Keeping Franklin’s Promise

In the words of one elegiac tribute, “Great men have two lives: one which occurs while they work on this earth; a second which begins at the day of their death and continues as long as their ideas and conceptions remain powerful.”

These words befit the great Benjamin Franklin, whose inventions, innovations, ideas, writings, and public works continue to shape our thinking and renew the Republic he helped to create and the institutions he founded, including the University of Pennsylvania.

Nowhere does Franklin feel more contemporary, more revolutionary, and more alive than at the University of Pennsylvania. His startling vision of a secular, nonsectarian Academy that would foster an “Inclination join’d with an Ability to serve Mankind, one’s Country, Friends and Family” has never ceased to challenge Penn to redefine the scope and mission of the modern American university.

When pursued vigorously and simultaneously, the two missions — developing the inclination to do good and the ability to do well — merge to help form a more perfect university that educates more capable citizens for our democracy.

Penn has embodied and advanced Franklin’s revolutionary vision for 278 years. Throughout its history, Penn has extended the frontiers of higher learning and research to produce graduates and scholars whose work has enriched the nation and all of humanity.

The modern liberal arts curriculum as we know it can trace its roots to Franklin’s innovation to have Penn students study international commerce and foreign languages.

The first medical and business schools in the United States were launched here.

And the first general-purpose electronic, digital computer — ENIAC — was invented right here at the University of Pennsylvania.

The Penn community’s extraordinary, ongoing support is at the heart of The Power of Penn: Advancing Knowledge for Good. The Campaign, publically launched in April 2018, will advance Penn’s goals to grow inclusion by building a diverse community for living, learning, and service; to spark innovation by inspiring inventive thinking across disciplines; and to accelerate impact by sharing the benefits of new knowledge and discoveries through active engagement with our local and global communities.

Today, Penn proudly graduates a class of men and women who have shown the intelligence, drive, integrity, and character to become engaged citizens who will serve humanity with distinction. Our Penn graduates are poised to take their place as productive democratic citizens and as just and humane stewards of our world.

In these challenging and perilous times, a world in need of young men and women who are willing to shoulder the moral responsibilities of leadership can look to Penn.

Franklin wrote: “We may make these times better if we bestir ourselves. The noblest question in the world is ‘What good may I do in it?’”

The answer to this question will be furnished by Franklin’s newest heirs, the graduates of 2018.

T he practice of sporting signs on caps and gowns as a form of public

proclamation at Commencement dates to the early 1760s and recalls an even more ancient tradition, originating in the practice of medieval universities. Penn’s archives contain several 18th century broadsides, printed in Latin, which were distributed to Commencement guests along with the regular programs. The broadsides contain a series of propositions classified under various academic headings. Presumably, the graduating students were willing to defend these theses against any assertions to the contrary. On the eve of the Revolution, however, statements such as “the rights of the people are as divine as the rights of their rulers” must have met with widespread sympathy.

ACADEMIC CEREMONY AND REGALIA Commencement exercises at American universities and colleges traditionally are composed of three essential elements: the Academic Procession, the conferring of degrees, and the Commencement address. This practice has been codified since 189.5., when a national conference on academic costume and ceremony was proposed and a plan known initially as the “Intercollegiate System” was formally adopted. The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania incorporated this code into the Statutes of the University in November 189.6. Now under the aegis of the American Council on Education, the “Academic Costume Code and Academic Ceremony Guide” was revised in 19.3.2 and 19.60.* Throughout the 20th century, Commencement at Penn has, with minor modifications, followed the dictates of the code and its revisions.

By 189.6, however, Penn had been granting degrees for nearly 140 years. Like other American colonial colleges, Penn borrowed its 18th century commencement rituals directly from the English universities. In England the history of academic dress reaches back to the early days of the oldest

schools. As early as the second half of the 14th century, the statutes of certain colleges prohibited “excess in apparel” and required the wearing of a long gown. It is still an open question as to whether academic dress finds its sources chiefly in ecclesiastical or in civilian dress. It is often suggested that gowns and hoods were the simplest, most effective method of staying warm in the unheated, stone buildings that housed medieval scholars. In any case, academic regalia had evolved to contemporary familiarity by the time Benjamin Franklin was awarded an honorary Doctor of Laws by the University of St. Andrews in 175.9..

TRADITIONS AND CURRENT PRACTICE AT PENN In April 1887, on the recommendation of a committee of the faculty, the Trustees adopted the “‘Pennsylvania’ System of Academic Costume.” The colors and trimmings of hoods and caps were regularized according to faculty and degree. Beginning with the Commencement of 1887, the “‘Pennsylvania’ System” was published in each year’s program and adherence to its rules was expected of trustees, faculty, and students alike. Beginning in 189.6, the “‘Pennsylvania’ System” was superseded by the “Intercollegiate System,” which has continued in effect to the present time.

