• Students at UBC’s Okanagan campus will graduate from
four faculties at the 2006 Spring Congregation: The Irving
K. Barber School of Arts and Sciences, Creative and Critical
Studies, Education, and Health and Social Development.
• Each year since 1919, the graduating class in Vancouver has
planted a tree to mark Congregation.
• The first Congregation ceremony on the present day
Vancouver campus was held in 1927.
• When graduating students are presented to the chancellor he
or she says “I admit you,” welcoming them to convocation,
the body of graduates that elects the chancellor and some
university senators.
• Hoods and gowns worn by graduates are lined with colours
that indicate the degree to be conferred. Members of
the Congregation processions wear colourful academic
regalia from around the world signifying their university of
graduation and highest degree awarded.
• The gowns, hoods and mortarboards worn by graduating
students evolved from clothes worn by European scholars in
the Middle Ages.

The University Mace is a symbol of the authority of the
Chancellor. It is displayed on ceremonial occasions, most notably
during the Congregation ceremonies but also during the
Installation of a President or Chancellor.
The Mace is carried by the ‘Macebearer’ who leads the Platform
Party, which includes the Chancellor, the President, and other
dignitaries, onto the stage for the Congregation ceremonies.
The University Mace will be brought up from Vancouver for the
first Congregation ceremony at UBC Okanagan. A new Mace
will be created specifically for the Okanagan campus.
VANCOUVER CAMPUS
In the fall of 1957, the University commissioned Haida carver Bill
Reid to undertake the project. Owing to Reid’s heavy workload,
he suggested that George Norris be asked to help design and
carve the Mace. The planning of the Mace took some time and
a final design was not approved until 1959.
Norris carved the Mace from a block of yew and it included
a stylized thunderbird on the thick upper portion. The Mace
also featured the use of copper that is prominent in Northwest
Coast native art. This copper trimming was designed and
prepared by Bill Reid. Norris completed the Mace in 1959 and
it was first used at the Fall Congregation where the Director of
Ceremonies, Malcolm McGregor, carried it for the first time.
o C a n a d a
O Canada! Our home and native land,
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The true north strong and free!
From far and wide, O Canada,
We stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

1908• Provincial legislature passes a new “University
Act” establishing The University of British
Columbia. It provides for a Chancellor,
a Convocation, a President, and a Board
of Governors to manage the university’s
administration, property and business affairs,
and a Senate to administer academic matters.
1910• After a province-wide survey, Point Grey is
selected as the site of UBC’s new campus.
1913• Dr. Frank Fairchild Wesbrook appointed first
President of UBC.
1915• The University of British Columbia opens in
temporary headquarters at the former MUCBC
facilities (nicknamed the “Fairview Shacks” after
the surrounding neighbourhood) adjacent to
Vancouver General Hospital. There are three
faculties: Arts and Science, Applied Science and
Agriculture. Student enrolment in September
is 379 and total number of full- and part-time
faculty is 34.
1922• Tired of over-crowded conditions and
inadequate facilities, UBC students launch a
campaign known as “Build the University”
to resume construction at the Point Grey
campus. With 56,000 names on a petition for
the government, 1,200 students with floats,
bands and banners march through the streets
of downtown Vancouver to the Point Grey
campus. This pilgrimage became known as the
“Great Trek,” as it successfully convinced the
Government of BC to resume work on the Point
Grey site. The “Great Trek” represents one of the
greatest efforts of an undergraduate student
body in support of its university and still reflects
the spirit and pride of UBC students.
1925• UBC moves to Point Grey campus.
1940• Students contribute to the construction of Brock
Hall, the university’s first student union building.

Summit.”

campus—which has changed considerably over
the years—as it confers close to 6,000 degrees to
graduating UBC students.
2001• UBC opens its new downtown campus, UBC at

Congratulations and welcome to the alumni family, made up of
over 225,000 alumni worldwide. When you cross the stage at
congregation, the Chancellor admits you into the UBC alumni
body and your relationship to UBC enters a new phase.
As the first graduates of UBC Okanagan, you hold a special
place in the history of UBC. Although graduation marks the end
of your degree program, you will have a lifelong connection to
your alma mater.
We will help you keep in touch with UBC through the award-
winning Trek magazine, regular email newsletters, and through
our online community. You will be invited to mentoring, social,
educational, and career networking events, whether you

wander. You can help shape this programming by participating

connect you.
We also offer alumni an ACard, purchase of which gives you
discounts on goods and services on campus and off, and allows

T h e g i f T o f l e a r n i n g
Learning is not just about time spent in the classroom or
lab. For some, the most powerful lessons from their time
at university are about belonging and being a contributing
member of the university community. That need not end at
graduation.
UBC Okanagan’s vision is to provide students, faculty and staff
with an intimate learning environment of academic freedom
and mutual respect with the latest technology and resources.
The realization of this vision would not be possible without the
generosity of alumni and friends of the university. Donations
to UBC Okanagan ensure that students and the leaders of
tomorrow are provided with the best education and research
opportunities possible.
As you take a step forward towards your future, what better
way to celebrate your success than to leave a contribution for
the students who will follow in your footsteps. To learn about
the many ways you can invest in the next generation of UBC
Okanagan students, please contact the Development Office at
250.807.8565 or visit our web site at www.ubc.ca/okanagan/
