COMMENCEMENT
CEREMONY
A Perspective Purdue University owes a substantial debt to its medieval predecessors for its commencement ceremony and academic attire. The academic heri-
tage that evolved during the Middle Ages provided us with a teaching institution, the university; a method of measuring academic progress, degrees;
and a structure for an appropriate ceremony recognizing the student’s achievement, commencement. In June 1875, Purdue University held its first
commencement outdoors on the Oval, awarding the Bachelor of Science degree to a class of one. In 1903, commencement was moved indoors to
the newly-completed Eliza Fowler Hall. The steady growth of the size of the graduating class necessitated moving the exercises to larger and larger
facilities: the Memorial Gymnasium, the Armory, the Field House, and in 1940, to the Edward C. Elliott Hall of Music. The 244th commencement at the
West Lafayette campus is being held today for graduates who qualified for their degrees at the end of the current semester. The colorful ceremony,
enacted each year on campuses throughout the world, is the formal climax and recognition of the graduates’ years of study and preparation.
Academic Attire Graduate candidates for degrees wear a black tassel on the left side of the square Oxford cap, or mortarboard, signifying receipt of a previous degree.
At Purdue, the color of the trim on the hood identifies the areas of specialization.

2THE USE OF
ACADEMIC EMBLEMS
The Seal Seals are common to all corporate bodies and have been used since ancient times to authenticate documents. They constituted the official
signatures of emperors, bishops, and corporations. University seals evolved from those of church corporations. In Europe, the early faculties
and student nations possessed seals; in the United States, all colleges and universities have had seals since Colonial days. The current Purdue
Seal was officially adopted in 1969 and retains elements of earlier versions, which evolved beginning in 1890. The seal features a stylized
depiction of the griffin, the mythological beast with the head of an eagle and the body of a lion. In medieval heraldry, the griffin symbolized
strength. The three-part shield represents Purdue’s traditional aims: learning, discovery, and engagement. The seal combines these traditional
elements with modern simplicity of design to form one of the most distinctive of university symbols.
The University Mace The mace has an ancient history as a symbol of authority. Originally giant clubs made of iron and capable of breaking armor, maces were
used chiefly by knights. They were also often borne by a royal bodyguard to protect the king in processions. In the course of time, by the 14th
century, they assumed more ceremonial functions and lost their warlike appearance, as they began to be decorated with jewels and precious
metals. In 1649, the English House of Commons obtained a mace. In 1756, a silver mace was made for the colony of South Carolina; it is still in
use in the state capital at Columbia. In the United States House of Representatives, the mace is placed to the right of the speaker. As a symbol
of order and authority, a mace is carried before the president and other dignitaries in the platform party in commencement processions. As a
reflection of the modern vision of a truly American university, the design of the Purdue Mace embraces sweeping thrusts and counterthrusts
to create a vital energy within an otherwise clean, linear aesthetic. The University seal is located in the center of the mace-head; bounding it
are two sweeping silver wings.
The Presidential Closely allied with maces and seals as symbols of authority are the collars of office worn by many officials, including chancellors and presidents
Medallion of universities. Collars usually include a medallion inscribed with the seal of the institution and are worn over the academic gown on public
occasions, particularly at commencements. Located in the center of Purdue’s Presidential Medallion is the three-part “heraldic shield” and
griffin, the symbol which has existed throughout Purdue’s long history of University seals. The medallion, as well as the mace, was handcrafted
from sterling silver, ebony, and gold, using the centuries-old techniques of swedging, forging, hollow-forming, and silver soldering.
The Banners The banners, sometimes known as standards or gonfalons (a flag that hangs from a crosspiece or frame), originated in the medieval republics
of Italy as an ensign of state or office. They have been adopted in many universities around the world as school or institutional insignias. The
fourteen banners displayed represent the University, the Graduate School, and the twelve undergraduate colleges or schools at the West
Lafayette campus. The colors of the University, old gold and black, are joined together in a pattern common to all the banners. The bands are
the same colors as the tassels worn on the mortarboard of the college’s or school’s graduates.
Each college or school is represented on its banner by a symbol and two colored bands indicating its major academic discipline.
The Teaching Medallion The medallion identifies members of the Purdue University Teaching Academy, a dedicated and dynamic network of scholar-teachers
committed to the continual improvement of teaching and learning at Purdue University. Under the auspices of the Office of the Executive Vice
President for Academic Affairs, the Teaching Academy works with the academic schools, the Center for Instructional Excellence, and others to
enrich the educational experiences of the entire Purdue University community. The mission of the Teaching Academy is to provide leadership
and serve as a catalyst to enhance and strengthen the quality of undergraduate, graduate, and outreach teaching and learning.