The gowns used in American academic ceremonies vary according to the highest degree awarded to the wearer. The gown for the bachelor’s degree has pointed sleeves; it is designed to be worn closed. The gown for the master’s degree has an oblong sleeve, open at the wrist. The sleeve base hangs down in the traditional manner. The rear part of its oblong shape is square cut and the front has an arc cut away. The master’s gown may be worn open or closed. The doctoral gown is a more elaborate costume faced down the front with black velvet and across the sleeves with three bars of the same; these facings and crossbars may be of velvet of the color distinctive to the field of study to which

the degree pertains. The doctoral gown has bell-shaped sleeves and may be worn open or closed. Some institutions have authorized doctoral gowns in colors other than the customary black; holders of the University of Pennsylvania doctorate may wear red and blue gowns.

The hoods are lined in silk with the official color or colors of the college or university which granted the highest degree held by the wearer; more than one color is shown by division of the field color in a variety of ways, such as by chevron or chevrons. The binding or edging of the hood is in velvet, with widths of two inches, three inches, and five inches for the bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees, respectively. The color of the border indicates the field of study to which the degree pertains. University of Pennsylvania graduates wear a hood lined in red with a blue chevron. The mortarboard cap is standard, though soft square-topped caps are permissible. Recipients of doctorates may wear a gold tassel fastened to the middle point of the top of the cap; all others wear black.

President and Provost

Chair of the Board of Trustees

Commencement Speaker

Candidates for Honorary Degrees

Deans

Overseers

Visiting Dignitaries

UNIVERSITY MACE The Secretary of the University carries the University mace, the symbol of authority of the University, at the head of the Academic Procession. It was a gift of the family of William Murray Gordon, M.D. 19.10. It is adorned with the seal and arms of the University, the Penn and Franklin coats-of-arms, a depiction of the Rittenhouse Orrery, and a thistle symbolizing the early ties of the University with Scotland.

PRESIDENT’S BADGE OF OFFICEThe President wears as a badge of office a silver medallion of which one face is engraved, like the mace, with the University seal. The obverse of the President’s medal bears the “orrery seal,” designed in 1782 by Francis Hopkinson, A.B. 175.7, a signer of the Declaration of Independence. The medal, suspended on a chain composed of silver links, was given by the late Trustee Thomas Sovereign Gates, Jr., A.B. 19.28, LL.D. 19.5.6, on the occasion of Sheldon Hackney’s inauguration as President in October 19.81.

U N I V E R S I T Y S E A L A N D S Y M B O L S

SEAL OF THE CORPORATIONThe Trustees of the University have an official seal that is, in effect, the signature of the Corporation. It had its origin at a meeting of the Board of Trustees in 175.5. with Benjamin Franklin as Chairman. Though the seal underwent changes over the years, the most recent design, approved in 19.3.2 and adopted in 19.3.3., returned it to virtually its original form.

The seal is composed of seven books stacked on a slanted desktop, with the books bearing the following titles, representing the curricula of the day: Theolog, Astronom, Philosoph, Mathemat, Logica, Rhetorica, Grammatica. On the periphery of the stack of books appears the University motto, Leges Sine Moribus Vanae, and the whole is encircled with the inscription Universitatis Pennsylvaniensis.

PENN COAT-OF-ARMS The Penn coat-of-arms was derived by combining the coat of arms of Benjamin Franklin and that of William Penn’s family. The dolphin on the red chief was part of Franklin’s coat-of-arms and the three silver plates on a blue chevron were a part of Penn’s. The two were combined on a white shield along with two open volumes representing the University’s educational purpose.

MOTTO: LEGES SINE MORIBUS VANAEThe motto of the University, Leges Sine Moribus Vanae, means “Laws without morals are useless.” It comes from the longer quotation from Horace, “Quid leges sine moribus vanae proficiunt?” the sense of which is “Of what avail are empty laws without (good) morals?”

SCHOOL COLORS Eighteenth century American academic institutions did not have colors. The earliest known representation of the combined Penn colors, red and blue, is on the incised lid of the 1871 College Hall cornerstone.

One legend traces their origins to an early track meet at Saratoga, New York, between Penn, Harvard, and Yale. When asked by the officials what colors would be representing the Penn team, the Pennsylvania captain reportedly replied, “We’re going to be wearing the colors of the teams we beat,” i.e., Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue. We shall assume that Penn was victorious and thus remained loyal to the Red and Blue.

S C H O O L S O F T H E U N I V E R S I T Y 2018C L A S S O F

SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES (1755)The School of Arts and Sciences (SAS) is the direct descendant of the College of Philadelphia, where Benjamin Franklin established the first modern arts and sciences curriculum in the English colonies. Undergraduate programs for men date to the chartering of the College in 175.5.; the College of Liberal Arts for Women was founded in 19.3.3.. The Graduate School was established in 1882 with the appointment of a Faculty of Philosophy. The College of Liberal and Professional Studies (lifelong learning) traces its roots to 189.2. The School of Arts and Sciences was born in 19.74 with the merger of the College of Arts and Sciences, the College for Women, the Graduate School, and four social science departments from Wharton. Today, SAS is the largest of the University’s 12 schools, providing a liberal arts education for all Penn undergraduates and supporting graduate studies, basic research, and continuing education across the full range of the humanities, natural sciences, and social sciences. The School has 27 departments with 5.17 standing faculty, 22 research centers, four interschool institutes, and 10,000 students.

