2 Chancellor Philip L. Dubois Greetings from the Chancellor To Our Graduates: Commencement marks a major transition for graduates. This is the culmination of your transformative journey here at UNC Charlotte. You are not the same person you were when you attended your first class or stepped through the doors of the Popp Martin Student Union or the J. Murrey Atkins Library for the first time. In your time on campus, your physical appearance may have changed. Lively classroom discussions and topics of study may have influenced your views on social, cultural, and political issues. You have had opportunities to interact with individuals from other cultures and to engage in the greater Charlotte community. You also have witnessed important developments in the identity of this institution that will strengthen its future and add to the value of your degree. What began as the Charlotte Center in 1946, humbly serving returning WWII veterans, has transformed into North Carolina s urban research university and has become one of the great success stories in American higher education. Your alma mater will continue to evolve, and we hope you always will fondly recall your days here. As we close out the academic year, I am pleased to report that it was historic in many ways: UNC Charlotte is firmly cementing its place among the top echelon of universities in the southeast region as evidenced by our record enrollment this year with 29,710 students, including 24,387 undergraduates. We have grown 43% over the past 14 years and are now the third-largest campus overall within the 17-campus UNC System, with the second largest number of undergraduates. The freshmen and transfer students who joined us this year continued to strengthen the already stellar academic credentials and diversity of our student body. One of the exciting side effects of our continued enrollment growth is the steady stream of construction and renovation projects we have going on around campus. Since 2005, $1.2 billion has been invested in capital projects to expand academic programs, improve student life, and enhance Charlotte 49er athletics. We recently completed construction of the Gage Undergraduate Admissions Center, we have begun clearing the land for construction of a new science facility and a UNC Charlotte Marriott Hotel and Conference Center, and we are beyond excited for the completion of the University Recreation Center this fall. UNC Charlotte and 49er athletics welcomed Will Healy as the new head football coach. Healy, who is driven by the phrase Everything you do, do it with passion, energy and enthusiasm, has been charged with lifting our young, energetic, and enthusiastic football program to greater heights. During his three-year stint as head coach at Austin Peay State University, he engineered one of the greatest turnarounds in college football history. "Exponential: The Campaign for UNC Charlotte," the largest private fundraising campaign in the University's history, has raised $170 million toward our $200 million goal. "Exponential" is advancing UNC Charlotte by providing scholarships to students and support for faculty, and by reaffirming our position as an economic engine for the Charlotte region. This campaign offers all of us alumni, business leaders, and the University community an opportunity to shape a future that is even more exciting than our past. I hope you will continue to grow in pride for your alma mater as the years go by and will sense that you have had a part in our success. We are happy to share this important day with you. I speak for all UNC Charlotte administrators, faculty, and staff when I offer congratulations to each of our new graduates and to your steadfast family members and friends who might have thought this day would never come. Graduates, let today commence a new relationship with UNC Charlotte in which you embrace your identity as a member of our alumni network. Wherever you go, you will always be a 49er! Cordially, Philip L. Dubois Chancellor 2

3 To Our Guests To help ensure that the ceremony is conducted in a dignified manner, family members and others attending are asked to remain in their seats during the ceremony. Aisles must be kept clear, and videography and still photography are not allowed at the railings or on the arena floor. Only graduates, faculty, authorized staff, and news media will be allowed on the floor before and during the ceremony. A DVD will be produced by GradImages showing segments of the commencement ceremony and every graduate being congratulated. GradImages will also produce still photographs of each graduate. GradImages will contact all graduates concerning purchase of the DVD and photographs. Graduates may check their UNC Charlotte account the Tuesday following Commencement to see digital photographic proofs. Further information is available online at Names are meant to be heard as graduates walk across the stage. We ask guests to be kind and courteous when you hear your graduate's name. Please be respectful with applause so that all names can be heard at Commencement. Procession The University Marshal will lead the procession, followed by the degree candidates, faculty, department chairs, platform party, and the Chancellor. The Mace The mace, carried by the University Marshal, is an ancient symbol of authority dating to 14th-century Europe. The UNC Charlotte mace includes symbols relating to the institution s history and its setting in North Carolina and Mecklenburg County. The base is formed of a gold pine cone, with the lower portion of the staff carved of native walnut. The upper portion of the staff is formed in silver. Crowning the mace is a hornet s nest in gold plate which sits on a large dogwood bloom. The mace was crafted by Barry Merritt of the Penland School of Crafts. Academic Regalia The gowns, hoods, and tassels worn in an academic ceremony designate the level of the degree, the academic discipline in which the degree was awarded, and the institution from which the degree was received. Medallions may indicate that the wearers have earned recognition for academic honors or that they are members of one or more student organizations. Styles of gowns may vary, but the doctoral gown is generally marked by velvet panels down the front, around the neck, and across the sleeves. Tassels may be black for any degree or in the color of the discipline in which the degree was awarded. Doctors and governing officials of institutions may wear tassels of gold metallic thread. The hood identifies the level of the degree, the discipline in which it was given, and the institution which awarded it. The master s hood is three and one-half feet long, and the doctor s hood is four feet long. The velvet trim on the hood is three inches wide for the master's and five inches for the doctor's. The design of the hood and color of its lining designate the discipline in which the degree was awarded. The University of North Carolina at Charlotte is committed to providing equal educational and employment opportunities for all members of the University community and for all those seeking to join the University community. In case of an emergency, find the nearest campus police officer or commencement personnel. 3