Purdue’s commencement exercises have been held in many different
locations through the years, ranging from a large circus tent on the Oval
in the 1880’s to their present site in the Edward C. Elliott Hall of Music.
Commencement in the early 1930’s was held in the memorial Gymnasium,
now Haas Hall. Limited space for guest seating soon necessitated a move
to the larger facilities in the Armory.
12GUEST SPEAKERS
First Division
Jocelyn Wong is a marketing executive, who’s 24 year career has included leadership roles in the consumer packaged goods space,
a variety of retail formats, and in the fast growing on-demand delivery platform sector. She has received numerous industry awards
and prides herself on being a passionate, data obsessed Brand Builder.
Her most recent role was the Chief Customer Officer of Gopuff, a late stage-startup that delivers consumer goods in less than 30
minutes in over 650 US cities. In just under a year, the company’s valuation quadrupled to $9B. Her role consisted of building the
marketing organization, launching a holistic Brand Strategy and Campaign, and over-seeing merchandising.
Prior to Gopuff, Jocelyn was the Chief Marketing Officer at Lowe’s, a $70B home improvement retailer. For nearly 4 years, she had
responsibility over digital marketing, creative strategy and production as well as product marketing.
Her earlier experiences included a variety of roles at Safeway, Family Dollar as well as Procter and Gamble, where she began her
career as a Process Engineer before transitioning into Brand Management.
Jocelyn has a bachelor degree in Food Process Engineering from Purdue University. One of the most impactful moments in her
life was in her sophomore year when she won a school competition for “most creative use of soybeans”. This single event is what
led her down a path to pursue a career she not only loved but excelled at; marrying the technical aspect of engineering with the
Jocelyn Wong creativity of marketing to solve real world problems.
Chief Customer Officer, Gopuff
Currently, Jocelyn also serves on the Board of Directors for 2 privately held companies. She and her husband Patrick, along with
their 3 kids, Jada, Liam and Kira, currently reside in Charlotte, NC. She is a constant “dreamer” and is always exploring new areas
of interest to pursue and challenge her. She loves food (cooking and eating) as well as planning adventures around the world for
her family to enjoy.
Second Division
Richard Kuhn received his B.S. in Chemistry from SUNY at Stony Brook as well as his Ph.D. studying poliovirus. After receiving his
Ph.D. in 1986, he joined the laboratory of Dr. James Strauss at Caltech where he studied alphaviruses. He was recruited to Purdue
University in the Markey Center for Structural Biology in 1991. His research has focused on the replication and assembly of the
alphaviruses, picornaviruses, and the flaviviruses. Together with his structural biology colleagues including Michael Rossmann
(until his passing in 2019), he has been involved in many fundamental studies examining the structure and assembly of viruses,
including dengue and Zika viruses. He served as Department Head of Biological Sciences from 2005-2016 and Director of the
Bindley Biosciences Center, from 2007-2015. His current positions are the Trent and Judith Anderson Distinguished Professor of
Science and the Krenicki Family Director, Purdue Institute of Inflammation, Immunology and Infectious Disease.

Rheem Air Conditioning in Fort Smith, Arkansas; General Electric Aviation in Bangalore, India; Oerlikon Graziano Drive Systems in
Uttar Pradesh, India; and Bahrain Fiber Glass International in Mina Salman, Bahrain.
He has also been an active presence on campus, serving as a peer mentor for the Bechtel Innovation Design Center and as both the
transmission and suspension lead for the Purdue Baja Racing Team.
Tanmay was the recipient of the John M. Starkey Prize in Mechanical Engineering, the Bottomley Research Scholarship and, twice,
the Gordon Hall Mechanical Engineering Scholarship.
Tanmay has accepted to join the University of Michigan as a masters student in Mechanical Engineering this fall, and continues to
explore employment opportunities.

The main gates to the campus were given to the University by the Class of
1897 in keeping with a long-standing tradition. Facing State Street and looking
south to the ag campus beyond, they were wide enough to permit the bicycle
and buggy traffic of their youth. But with the advent of fewer horses and
more horsepower not too many years later, they were moved farther apart.
The gateways were removed from their permanent location in 1956 before
construction was begun on Stewart Center and now stand on the Memorial
Mall near John Purdue’s grave. In this photo, Heavilon Hall and the original
Eliza Fowler Hall can be seen in the background.