PERELMAN SCHOOL OF MEDICINE (1765)Established in 1765. as the nation’s first medical school, what is now known as the Raymond and Ruth Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania continues a rich tradition of providing the nation’s best medical training and education, with service to its community as a cornerstone. Today, the School, which has been named to the top five medical schools in the nation by U.S. News and World Report for the past 20 consecutive years, honors its longstanding commitment to advancing knowledge and improving health close to home and across the world through research, patient care, and the education of trainees in an inclusive culture that embraces diversity. More than 780 students are pursuing medical degrees in the Perelman School, and over 600 are studying toward doctorates in biomedical sciences, with nearly 200 more enrolled in joint MD/PhD

programs. Across the School’s affiliated hospitals, 1,3.00 residents and fellows are completing their medical training. Over the past decade, the Perelman School of Medicine has consistently been among the top recipients of research funding from the National Institutes of Health.

LAW SCHOOL (1790) Penn’s engagement in legal education began in 179.0 with a series of lectures to President Washington and his cabinet by James Wilson, the University’s first law professor, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, and one of the original justices of the Supreme Court of the United States. A formal program of instruction in law was established in 185.0 under George Sharswood, and innovative legal education has been part of the Penn fabric since that time. Today, Penn Law provides a cross-disciplinary, globally-focused legal education taught by preeminent scholars, approximately 70 percent of whom hold advanced degrees in fields in addition to law. Students augment the teaching provided by Penn Law faculty with classes taken — and certificates of study and joint degrees earned — in sister schools and departments throughout the University. In the 2017-2018 academic year, Penn Law has over 9.00 students and 67 full-time faculty. Penn Law awards five degrees: the Juris Doctor (JD); Master of Laws (LLM) for internationally trained lawyers; Master of Comparative Laws (LLCM); Doctor of Juridical Science (SJD); and a Master in Law (ML) for non-lawyers.

SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING AND APPLIED SCIENCE (1852)The School of Engineering and Applied Science is one of the oldest in the United States, tracing its beginnings to the establishment of the School of Mines, Arts and Manufactures in 185.2. The first graduate of the School received a Bachelor of Science degree in 185.4. Since that time, the School has grown into a center of excellence in the creation of technology and in technology education. Its spirit of innovation led to the creation in 19.46 of ENIAC, the first all-electronic, large-scale, general-purpose digital computer, making

Penn Engineering the birthplace of the computer age. Today, Penn Engineering offers a wide range of undergraduate and graduate programs, including the first alternative liberal arts program based in an engineering school. Penn Engineering is particularly distinguished by its interdisciplinary, cross-school programs such as Management and Technology, Digital Media Design, Biotechnology, and the Singh Program in Networked and Social Systems Engineering. Penn Engineering currently has 120 standing faculty, approximately 1,600 undergraduate students, 1,700 graduate students, and 15. research centers and institutes.

SCHOOL OF DESIGN (1869)Although the School of Design dates its founding from 189.0, architecture courses were first offered at the University of Pennsylvania in 1869., making Penn’s architecture program the second oldest in the United States. In 19.21, the Department of Architecture joined with the Department of Music and Fine Arts to create an independent undergraduate School of Fine Arts modeled on the French École des Beaux Arts. In 19.5.8, the School was renamed the Graduate School of Fine Arts, reflecting the shift to graduate degree offerings in architecture, city and regional planning, landscape architecture, and fine arts. In the 19.80s, a program in historic preservation was added. To more accurately capture the School’s sphere of influence, it was renamed the School of Design in 2003.. Today, with a standing faculty of 43., approximately 160 lecturers and associated faculty, and more than 700 students, the School prepares students to address complex sociocultural and environmental issues through thoughtful inquiry, creative expression, and innovation.

SCHOOL OF DENTAL MEDICINE (1878)Established in 1878 as the Dental Department of the University of Pennsylvania, the School of Dental Medicine is among the oldest university-affiliated dental institutions in the country, with a history deeply rooted in forging precedents in dental education, research, and patient care. In 189.7, Thomas W. Evans, a Philadelphia native and clinician who spent most of his life in France as the dentist to European nobility, left his estate to create a dental school that was “second to none.” Evans’ bequest would become one with the University, creating the Thomas W. Evans Museum and Dental Institute, which opened in 19.15.. Today, the Evans Building remains the site of much of the School’s clinical instruction. The dental campus also includes the Robert Schattner Center and the Leon Levy Center for Oral Health Research, home to the basic sciences and extensive research activities. Penn Dental Medicine is a major provider of care in West Philadelphia, and through outreach programs students log nearly 13.,100 hours each year serving approximately 15.,200 residents in the surrounding Philadelphia neighborhoods. Penn Dental Medicine offers the degrees of Doctor of Dental Medicine, Master of Science in Oral Biology, and Doctor of Science in Dentistry, and trains postdoctoral students in endodontics, oral medicine, oral and maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, periodontics, periodontics/orthodontics, periodontal/prosthesis and prosthodontics. In the 2017-2018 academic year, Penn Dental Medicine has 5.84 DMD students and 106 Post-Doctoral students including 15. students enrolled in the Doctor of Science in Dentistry with certificate; 28 students in the Master of Science in Oral Biology program with certificate; three students in the Doctor of Science in Dentistry stand-alone program; and 13. postdoctoral researchers. The School has 43.0 faculty members, including 43. standing faculty.

