This program contains the names of all candidates for this Commencement� Certification of the indicated degree is subject to the completion of requirements�

SCHOOL COLORS The History behind how BGSU began using brown and orange as its school colors dates back to 1914� Dr� Homer B� Williams, the University’s first president, gathered a group of people, including Dr� Leon L� Winslow, from the industrial Arts department, as a selection committee for the school’s new colors� While on a trolley ride to Toledo, Dr� Winslow sat behind a woman wearing a large hat adorned with brown and orange feathers� He was so impressed by the color scheme that his committee recommended to the Board of Trustees they approve the combination of burnt orange and seal brown� Today, BGSU is the only Division I university to have orange and brown as its school colors�

UNIVERSITY MACEThe mace, used as a weapon in medieval times, is employed today on many university campuses as a symbol of office� The mace of the President of Bowling Green State University bears symbols and figures representing three related categories of human culture: areas of learning, the vicissitudes of culture, and the waxing and waning of human life�Designed and created by Harold Hasselschwert, an assistant professor of Art, the mace weighs six and one-half pounds and is 27 inches long� The mace is engraved and enameled silver, creating a moiré effect as a backdrop for figures representing the six branches of learning: drama, Art, literature, music, science and commerce� Approximately 500 square inches of silver were used in the mace, which is adorned with ancient and medieval symbols� At the base are engravings representing the areas of learning: jester’s staff, quill and scroll, lyre, palette and brushes, the atom and the balance�

THE PENDANTA silver pendant containing the inaugural symbol and University seal is worn by the President of Bowling Green State University on ceremonial occasions� The medallion was created in 1964 by Dr� Carl D� Hall, BGSU professor� It depicts a “tree of knowledge” and symbolizes the University’s growth at that time�

ACADEMIC DRESSAcademic regalia originated in medieval European universities during the 14th century when commencement ceremonies were associated with religious ordination� Universities in Europe and the United States continue the tradition of wearing special robes, caps and hoods for formal academicoccasions�

THE GOWNThe typical academic gown is black� Bachelor’s and master’s degree gowns are plain, although sometimes worn with honor cords or medallions� The doctoral gown is trimmed down the front and around the sleeves with bands of velvet, either in black or a color associated with the graduate’sfield of study� Sleeve styles also vary with the degree: pointed sleeves on the bachelor’s degree gown, short sleeves for the master’s degree and round, full sleeves for the doctoral robe�

THE HOODGraduates holding master’s or doctoral degrees typically wear a hood that fits around the neck and drapes down the back of the robe� The hood lining displays colors associated with particular schools�Chevrons in a second color indicate a dual emphasis, while velvet edging on the hood corresponds to the graduate’s field of study� The doctoral hood is longer than the master’s degree hood, and trimmed with additional velvet panels�

THE CAPThe standard cap worn with academicregalia is the mortar board, usuallythe same color as the gown� Bachelor’sdegree candidates at Bowling Green StateUniversity wear colored tassels to representtheir academic areas�

CENTENNIAL FANFARE“Sounds of the Centennial” was written by Ryan Nowlin ‘00, ‘04 in 2010 has part of the Centennial celebration of Bowling Green State University� Major Nowlin is the assistant director of “The President’s Own” United States Marine Band�

COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER

The Honorable Judith DelZoppo Pryor ’85 Judith D� Pryor, who received a Bachelor of Arts in communication degree in 1985 from BGSU, has more than 30 years of leadership experience spanning global trade and development finance, public policy, marketing, sales and communications� She has served three United States presidents�

Through senior positions in international business and with the federal government, her portfolio in recent years has included the regions of South and Southeast Asia, Africa and the Middle East, as well as sectors such as renewable energy and storage, satellite technology, and minority- and women-owned businesses�

Pryor was appointed by President Joseph R� Biden to serve as first vice president and vice chair of the board of directors at the Export-Import Bank (EXIM) of the United States, for a term expiring Jan� 20, 2025� She was confirmed by the U�S� Senate on March 30, 2022, with strong bi-partisan support, and was administered the Oath of Office on April 4, 2022, by Ohio Sen� Sherrod Brown�

Not her first Senate-confirmed political appointment, she also served during the Trump Administration as a member of EXIM’s Board from May 2019 to July 2021� Her confirmation to this post returned EXIM to full functionality and enabled the agency to once again finance transactions of more than $10 million� During her tenure, EXIM’s board authorized nearly $14 billion in trade financing in support of U�S� exports including many small businesses�

