which are involved in the interplay and sharing of a message. The quill tip within the keyhole represents freedom of the press.

Dance Academic color: amethyst. Dance is one of the oldest and most central expressions of humanity. The two interlocking figures represent creativity and innovation, and they capture the artistry of bodies in motion. The sun in its splendor represents the courage and power incumbent in authentic artistic creation, and white is the traditional heraldic color representing the arts and humanities.

Dentistry Academic color: lilac. Dentistry, like the other scholarly areas associated with health care, uses the traditional Asclepian staff and serpent— in this case, enclosed in a capital Greek letter, delta, an homage to the official emblem of dentistry.

Dramatic Arts Academic colors: brown for arts, white for letters. The classic emblem of comedy and tragedy is based on masks worn by actors in ancient Greek theater productions. They reflect not only the two main genres of the dramatic arts, but also the duality of the human experience.

Education Academic color: light blue. The book, illuminated by the lamp of learning, is a very widely used, traditional symbol for education, and occurs in many shields of arms. The flame from the torch of knowledge illuminates the tip of the lamp.

Engineering Academic color: orange. The interlinked circles, inspired by the classic mathematical Borromean rings, join the cogs and gears in this flag to symbolize the way in which the profession of engineering interacts with math and the applied sciences to solve society’s most pressing and wicked problems.

#USCgrad


HERALDIC FLAGS

Gerontology Academic color: white. The very characteristic architecture of this school is incorporated in the flag, along with the oak tree, symbolizing sturdiness and longevity, and acorns, representing the constant renewal of life.

Law Academic color: purple. The four points surrounding the gavel in this flag symbolize the levels at which the legal profession provides a bulwark and framework for our society: federal, state, county and local. The scales of justice reflect the fair and impartial balance sought by the law.

Medicine Academic color: green. The staff of Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine, around which is entwined the harmless snake beloved of Asclepius, has been the symbol of medicine for many centuries.

Pharmacy Academic color: olive. Pharmacy is symbolized by the bowl of Hygeia, the Greek goddess of health, coupled with the Asclepian serpent, showing the intrinsic relationship between pharmacy and medicine.

Public Policy Academic color: peacock blue. The school’s work is represented in triads, reflecting the intersection of three sectors, three levels of government, three locations and three levels of degree programs. The three shapes that come together to form the obelisk evoke those triads. The symbol of the obelisk surrounded by stars reflects structure, security and liberty.

Social Work Academic color: citron. As symbolized by outstretched hands cradling the globe, social work by its very nature is about embracing our connections as human beings and inspiring the spirit of compassion and mutual respect that assists individuals and communities in reaching their full potential.

Music Academic color: pink. Music is a universal means of communication between human beings, linking the past, present and future. The treble and bass clefs symbolize music expressed in all its forms and styles, vocal or instrumental.

RE S I D E N T I A L C O L L E G E S The University of Southern California transformed its housing for freshmen into residential colleges in 2012, bringing special cultural programming, academic opportunities and mentoring from faculty members to many more students. Along with this shift, the university unveiled official crests to represent each of these new colleges. Some echo the history of the university and its architecture, whereas others evoke the emerging themes of these new communities. All 14 crests are anchored in USC’s identity, echoing elements from the university’s official seal and embracing cardinal and gold as their dominant tones.

Frank Price Doctor of Fine Arts

For his many enduring contributions to the cinematic canon, his passionate advocacy for diversity in media and his dedication to our Trojan Family, the University of Southern California is proud to honor Frank Price with the degree of Doctor of Fine Arts honoris causa. Frank Price is a visionary leader whose legendary career as a writer, producer and studio executive exemplifies the power of cinema to impact our culture and societal institutions. Mr. Price led two iconic movie studios as chairman and CEO of Columbia Pictures and president of Universal Pictures. Significantly, he greenlit projects that were both entertaining and had something important to say, especially about society’s entrenched inequities. Mr. Price first found success overseeing hit television series including The Virginian, Ironside, Battlestar Galactica, The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman. He established a new form of entertainment with The Doomsday Flight, the first feature that was specifically made for the smaller television screen. Another milestone project, titled Rich Man, Poor Man, helped establish the miniseries as a television mainstay. Mr. Price leveraged his reputation as a hitmaker to champion groundbreaking television films like A Case of Rape, a ratings sensation that influenced the creation of laws to protect rape victims; That Certain Summer, network TV’s first positive depiction of a committed gay couple; and Farewell to Manzanar, about the shameful incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II. He received Peabody and NAACP Image Awards for The Tuskegee Airmen, an HBO film about the famed Black pilots.