WHARTON SCHOOL (1881)The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, founded in 1881, is recognized globally for empowering the best minds in business and transforming business education. The most comprehensive source of business knowledge in the world, Wharton offers programs on every continent and bridges research and practice by actively engaging with the global business community in every sector. The School has more than 5.,000 undergraduate, MBA, and doctoral students; nearly 10,000 participants annually in its executive education programs; and a network of 9.6,000 alumni in 15.3. countries.

SCHOOL OF VETERINARY MEDICINE (1884)Ranked among the top 10 veterinary schools worldwide, the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine (Penn Vet) is a global leader in veterinary education, research, and clinical care. Founded in 1884, Penn Vet is the first veterinary school developed in association with a medical school. The School is a proud member of the One Health initiative, linking human, animal, and environmental health. Penn Vet serves a diverse population of animals at its two campuses, which include extensive diagnostic and research laboratories. Ryan Hospital in Philadelphia provides care for dogs, cats, and other domestic/companion animals, handling nearly 3.5.,000 patient visits a year. New Bolton Center, Penn Vet’s large-animal hospital on nearly 700 acres in rural Kennett Square, PA, cares for horses and livestock/farm animals. The hospital handles nearly 4,9.00 patient visits a year, while the Field Service treats more than 3.8,000 patients at local farms. In addition, New Bolton Center’s campus includes a swine center, working dairy, and poultry unit that provide valuable research for the agriculture industry.

GRADUATE SCHOOL OF EDUCATION (1914)The University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Education (Penn GSE) is one of the nation’s premier schools of education, consistently producing top-ranked researchers and educational leaders. The University of Pennsylvania created its first professorship in education in 189.4 and established the full-fledged School of Education in 19.14. The School’s first graduating class in 19.15. comprised three women and three men, who received the School’s first Bachelor of Science in Education degrees. In 19.61, the School was restructured and renamed the Graduate School of Education. Penn GSE launched an Administrative Leadership Program in 19.71 to prepare school administrators for creative and dynamic leadership. This was the first in a long line of successful leadership programs. Today, Penn GSE offers 3.5. programs leading to the PhD, EdD, MPhil Ed., and MS Ed degrees in more than 3.0 fields of education. Reflecting a deep commitment to urban education, Penn GSE’s students and researchers are involved in schools across every catchment area of the School District of Philadelphia, including robust partnerships with two West Philadelphia schools. Penn GSE is also home to the Milken-Penn GSE Education Business Plan Competition, intended to spark innovations that improve education by bringing together entrepreneurs and funders for sustained collaboration. No other education school enjoys a university environment as supportive of practical knowledge building as Penn GSE.

SCHOOLS OF THE UNIVERSITY (continued)

SCHOOL OF NURSING (1935) Nursing education at Penn began in 1886 when the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania started a nurse training program. In 19.3.5., the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania established a nursing degree program within the School of Education, and in 19.5.0 the School of Nursing was established. The Master of Science in Nursing program was instituted in 19.61, the Doctor of Nursing Science program in 19.78, and the Doctor of Philosophy program in 19.84. These innovations, and a curriculum which progressively reflects changing health care delivery patterns, have advanced the School into the first rank of American schools of nursing. The School has two departments, Biobehavioral Health Sciences and Family and Community Health. It is widely recognized for its leadership in nursing research in the areas of health outcomes and policy research, nursing history, biobehavioral health sciences, global women’s health, health equity, aging, and transitions in health. It also has a global reputation for innovations in nurse-managed clinical practice and is a World Health Organization Collaborating Center for Nursing and Midwifery Leadership. The School has 5.7 standing faculty and 1,3.09. students.

SCHOOL OF SOCIAL POLICY & PRACTICE (1948)The School of Social Policy & Practice began in 19.08 as a private school that opened its doors to five students in the field of child welfare. The School affiliated itself with the University in 19.3.5. and became a formal school in 19.48. In 2005., it changed its name from the School of Social Work to the School of Social Policy & Practice. The School offers the Master of Social Work, Master of Science in Nonprofit Leadership, Master of Science in Social Policy, Doctor of Philosophy in Social Welfare, and Doctor of Social Work degrees. The School is devoted to advancing human welfare, promoting social justice, and developing effective societal responses to global human need.

H O N O R A R Y D E G R E E C I T A T I O N S

SYLVIA EARLEYour life’s work quite literally found you. At age three, a wave crashed on the beach, upended you, and sparked a passion. Over seven decades, as a marine biologist, oceanographer, explorer, and conservationist, you have kept a watchful eye on the ocean ever since. You are a pioneer of marine ecosystems research. Your more than 7,000 hours underwater in over 100 expeditions have earned you the affectionate moniker, “Her Deepness.” You have broken depth diving records, designed and piloted submarines, advised on the impacts of overfishing and oil spills, and worked tirelessly to restore and protect the health of the world’s oceans.

As a child, your parents nurtured your growing curiosity about the natural world. Unfazed that few women then pursued the sciences, you were often the only woman in class during your master’s and doctoral work at Duke University. You pushed against the norms of the day. On a 19.64 Indian Ocean expedition, you spent weeks as the sole woman working alongside 70 men. In 19.70, you went on to lead an all-female aquanaut team in the underwater habitat Tektite II, a joint NASA-U.S. Navy project. Your determined efforts led, in 19.9.0, to service as the first woman chief scientist for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Since 19.9.8, you have been an Explorer-in-Residence at the National Geographic Society.