During the administration of President Barack Obama, Pryor served for more than six years as vice president of external affairs at the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC), the U�S� government’s development finance institution (now the U�S� Development Finance Corp�)� A member of the executive leadership team, Pryor was responsible for external engagement, including congressional and public affairs, communications, and small business development� She held a seat on the Investment Committee, and during her tenure, OPIC’s portfolio grew by 50 percent to $21 billion�

Before entering public service, Pryor held senior leadership positions with multi-national companies including WorldSpace Satellite Radio, Communications Satellite Corp�, and Orion Network Systems� She began her career with the firm Gray & Company, which was later acquired by Hill & Knowlton Public Affairs Worldwide�

A native of Richmond Heights, Ohio, Pryor is a second-generation American and a proud product of Ohio public schools� In addition to her bachelor’s degree, she studied at the Universidad de Madrid, Spain, as part of BGSU’s semester abroad program� From 2016-2019, she served on the BGSU Foundation Board of Directors and chaired the Development Committee�

Pryor lives in Washington, D�C�, with her husband David Pryor, Jr�, and son Hampton� In her spare time, she is an avid baseball fan, a mediocre golfer, and a tireless champion of children and adults with special needs, who believes in pulling for underdogs (Go Browns!)�

COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER

The Honorable Judith DelZoppo Pryor ’85 Judith D� Pryor, who received a Bachelor of Arts in communication degree in 1985 from BGSU, has more than 30 years of leadership experience spanning global trade and development finance, public policy, marketing, sales and communications� She has served three United States presidents�

Through senior positions in international business and with the federal government, her portfolio in recent years has included the regions of South and Southeast Asia, Africa and the Middle East, as well as sectors such as renewable energy and storage, satellite technology, and minority- and women-owned businesses�

Pryor was appointed by President Joseph R� Biden to serve as first vice president and vice chair of the board of directors at the Export-Import Bank (EXIM) of the United States, for a term expiring Jan� 20, 2025� She was confirmed by the U�S� Senate on March 30, 2022, with strong bi-partisan support, and was administered the Oath of Office on April 4, 2022, by Ohio Sen� Sherrod Brown�

Not her first Senate-confirmed political appointment, she also served during the Trump Administration as a member of EXIM’s Board from May 2019 to July 2021� Her confirmation to this post returned EXIM to full functionality and enabled the agency to once again finance transactions of more than $10 million� During her tenure, EXIM’s board authorized nearly $14 billion in trade financing in support of U�S� exports including many small businesses�

During the administration of President Barack Obama, Pryor served for more than six years as vice president of external affairs at the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC), the U�S� government’s development finance institution (now the U�S� Development Finance Corp�)� A member of the executive leadership team, Pryor was responsible for external engagement, including congressional and public affairs, communications, and small business development� She held a seat on the Investment Committee, and during her tenure, OPIC’s portfolio grew by 50 percent to $21 billion�

Before entering public service, Pryor held senior leadership positions with multi-national companies including WorldSpace Satellite Radio, Communications Satellite Corp�, and Orion Network Systems� She began her career with the firm Gray & Company, which was later acquired by Hill & Knowlton Public Affairs Worldwide�

A native of Richmond Heights, Ohio, Pryor is a second-generation American and a proud product of Ohio public schools� In addition to her bachelor’s degree, she studied at the Universidad de Madrid, Spain, as part of BGSU’s semester abroad program� From 2016-2019, she served on the BGSU Foundation Board of Directors and chaired the Development Committee�

Pryor lives in Washington, D�C�, with her husband David Pryor, Jr�, and son Hampton� In her spare time, she is an avid baseball fan, a mediocre golfer, and a tireless champion of children and adults with special needs, who believes in pulling for underdogs (Go Browns!)�

ALMA MATER

Edith Ludwig Bell ’51

Al - ma Ma - ter hear us, As we praise thy name.

Make us wor - thy sons and daugh - ters add - ing to thy fame.

Time will treat you kind - ly, Years from now you’ll be

ev - er dear - er in our hearts, our Un - i - ver - si - ty.

From your halls of i - vy, To the cam - pus scene,

Chimes ring out with glad-ness for our dear Bow - ling Green. When

all is just a mem - ’ry of the by - gone days,

Hear our hymn dear Al-ma Ma-ter, As thy name we praise.
