Christine Schomisch Moravec, Ph.D. Class of 1978, J984G
Chri tine (Schomisch) Moravec, Ph.D., '78, ' 84G mends broken heart , and the assistant dean for basic cience education at the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine credits two John Carroll profe or for her successful career. Christine directs a research program focused on human heart failure, studying the hearts of cardiac transplant patients and testing the hypothe is that heart failure can be reversed using medical, surgical, and psychophysiological therapies.
Christine majored in religious studies at JCU and initially taught that ubject at Trinity High School in Garfield Height . Over time, she became interested in the chemistry class across the hall. That intere t spurred her return to Carroll to earn a master's in biology under the guidance of biology professor Cyrilla Wideman, Ph.D., and psychology professor Helen Murphy, Ph.D., '67G.
Christine is one of the first scientists to use human hearts to research human heart failure. Previously, people studied heart failure in mice, rats, and hamsters. During the late '80s, cardiologist Bernadine Healy, M.D., then the chair of the Cleveland Clinic Research Institute, suggested Christine study human hearts. Dr. Healy's husband was Cleveland Clinic's chief executive officer and head of cardiac surgery, so he helped her acces human hearts from transplant patients.
Christine's groundbreaking research included measuring calcium in human heart tissue using an electron microscope. One of her discoveries was a defect in the way calcium - which is needed for the heart to beat moves through heart cells. The defect occurs when one or two proteins malfunction. This discovery led to gene therapy in clinical trials to put protein back into cells and cure patients. She changed what doctors know about heart failure and the way they treat and prevent heart disease.
Christine discovered that a left ventricular assist device - a pump inserted in the chest that attaches to the heart - helps the heart recover by pumping blood while a patient waits for a transplant. In tissue studies before and after the device is implanted, researchers discovered some heart issues aren't irreversible as originally thought. Heart failure used to mean either a transplant or death because there aren't enough heart donors. Some patients thought they were beyond hope, but cells can recover. It's a paradigm shift in cardiac biology.
For her dedication to medical cience, as well a exemplary profe sional leadership, the John Carroll Alumni Association is pleased to award the 2016 Alumni Medal to Christine Moravec.

David W. Short Class of 1981
As chair of JCU' Board of Directors from 2009 to 2015, and a Board member since 1999, David Short has logged many mile over the year between hi native Pittsburgh and Univer ity Heights.
Fellow Board members and cia mates call him a tireless and inspirational man for other , who i dynamic, profes ional, and humble. Indeed, when Dave received JCU's inaugural Loyola Pre idential Medal and was Commencement peaker in 2015, he said one of the greatest lesson he learned at Carroll was humility.
As Board chair, Dave oversaw numerou campus improvements, including the renovation of Murphy Hall~ the installation of Hamlin Quad; the decornmi ioning of Bohannon Science Center; the establishment of the Tim Russert Department of Communication and Theatre Arts; and the successful launch of the Forever Carroll Campaign, which he and hi wife Beth very generou ly upported.
As a Carroll student, Dave was captain of the tennis and occer team , vice president of Iota Chi Upsilon (IXY) fraternity, and the Millor Orator. Sadly, hi father died during Dave' junior year. As one of six children, he knew completing hi degree wou ld be a financial burden on his family. A JCU Presidential Grant enabled him to graduate and instilled a tremendous sense of Carroll loyalty in him.
Professionally, Dave enjoyed a successful career in the financial services industry. He started at Federated Investors in 1982. Three years later, he went to work for American Funds Group, which manages more than trillion for individual and institutional investors. He started in sales, moved into management, and then retired in January 2009 at age 50 as chairman and co-chief executive officer. A former colleague ay Dave built and managed the best sales force in the asset management business. Because his career included extensive travel, he is gratefu l for the opportunity to spend more time with his family now.
The Shorts reside in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - close to where he grew up - and have four children; their son David is a 2014 Carroll graduate. Dave returns to campus often for Board-related commitments and comes back every fall to play in the McCarthy Alumni Soccer Game . He also remains close to fraternity brothers and helps raise funds for the IXY Scholarship.
For his dedication to his family and John Carroll University, his professional accomplishments, and a generosity of pirit and ervice to others, the John Carroll Alumni Association i pleased to award the 2016 Alumni Medal to David W. Short.