The founder of Deep Ocean Exploration and Research, today you head its science advisory board and serve as project director for Sustainable Seas Expeditions, a joint venture of NOAA and the National Geographic Society.

In the face of challenges as daunting as species depletion, pollution, and changes wrought by warming waters, you show by example how to care for our oceans, reminding us that we humans must live as part of nature, not apart from it. In 2009., you founded Mission Blue and the Sylvia Earle Alliance, bringing together over 200 conservation groups and other organizations. United to raise public

awareness and empower communities worldwide to champion the “blue heart” of our planet, they have helped create a global network of marine protected areas. These unique “Hope Spots” now thrive worldwide, and their number grows.

The author of hundreds of publications and 13. books, you have lectured in over 9.0 countries, and are the subject of the Emmy-winning Netflix documentary, “Mission Blue.” In 2017, TIME magazine named you to its “Time Firsts,” honoring trailblazing women who are changing the world.

Your many other accolades include the United Nations Environment Champion of the Earth, National Geographic’s Hubbard Medal, the Royal Geographical Society’s Patrons Medal, the Carl Sagan Award for the Understanding of Science, and the Rachel Carson Prize. In 2000, the U.S. Library of Congress recognized you as a “Living Legend.”

For your insightful and inspiring dedication to protecting the precious resources that are our oceans and their inhabitants, the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania are honored and pleased to confer upon you, Sylvia Earle, the degree of Doctor of Sciences, honoris causa.

FREEMAN A. HRABOWSKIIn 19.63., your native home of Birmingham, Alabama was considered one of the most segregated places in the United States. On May 2nd that year, at age 12, you answered the call to join Martin Luther King, Jr.’s Children’s Crusade. Facing fire hoses and police dogs, you peacefully marched and sang in the streets. With over 600 children, you were taken into custody and held for five days. The protests caught the world’s attention and marked the beginning of the end of segregation in Birmingham. Soon, President John F. Kennedy, citing events there, announced he would introduce new federal civil rights legislation. Thus began your life of advocacy and service for social justice and for equality in education.

As a child, you loved math and preferred homework to other pursuits. Following

your dreams, you completed your undergraduate studies at what is now Hampton University and earned your M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.

Throughout your noteworthy career, your research has investigated science and math education, focusing on minority participation and performance. Dedicated to educational diversity, particularly in underrepresented disciplines, your efforts support African American, Latino, and students from low-income backgrounds in pursuit of science and engineering careers. Since 19.9.2, you have served with distinction as the president of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, leading that school on its path to national leadership in academic innovation.

At UMBC, you have dramatically improved the successful completion rates of science and engineering coursework for all students, instituting programs that raise expectations, encourage a community of peer support, and actively engage students in research. Your redesign of foundational courses helped spark students’ passion for achievement. In 19.88, you co-founded the Meyerhoff Scholars Program, a national model emphasizing mentoring, financial support, and advising, to advance underrepresented minorities in STEM fields. The program has over 1,100 alumni nationwide. Today, UMBC graduates more African-American students who go on to complete doctorates or medical school than any other college in the nation.

From 2009.-2014, UMBC was recognized as the nation’s number one “Up and Coming” university by U.S. News & World Report. Now, and for the last three years, it has been recognized as one of its top 10 most innovative national universities.

A member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and American Philosophical Society, you were named in 2009. to America’s 10 Best College Presidents by TIME magazine — later, as one of its 100 Most Influential People in the World. You have received the TIAA-CREF Theodore M. Hesburgh Award for Leadership Excellence and

the Heinz Award for contributions to improving the “Human Condition.” This year, the American Council on Education honored you with its lifetime achievement award.

For your steadfast and innovative efforts on behalf of higher education and boundless opportunity for all students, the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania are honored and pleased to confer upon you, Freeman A. Hrabowski, the degree of Doctor of Humane Letters, honoris causa.

ELIHU KATZ When a scholar’s unique perspective is fundamental to understanding a field of study, we say “they wrote the book.” For you, this is quite literally the case. While still a graduate student at Columbia University in 19.5.5., you co-wrote the discipline-defining Personal Influence: The Part Played by People in the Flow of Mass Communications. A foundational work on mass media and interpersonal communication, the book was republished for its 5.0th anniversary.

One of the first to recognize the profound significance of television to culture, politics, and society, you saw audiences not as passive consumers but rather as participants within a powerful interactive process. Your wide-ranging interests have encompassed studies as diverse as the nature of the soap opera, the way that media-driven ideas diffuse through a population, and social, political, and religious attitudes in Israel.

A native New Yorker, your career has spanned eight decades, two continents, and has earned the great esteem of your peers worldwide. A member of Penn’s faculty from 19.9.2 to 2014, when you became Distinguished Trustee Professor Emeritus of Communication at the Annenberg School, you are also Emeritus Professor of Sociology and Communication at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. For many years, you commuted between posts at the University of Chicago and Hebrew University, where you founded its Communications Institute.