#USCgrad

Mr. Price was equally visionary as a studio executive with credits including Back to the Future, Ghostbusters, Gandhi and The Karate Kid. He championed films that exposed gender inequality, including Kramer vs. Kramer, A League of Their Own, Tootsie and Out of Africa, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 1985, and is one of more than 20 of Mr. Price’s projects to win an Oscar. Mr. Price’s impact extends to our School of Cinematic Arts, where he formed and chaired the Board of Councilors for almost 30 years. He and his wife Katherine established USC’s Endowed Chair for the Study of Race and Popular Culture, amplifying work that addresses complex questions of identity and representation. Mr. Price became acquainted with the school when he let a young graduate direct his own script about life in his South Los Angeles neighborhood. That decision gave the world Boyz N the Hood, and made John Singleton the first African American and youngest person to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Director. Mr. Price is the recipient of an honorary doctorate of humanities from Michigan State University, which he attended. He is also a USC Life Trustee, contributing to the well-being of Trojan students, faculty, staff and alumni.

USC Nisei students Honorary degrees

For their extraordinary strength and courage in the face of intense prejudice, and in long overdue recognition of their academic, professional and creative achievements, the University of Southern California posthumously confers honorary degrees upon all Nisei students who were denied the opportunity to complete their USC education. Through the 1930s and 1940s, an increasing number of Nisei— American-born children of Japanese immigrant parents— enrolled as students at USC. More than 100 of these students had their educations disrupted by World War II, and many were denied the opportunity to complete their USC degrees due to their incarceration under Executive Order 9066. Issued in February 1942, shortly after the United States entered the war, this order was primarily used to target Japanese Americans and hold them in detention facilities, which was explained at the time as a national security measure. These Nisei students and their families were among the nearly 120,000 individuals of Japanese descent incarcerated between 1942 and 1946. Of this total, almost two-thirds were American citizens. Packing whatever belongings they could carry, families reported to assembly centers before being sent to remote internment camps scattered across the country. The first of these camps, Manzanar, was in central California near the northern Mojave Desert. Several assembly centers were located closer to Los Angeles, including sites in Pomona and Arcadia.

#USCgrad

As Japanese Americans endured racism, dislocation and imprisonment during World War II, they did their best to nurture their communities and care for one another. They also contributed to America’s war effort, including the more than 17,000 Nisei who served in the U.S. armed forces—many of them becoming decorated combat veterans. Several years into the war, the government announced plans to close the internment camps. The last camp in Tule Lake, California, shut down in March 1946. Executive Order 9066 was officially repealed in 1976. Later, an investigation by the Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians concluded that Japanese Americans had been loyal, law-abiding citizens. The U.S. government issued a formal apology, and paid reparations to more than 82,000 Japanese Americans who were imprisoned during World War II. As American universities have continued to reflect on this painful chapter of history, USC has recognized its Nisei students, granting them honorary alumni status in 2008 and giving honorary degrees to living Nisei students in 2012. By conferring posthumous USC degrees on our former Nisei students, we recognize the depth of their resilience against hardship and discrimination. Like so many of their generation, these students bravely pushed forward and achieved success despite profound injustice. Honoring them is another step on our collective journey toward healing, compassion and understanding.

2022 SPECIAL AWARDS

S P E C I A L A WA RD S

Academic Honors Valedictorian Every university has its own set of traditions for selecting commencement speakers and honorees. The custom at the University of Southern California is to name one student as the valedictorian and one or more students as salutatorians. The valedictorian delivers the address on behalf of the graduating class at the university’s commencement ceremony. The selection process at USC differs considerably from that of most high schools, where recognition is based solely on cumulative grade point average. Under that system, the valedictorian and salutatorian are ranked first and second, respectively, in their class. USC’s process recognizes the highest levels of academic achievement, while taking a more holistic view of a student’s time at the university. All graduating students who have earned a cumulative USC grade point average of 3.98 or higher as of the conclusion of the fall semester are invited to apply to be named valedictorian. A panel of senior faculty members, drawn from across the university, reviews all applications, with the selection based on the following factors: Grade point average Number of course units completed at USC Breadth of academic program Challenge of academic program Contribution to university and community life Adam Karelin, Composition/Linguistics Salutatorians Andrew Harrison Binder, Philosophy, Politics and Law/ Human Security and Geospatial Intelligence

Shreya Saha Daniel, Health and Human Sciences/ Occupational Science

University Trustees Award This honor is granted to graduating seniors who have attained the highest scholarship average since their first year at the University. The recipients of this award have earned a perfect 4.0 grade point average for their entire undergraduate course of study at USC.
