DONATIONThe 2017 graduating class chose to donate their class gift to Stand with Standing Rock, a grassroots movement that began in early 2016 in reaction to the approved Dakota Access Pipeline. The movement evolved into the establishment of the historic Oceti Sakowin camp, which had been home to thousands of indigenous and environmental activists. In honor of our future generations, the movement continues the fight for social and environmental justice, gaining national and international recognition.
“What we all need to do is find the wellspring that keeps us going, that gives us the strength and patience to keep up this struggle for a long time.” —Winona LaDuke

SPECIAL THANKS TO THE 2017 GRADUATION PLANNING COMMITTEE
Your presence is part of the graduation experience; thank you for being here. The last graduate to cross the stage deserves the same support, respect, and celebration as the first, so we ask that everyone remain seated until the Recessional has concluded.

ACADEMIC COSTUMESThe origins of academic dress date back to the 12th and 13th centuries, when universities were taking form. The ordinary dress of the scholar, whether student or teacher, was the dress of a cleric. Long gowns and hoods were worn and may have been necessary for warmth in unheated buildings. Today, many institutions choose distinctively colored gowns. The design of the sleeve indicates the level of the degree earned by the wearer. Hoods have both the colors of the institution and a band indi-cating the academic discipline in which the degree was earned.
CEREMONIAL MACEOriginally a weapon used in medieval warfare by a king or great noble, the mace on the stage has become a symbol used on ceremonial occasions. Use of the mace as an academic device dates back to 16th-century England, when Queen Elizabeth I presented a replica of her own royal mace to the corporation of the University of Oxford in 1589. She ordered that it be used in all ceremo-nies to represent the royal presence and the authority granted to the university to issue degrees under the royal insignia. Since that time, European, and now American, colleges and universities have increasingly adopted the custom of using a ceremonial mace during graduation exercises.
The Evergreen State College mace is a gift from the late Byron Youtz, former academic vice president and provost, who donated the materials, and Faculty Member Emeritus Earle McNeil, who gave his time and talent to create it.
The cap of the mace is suggestive of a crown and represents the principle of knowledge and experience. To remind us that such integration is a carefully balanced blend of diverse aspects of human nature, there are four inlaid circles symbolizing major ways of experiencing the world—thinking, feeling, intuiting, and sensing—and four main characteristics of the human mind—wisdom, in-nocence, introspection, and illumination.
COLLEGE MEDALLIONMedallions are traditionally worn by presidents and chancellors at ceremonial occasions and it is worn by President George Bridges today. The original medallion was designed for Charles McCann for his inauguration in 1972. McCann later donated the medallion to Library Archives.
Today’s medallion was designed in September 1994 by Spokane artist Joyce Attwood. It is fabricated of moon-stone from Nepal, paua shell from New Zealand, turquoise, silver, copper, brass, gold, and acrylic, and is suspended on a 30-inch chain from Thailand. The medallion design shows an evergreen tree with Mt. Rainier and the sea in the background. It is an interpretation of the Evergreen logo, designed in 1973 by Connie Hubbard, the college’s first graphic designer. In 1983, the Board of Trustees approved the tree design as the official college emblem and it was registered with the Secretary of State as Evergreen’s logo.

EVERGREEN@50On March 21, 1967, Governor Dan Evans signed legislation that established The Evergreen State College. On March 21, 2017 at the Legislature’s State Reception Room 50 years later, Evergreen celebrated its founding day. Governor Jay Inslee and Evergreen President George Bridges led the commemoration, joined by elected officials, tribal representatives, community leaders, students, alumni, and the public.
Inslee signed a proclamation recognizing the founding of Evergreen, noting that Greeners distinguish themselves at the highest levels in politics, the arts, business, teaching, science and environmental sustainability. The proclamation also stated that Evergreen is a nationally recognized launching pad for creative genius and entrepreneurial inspiration, contributing to Washington’s dynamism and high quality of life.

EVERGREEN’S ACADEMIC REGALIATacoma Program: The Evergreen State College-Tacoma graduates are wearing kente cloth stoles. Kente cloth is a type of woven silk and cotton fabric native to the Ashanti people (Ghana). Kente cloth, worn only in times of extreme importance, has become an icon of African cultural heritage around the world.
Evening and Weekend Studies: Many EWS students and faculty are wearing a woven drape with a moon on one lapel and a sun on the other, indicating the nights and weekends they’ve spent earning their degrees while working day jobs and supporting families. The drape is black with green and white accents.
Native Programs: MPA-Tribal Governance and Reservation-Based Community Determined Program graduates are wearing shawls with a peacock blue Pendleton design that pays homage to the button blankets that became the standard form of ceremonial regalia for Northwest Coastal Tribes. Some students are also wearing handmade cedar caps or regalia that represents Native cultures across Indian Country.
COLLEGE MASCOTFounders of the college wanted a mascot that epitomized the difference between traditional schools and Evergreen’s innovative ideas. It had to be the opposite of all the snarling, fierce, aggressive mascots typically seen in athletics. They chose the Geoduck, one of the world’s largest species of clam and among the most abundant marine animals in south Puget Sound. The name Geoduck derives from the southern Lushootseed word “gwid q,” literally meaning, “to dig deep.” It is a symbol of the essence of college: accessible to all who are willing to dig deep—stable, yet flexible, and the antidote to departmental thinking and design that are standard in most colleges and universities.