As director of the Israel Institute of Applied Social Research, you were asked by the Israeli government to steward the introduction of broadcasting there as the founding Director of Israeli Television. You subsequently assisted in introducing broadcasting to developing countries.

Ever a strong proponent of mentorship and collaboration, you engaged in a 15.-year partnership with colleague Daniel Dayan, culminating in the 19.9.2 work Media Events, assembling and examining a library of live broadcasts of historic occasions that attracted enormous audiences.

You also directed the Annenberg School’s experimental Scholars program for postdoctoral study and, through the years, were an enthusiastic mentor to dozens of doctoral students, many now leading scholars themselves. You are the author of over 20 books and 200 scholarly articles, and Penn has created a digital archive of your papers to ensure that your work is available to communication scholars worldwide.

Your memberships and fellowships include the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the Sociological Research Society, the International Communication Association, and the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences. In recognition of your contributions, you have received the UNESCO-Canada McLuhan Prize and the Israel Prize for Social Sciences, that country’s most prestigious academic award. You have also served on the Israeli Councils on Culture and Arts and of Film, and you chaired the U.S. Educational Foundation in Israel.

For your groundbreaking scholarship that has formatively advanced our understanding of communication studies and human interaction, the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania are honored and pleased to confer upon you, Elihu Katz, the degree of Doctor of Sciences, honoris causa.

ANDREA MITCHELLYou got your start in broadcast journalism as a barely-entry-level night shift “copy boy.” Little did you imagine that one day you would come face-to-face with tyranny, staring down Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir in a line of questioning that led to you being dragged off by armed guards. You asked about the genocide in Darfur. He demurred. You didn’t give an inch — a vital skill for a tough journalist, and one you learned right from the start when you were told: “We can’t have a woman in the newsroom.” Just graduated from Penn, you were undaunted — and did not give in. Management relented by giving you the least desirable desk assistant shift, midnight to eight in the morning. Having gotten in, you were determined to seize every opportunity in your path.

Those “copy boy” days led to work as the City Hall Reporter on Philadelphia’s KYW radio and television. You flourished under the pressures of daily journalism. Joining NBC News in 19.78, you covered energy and were chief correspondent for both Congress and the White House.

Today, as Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent for NBC News and host of the MSNBC program Andrea Mitchell Reports, you are one of the industry’s most respected broadcast journalists. Your insightful reporting and challenging interviews inform millions on the critical issues of our time. Those at the receiving end of your tough questions have called you relentless, tenacious, and impossibly ever-present. Your reply: “I’ve covered seven presidents now…and have not endeared myself to any of them. That’s the job.” An eyewitness to history, you are a trusted voice on NBC Nightly News, Today, and as panelist and host on the venerable Meet the Press.

You have credited your parents for your indomitable work ethic of preparation, dedication, and persistence. As a child in New Rochelle, New York, you loved reading, writing, and, as a talented violinist, you also loved music. Curiosity and music would lead you to your life’s work. As a Penn undergraduate, you were drawn by familiar classical strains to the student radio station, WXPN. Still

a freshman, you soon hosted a program and would later be the station’s Program Director.

Despite nonstop work and near-constant travel, you are a proud Quaker, always keeping Penn close. A longtime Trustee, now Emerita, you were Vice Chair and a member of the Executive Committee. You led by example as Co-Chair of Penn’s record-breaking Making History Campaign and as a founding member of the Trustees’ Council of Penn Women. Ever generous with your time and talents, you now chair the Board of Overseers of the School of Arts and Sciences.

With your husband, Alan Greenspan, you generously endowed two Penn Integrates Knowledge professorships and the Andrea Mitchell Center for the Study of Democracy. Support for Penn’s music programs and Kelly Writers House reflects your continuing love of music and words.

Your many awards include the International Women’s Media Foundation’s Courage in Journalism Lifetime Achievement Award, the Goldsmith Career Award for Excellence in Journalism from Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, and the Society for Professional Journalists Lifetime Achievement Award. Penn has recognized your exceptional service with its Alumni Award of Merit. Your engaging 2005. memoir, Talking Back: …to Presidents, Dictators, and Assorted Scoundrels, recounts experiences as a pioneering woman in broadcast news.

For your inspirational example of always pursuing your career — and your story — with integrity and passion, and for your abiding friendship on behalf of your alma mater, the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania are proud to call you one of their own and are delighted and honored to confer upon you, Andrea Mitchell, the degree of Doctor of Humane Letters, honoris causa.

YANNICK NÉZET-SÉGUINAs you step to the podium, baton in hand, anticipation soars. One of the most renowned conductors and music directors of our time, you are justly celebrated for eliciting superlative performances from the world’s finest musical artists. The sublime results may seem to be the expected outcome of shared interpretation. In reality, they are born of your intense preparation, infectious energy, generous collaboration — and of your countless minute calibrations binding heart to musicality, sparking an electric connection between audience and performers.

You have humbly offered: “I am, without doubt, the luckiest music director in the world today.” Without question, it was the city’s great good fortune when, in 2012, you began your tenure as the Philadelphia Orchestra’s Music Director and Walter and Leonore Annenberg Chair. Later this year, New York’s Metropolitan Opera will also have the benefit of your talents as you assume the role of Music Director there as well. Signifying your tireless dedication to your art, your additional appointments include Artistic Director and Principal Conductor of Montreal’s Orchestre Métropolitain since 2000 and Music Director of the Rotterdam Philharmonic since 2008.