THE UNIVERSITY MACE
When universities and parliaments about the world gather together in solemn assembly, the way is often led by a mace bearer carrying an ornamental short staff that is the symbol of the authority of the gathering body. The symbol' early predecessor was the Roman fasces. a bundle of rods bound together and carried in front of magistrates: crowds in the streets seeing the fasces would give way to the magistrate's authority. The medieval mace wa. originally a blunt weapon favored by clergy who were forbidden to usc the sword. It also evolved into a symbol of authority; crowds quickly made way for anyone carrying such a ~ymbol.
The design at the top of the Uni versi ty Mace derives from the coats of arms on the university seal , emblems of Ignatius Loyola, founder of the Jesuits. Surmounted by a cross, two bronze wolves on either side of a brass cauldron stand for the Lo}Oias. The Onaz clan, his maternal side, is signified by fourteen alternating red and gold bands of enamelled copper. set at an angle around the head of the mace. Beneath is the inscription in Latin: John arroll niversity 1886. From the cross at the top to the horn button at the base the mace is 46 inches tall : it weighs I 00 ounces. The main shaft of the mace is ebony in the form of a fasces of fourteen rods , with a slight tapering at either end. The bindings of the rods. and the head and base of the mace arc all sil cr. A node on the base is engraved with the episcopal cal of Archbishop John Carroll , the first bishop of the United States and the eponym of the university. It depicts the Blessed Virgin with scepter and crown holding the Christ Chi ld ; thirteen stars for the thirteen states arc around them, the cro sed keys of St. Peter beneath , and the inscription in Latin: John, Bishop of Baltimore 1790. Inside the base is a copy of the Articles of Incorporation of the University, its charter. granted by the State of Ohio in 1890 in time to authori1e the university's first degrees.
The Universi ty Mace was crafted for John Carroll by the late Sol c Hallqvist , a well known local si lversmith, as his last commission ; it was designed by Fr. Peter Fennessy, S.J., former university marshal, and Dr. Roger Wclchans. retired professor of rt History. The niversity Mace wa a gift of the Executive Board of the John Carroll Alumni Association: it wa~ given in memory of Fr. Michael J. Lavelle, S.J ., twenty-first president of the universi ty ( 1934- 1995). The colors associated with the more common academic disciplines are: white for Arts and Letters; drab for Business; light blue for Education: purple for Law: dark blue for Philosophy; golden yellow for Science; and scarlet for Theology.
THE TRADITION OF ACADEMIC COSTUME
One of the more striking aspects of academic ceremonies is the colorful dress of the participants. n understanding of the tradi tions determining style and color of costumes can enrich one ·s attendance at such events. The distincti ve academic dress ha" its origin in the universitic of the Middle Ages where cold buildings and tonsured heads made warm gowns and protective hoods a matter of necess ity. lndividual institutions such as Cambridge and Oxford adopted special rules governing the kind of dress that ' as to be permitted, and the custom was repeated throughout Europe. lt i for thi. reason that some of the most eye-catching gowns arc those mandated by European schools.
In America. the practice has been omewhat less venturesome. Although the custom of wearing distinctive attire had existed incc the time of the colonial colleges, pre cnt Uc age seems to date from a conference held at Columbia in 1895. From that meeting
came a reso lution calling for the regulation by code of what was generally to be worn at academic events. That code. rcvi!>cd in 1932 and again in 1960, makes recommendations as to the pattern, material, color and trimmings to be used on academic gowns.
The bachelor 's gown, with long pointed sleeve, is worn closed. The master's gowns, which can be worn open. have a distinct oblong sleeve with an arc cut in the front. Doctors wear the bell- hapcd sleeved robes which arc marked with velvet facing in front and velvet bars on the sleeve. Although these gowns are all ord inari ly black. in recent years there have been exceptions made in color.
Hoods for the variou degrees differ in length. Bachelor wear three-foot hoods: Ma ters, three-and-a-half: and Doctors. fourfoot. They arc bound by vel vet or velveteen in colors which designate the wearer·s area of pecialization. and they are lined with the colors of the institution granting the degree. At John Carroll, the lining is blue and gold . Many institutions, however, have dispensed entirely w ith the bachelors' hood . The colors associated with the more common academic disciplines are: white for Arts and Letters; drab for Business; light blue for Education: purple for Law; dark blue for Philosophy: golden yellow for Science: and scarlet for Theology.
The cap traditionally worn is the black mo11ar board, although the tam and the Elizabethan will be seen on ome of the faculty. The tassel is most often black. Doctors frequently wear gold. and lawyers wear purple.
