Honors

Graduation Honors

Graduation honors are listed in the program following the recipients’ names. There are two distinct kinds of honors— those based on specific course work in the University Honors Program, and those based on the achievement of high grades (Latin honors).

The University Honors Program

The University Honors Program is a selective admission program limited to students with high academic potential. It awards three kinds of honors.

University Honors Scholar is the highest academic distinction the university confers. It indicates that the student has completed a program of at least seven honors courses and has completed a program of advanced, independent study in the major.

General Studies Honors Scholar indicates successful completion of a program of at least eight honors courses and the maintenance of a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.5 in all courses attempted.

Departmental Honors Scholars complete an approved program of independent study in the major. Most involve a two-term research or experimental project under the direction of a faculty advisor.

Students who have completed the requirements for graduation with these honors wear honors medallions in recognition of their achievements.

Latin Honors

Undergraduate students with outstanding academic records are recognized at commencement. Three distinctions are made:

summa cum laude (Latin for with highest honors) recognizes a cumulative GPA of at least 3.9; magna cum laude (Latin for with high honors) indicates a cumulative GPA of at least 3.7; and cum laude (Latin for with honors) indicates a final cumulative GPA of at least 3.5.

Academic honors are based on meeting the minimum honors GPA requirement for work attempted at Wright State University, as well as for all transfer college work accepted, as of the end of the term in which the student graduates; (that is, by the day on which term grades are due). This recalculation of the GPA may result in the student’s Wright State transcript GPA not matching the student’s Latin Honors eligibility. To be eligible for academic honors at graduation, students must have earned at least 30 credit hours at Wright State University.

Students who hold a baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution, including Wright State, and who earn a second baccalaureate degree at Wright State per the academic policy requirements for second degrees, are eligible for Latin honors. Latin honors are based on all coursework at Wright State University attempted for the second degree following and excluding the first-degree coursework.

Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the printed program with respect to degrees awarded and honors conferred. Since some final grades will not be submitted until after commencement, the honors indicated in this program are based upon the student’s grade point average at the end of the 2020 Fall Semester. The appearance of a name in the list of degree candidates is not to be regarded as conclusive. The student’s permanent academic record is the official record.

Costume of the Day

At this ceremony, the hoods or tassels represent the college, school, or major field in which the student is receiving the degree. The designations are as follows: Graduate School—black

Boonshoft School of Medicine—green Professional Psychology—royal blue

Engineering and Computer Science—orange or yellow Science and Mathematics—yellow

Raj Soin College of Business—drab Liberal Arts—white

Education and Human Services—light blue Nursing and Health—apricot

Academic Costume

The Presidential Chain of Office

Medallions, as worn in higher education, represent the evolution of a practice arising in the Middle Ages and the very early beginnings of universities in the Western world. The medallion identifies the wearer as the designated leader of the university. Representing both the authority and the responsibility of the person who wears it, the medallion is worn by the president of the university at all formal academic occasions.

The Wright State University Chain of Office not only signifies the wearer as the president of the institution, but it also pays homage to the past presidents with their names and years of presidential service on individual banners that make up the Chain itself. Additionally, the Chain includes a separate banner for each of the colleges and the University Libraries. Also made of bronze, the face of the medallion has the university logo, the Latin words “Ad Docendum, Investigandum, Serviendum,” and the year of establishment. The reverse side of the medallion is engraved with a biography of the current president.

Academic costume has a history of nearly eight centuries. In medieval Europe all townspeople wore long, flowing robes or gowns. Materials and colors varied according to wealth and rank and were governed by royal decree. The distinctive gowns that developed for various professions, trades, and guilds survive today in the gowns of religious orders, the judiciary, and academics.

As students in the medieval universities of Paris, Bologna, Oxford, and Cambridge organized into guilds, they developed distinctive costumes for Bachelors (apprentices) of Arts, Masters (teachers), and Doctors (teachers who had completed postgraduate studies). Distinctions appeared mostly in the hood, which derives from the cloak. Originally attached to the cloak at the back of the neck, the hood eventually became a separate article. When caps and hats became fashionable in the 15th century, the hoods became merely ornamental and were draped over the shoulder and down the back.

The academic cap, a later development, was first conferred as a symbol of the M.A. degree. Some caps were stiff, some square, and some round with a tuft in the center. The tassel used today derives from the tuft. The mortar board style comes to us from Oxford.

In Europe there is still great variation in the color and style of academic costume, but American usage has long been standardized by the Intercollegiate Code. Taking the Oxford costume as a starting point, the Bachelor’s gown has long, pointed sleeves; the Master’s gown oblong sleeves, open at the wrist; and the Doctor’s gown round, open sleeves, with three bars of velvet and velvet facing. The gold tassel on the cap is reserved for doctors and presidents. University presidents may wear four bars of velvet on their sleeves to represent their leadership role.

The royal blue of the Doctor of Psychology is a variant of the traditional dark blue of the Doctor of Philosophy, acknowledging the common heritage of these two professions. The Doctor of Medicine is signified by green, the color of herbs used in healing during medieval times.

The hoods, of the same material as the gown and lined with silk in the colors of the institution, are most distinctive. The Bachelor’s hood, infrequently used in this country, is three feet long; the Master’s hood is three and one-half feet; and the doctor’s hood is four feet with panels at the sides.

The University Mace

During the Middle Ages, the mace was a weapon used against armored warriors. Through the years, it was transformed into an ornamental staff that served as a symbol of authority of a ruler. Colleges and universities have adopted the mace as an ornamental staff or baton that is carried by the grand marshal of the university in all formal academic processions. The mace may also be displayed at other significant events.

The Wright State University mace has a five-foot staff of turned walnut. On top of the staff is a forged steel tile approximately five inches in diameter. On this tile appears a walnut and oak pattern and the image of a trilobite.

The trilobite represents the local area’s history. After Dayton’s Great Flood of 1913, water conservation projects were initiated to prevent future floods. One of these projects was Huffman Dam, located next to the Wright Brothers Memorial. During the construction of Huffman Dam, the largest intact trilobite in the world was discovered. The fossil itself is now housed in the Smithsonian Institution, and the trilobite has been named the official fossil of the state of Ohio.

College Gonfalons

Gonfalons are ceremonial flags or banners suspended on a crossbar. The use of ceremonial banners dates back to the 1500s. Italian towns, for example, each have a gonfalon, which is the official emblem of the town, showing its coat of arms.

These gonfalons represent our 11 colleges and schools. The color of each gonfalon represents the academic discipline of the college or school, as established by academic protocol. Each gonfalon is also emblazoned with the Wright State University logo.