Born in Montreal, you first picked up the baton at age 10, having begun musical training at five. You studied piano, conducting, composition, and chamber music at Montreal’s Conservatory of Music. You enriched and expanded your education with world-renowned conductors. At age 19., you took on Directorship of the Chœur Polyphonique de Montréal. The following year, you founded the Ensemble Orchestral de Montréal, and at 22, you became Assistant Conductor and Choir Master at the Opéra de Montréal.

In your career, you have worked with renowned musical ensembles across the globe, including your native Canada. You are equally at home in the opera pit, with celebrated performances at Milan’s La Scala, London’s Royal Opera House, and the historic Salzburg Festival.

Under your leadership, the Philadelphia Orchestra enjoys a reinvigorated repertoire and critical acclaim for its domestic and global performances, as well as its recordings. Promoting appreciation for musical performance, the Orchestra actively engages the Philadelphia community through a series of initiatives, dubbed HEAR, to promote health, champion music education, eliminate barriers to access, and maximize impact. Programs reaching over 5.0,000 students, families, and community members include free neighborhood and school concerts, local residencies, and “PlayINs,” where aspiring artists perform side-by-side with Orchestra members.

Among your many honors are Musical America’s 2016 Artist of the Year, the Royal Philharmonic Society Award, the Prix Denise-Pelletier awarded by Quebec, and Prix Oskar Morawetz. You are a Companion of the Order of Canada and the Order of Arts and Letters of Québec, as well as an Officer of the National Order of Québec.

For your unparalleled artistic mastery and boundless enthusiasm for sharing your passion for music with artists and audiences alike, the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania are honored and pleased to confer upon you, Yannick Nézet-Séguin, the degree of Doctor of Music, honoris causa.

PEGGY NOONANOn the blue-sky morning of January 28, 19.86, America reeled from the sudden, tragic loss of seven astronauts in the Challenger Space Shuttle disaster. Within hours, President Ronald Reagan would take to the national airwaves to address a distraught nation. As his special assistant and speechwriter, you worked to craft a message honoring those lost and offering solace and reassurance for those mourning. The simple, brilliant words he delivered comforted and unified our country in what would become known as one of the great speeches of the 20th century. Then in 19.89., you worked with President Reagan on his farewell address, and with President-elect George H. W. Bush on his inaugural address given just nine days later.

HONORARY DEGREE CITATIONS (continued)

And so it has been throughout your career. In your authentic, straightforward, and eloquent voice, you have offered since 2000 your unique perspective on American politics, history, and culture in your editorial column “Declarations” in The Wall Street Journal. Each week, on issues as divergent as the lure of social media, the importance of good manners, or the nature of love of country and political service, you make your reasoned argument, bolstering it with the breadth of your historical knowledge, spot-on cultural references, irresistibly intriguing stories, and an unfaltering internal compass. When awarding you the Pulitzer Prize in Journalism for Distinguished Commentary for your work chronicling the 2016 American presidential election, the committee rightfully commended your “beautifully rendered columns that connected readers to the shared virtues of Americans.”

Born in Brooklyn, New York, you grew up as a lover of books and poetry, always knowing that you wanted to be a writer. A graduate of Fairleigh Dickinson University, your journalism career began at the Boston all-news radio station WEEI and, later, as a producer and writer at CBS News in New York. You have taught at New York University and Yale University, and have been a fellow at Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy Institute of Politics. Today, you also serve as a political analyst for NBC News.

You are the best-selling author of nine books, the first a memoir of the Reagan era, What I Saw at the Revolution. You have also written illuminating biographies of President Reagan and Pope John Paul II. Most recently, you published The Time of Our Lives, a collection of your columns and other articles. You are one of ten historians and writers who contributed essays on the American presidency for the book, Character Above All.

A Trustee of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute, you are also the recipient of the 2010 Award for Media Excellence, bestowed by the living recipients of the Congressional Medal of Honor. In 2011,

you were chosen Columnist of the Year by The Week magazine. You have also been named a Library Lion of the New York Public Library.

For offering your clarity of expression, thought, and perspective, and for urging us to achieve a deeper understanding of ourselves, our culture, and our country, the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania are honored and pleased to confer upon you, Peggy Noonan, the degree of Doctor of Humane Letters, honoris causa.

LAUREL THATCHER ULRICHA blanket. A wooden chest. A teapot. All ordinary objects, but under your patient, painstaking scrutiny, each have shared stories of complexity and depth that changed our view of history. In your life’s work as a scholar of early American history and that of women, close and careful observation is fundamental. But in turning the light of inquiry toward things crafted, gathered, given, utilized, or discarded, you have revealed the hidden, unrecorded lives of history makers: those of women. Through your work, we have learned their stories. Bound by community, faith, and duty in ministering and caring for their families, they left an indelible social, cultural, and economic imprint within their worlds. To overlook these lives that were nearly invisible by most measures would be to risk misunderstanding history altogether.

You were born in Sugar City, Idaho, and it is fitting that a pioneering scholar would be a descendant of its earliest settlers. After undergraduate studies at the University of Utah and an M.A. in English from Simmons College, you were a mother of five when you received a Ph.D. in history in 19.80 from the University of New Hampshire. Faculty appointments there and at Harvard ensued, where in 2006 you were named the 3.00th Anniversary University Professor.

Among your many books, articles, and essays, A Midwife’s Tale: The Life of Martha Ballard, Based on Her Diary, 1785-1812, captured particular public attention and critical acclaim. The book offered insight into the lives of early American women through study

of the journal of an obscure medical practitioner in rural Maine. A recipient of the Bancroft Prize, A Midwife’s Tale also received the 19.9.1 Pulitzer Prize for History, the first work of women’s history to do so. Your own life as both a committed Mormon and feminist informs your most recent work, A House Full of Females: Plural Marriage and Women’s Rights in Early Mormonism, 1835-1870.

In 19.76, you penned the phrase, “well-behaved women seldom make history,” in an article about New England sermons. Re-interpreted and often unattributed, the phrase found long-lived global recognition on objects as ordinary as coffee mugs, t-shirts, and bumper stickers. In 2007, in a book of the same name, you offered thoughts about the phrase’s journey and about women who had indeed made history.

You are known as a generous, engaging teacher and mentor, and your books are frequent classroom requisites, sparking the intellectual curiosity of countless students and readers. A past president of the American Historical Association, you are also a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the American Philosophical Society. In addition to frequent recognition by your peers, you have earned Guggenheim and MacArthur Foundation fellowships. The National Endowment for the Humanities recognized you for outstanding contributions to public understanding of the humanities.

In recognition of your path-breaking inquiry and meticulous scholarship that illuminates the quiet lives of American women and their contributions to our shared history, the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania are honored and pleased to confer upon you, Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, the degree of Doctor of Humane Letters, honoris causa.

HAMDI ULUKAYAGreat inspiration is sometimes found in the most unusual places. Your happening across an advertisement selling an 85.-year-old yogurt plant fast-tracked an amazing American success story — which began far from these shores. Born into a dairy farming family in eastern Turkey, you were a politically active student at Ankara University in 19.9.4 when dangerous attention from authorities spurred your decision to come to the United States. For the next decade, in upstate New York, you studied and began a small business. Your 2005. visit to that nearby yogurt plant inspired a dream, a business plan, and a new American company.

Just two years later, with five employees, Chobani delivered its first yogurt to one Long Island grocery store. Today, Chobani is the United States’ top selling Greek yogurt, with 2016 sales of $1.6 billion, and one of the decade’s fastest growing food companies. With your vision to market a yogurt style then virtually unknown in the United States, and your steadfast guidance as founder, Chair, and CEO, Chobani set its values to make food with natural ingredients only, to take care of its employees, and to do good in the world.

You now have 2,200 employees in New York and Twin Falls, Idaho. Driven by your strong commitment to assist those disadvantaged by displacement, Chobani has always sought to hire refugees and immigrants to work together with local Americans. You have said: “The minute a refugee has a job, that’s the minute they stop being a refugee.” Today, some 3.0 percent of your employees are immigrants from more than 15. countries; nearly 3.00 were refugees. At times, you have weathered angry anti-immigrant backlash, but you remain undeterred.

You are known for forward-thinking business practices, particularly for manufacturing, announcing in 2016 a groundbreaking profit-sharing program and generous paid employee parental leave. To empower and mentor other socially responsible food entrepreneurs, you launched the Chobani Food Incubator.

Chobani has always donated a portion of its profits and, as a Giving Pledge signer, you have committed much of your wealth to addressing the global refugee crisis. In 2015., you founded the Tent Foundation, calling on the private sector to lead innovatively to assist the more than 20 million refugees worldwide. Over 70 firms now partner with Tent to provide relief resources, offer job training and employment opportunities, and more.

In recognition of your work, you were named an Eminent Advocate by the United Nations Refugee Agency and received Save the Children’s Humanitarian Award. In 2017, you were one of Time’s 100 Most Influential People, and Chobani was named to Fortune’s roster of Change the World companies. This year, the Martin Luther King, Jr., Center for Nonviolent Social Change presented Chobani with its Salute to Greatness Award, one of its highest honors.

For your personal humanitarian efforts and your inspired entrepreneurial leadership creating an enterprise that marries competitive success with compassionate service to its employees, its neighbors, and the world, the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania are honored and pleased to confer upon you, Hamdi Ulukaya, the degree of Doctor of Humane Letters, honoris causa.

As final action cannot always be taken by the time this program goes to press, these lists of degree and prize recipients are tentative only. The appearance of a name in this program should not be construed as an indication that the person has received a degree from the University of Pennsylvania. Conversely, the absence of a student’s name herein does not necessarily mean that the person has not been awarded a Penn degree. The student’s transcript is the official record of the University.

As final action cannot always be taken by the time this program goes to press, these lists of degree and prize recipients are tentative only. The appearance of a name in this program should not be construed as an indication that the person has received a degree from the University of Pennsylvania. Conversely, the absence of a student’s name herein does not necessarily mean that the person has not been awarded a Penn degree. The student’s transcript is the official record of the University.