4 UNC Charlotte Board of Trustees Joe Price '83, has served as chair of the UNC Charlotte Board of Trustees since July He has been a member of the board since 2007 and previously served as vice chair and chair of two Board committees. Price also serves on the Board of Advisors for the Belk College of Business. As an alumnus whose connection to the University runs deep, Price knows the value of UNC Charlotte's past and future commitment to the region. Joe L. Price Our start as the Charlotte Center, which educated veterans returning from World War II, was a humble beginning. Today UNC Charlotte is North Carolina's urban research University, and amazing things are happening all across this dynamic, thousand-acre campus and our vibrant uptown campus, Price says. We award more than 7,200 degrees each year to graduates who go on to shape all sectors of Charlotte s economy. While University alumni find their successes across the globe, the majority of them stay here in the Charlotte region, Price notes. Graduates in every field among them teaching, computer and data sciences, accounting and finance, health-related fields, engineering, and the liberal and performing arts will make contributions to the region s economic, social, and cultural vitality. Price is currently a partner at Falfurrias Capital Partners, a private equity firm. He is a finance executive who held many positions with Bank of America for nearly 20 years, including chief financial officer, global corporate and investment banking risk management executive, president of Consumer and Small Business Banking, and a member of the bank s executive management team. Prior to joining Bank of America in 1993, he was affiliated with Price Waterhouse and served as a member of the Financial Institutions National Industry Group. Price serves as chair of the Board of Directors of Habitat for Humanity's worldwide operations and is active with Habitat for Humanity of Charlotte and the UNC Charlotte student chapter of Habitat for Humanity. He also serves as a chair and member of the boards of several service providers to the financial services industry. Price and his wife, Christine, for whom UNC Charlotte s Christine F. Price Center for Counseling and Psychological Services is named, reside in Charlotte and have two grown daughters and a son. The UNC Charlotte Board of Trustees also includes Michael L. Wilson, Vice Chair; Susan R. DeVore, Secretary; Dennis N. Bunker III; Sharon Allred Decker; Theresa J. Drew; Dhiaa Jamil; J. Brett Keeter; Fred W. Klein, Jr.; Mary Ann Rouse; Laura A. Schulte; Teross W. Young, Jr.; and Chandler A. Crean, Student Body President. The University Logo UNC Charlotte's logo has become one of the Charlotte region's most distinctive insignia. It symbolizes the University's links to the UNC System, the Charlotte metropolitan region, and the discipline of learning. The logo is suggestive of a crown, reminiscent of Queen Charlotte, for whom the city of Charlotte is named. The crown also can be interpreted as a lamp of learning, a burning bush, an open book, the flowering of a plant or an individual, or a graduate in cap and gown. The letters UNC refer to the University of North Carolina, which opened in 1795 as the nation's first public university. The word Charlotte not only refers to the city but also to the surrounding metropolitan region. 4

5 UNC Charlotte Bell The UNC Charlotte Bell, which for many years hung in the belfry of the old Elizabeth School at East Fifth Street and Travis Avenue in Charlotte, was given to Charlotte College in 1960 to be rung on ceremonial occasions. It has been rung on special occasions such as March 2, 1965, when Charlotte College became the fourth branch of the University of North Carolina System and on August 11, 2010, to celebrate clearing the final hurdle to field UNC Charlotte's football team. Student Commencement Bell Ringers The ringing of the UNC Charlotte Bell at Commencement is an honorable tradition that recognizes an outstanding student leader who has demonstrated exemplary 49er spirit. The student leaders chosen to ring the bell for the Spring 2019 Commencement Ceremonies are Sreevidhya Balasubramanian (Friday afternoon), Megan V. Turnbull (Saturday morning), and Maria P. Garcia (Saturday afternoon). Student Commencement Speakers Greetings from the Spring 2019 graduating class will be given by Hillary J. Pietrucci (Friday afternoon), Mohran Al Jurdi (Saturday morning), and Samuel J. Adams (Saturday afternoon). They were chosen as Student Commencement Speakers through a competitive process. All graduating seniors are invited to submit applications and speeches for this honor. The Commencement Speaker Selection Committee consists of faculty, staff, and student representatives. All speaker candidates must present their speeches to the selection committee. To be selected, a candidate must be a graduating student of high academic achievement and demonstrate excellent character through leadership, service, and school spirit. The selected candidates represent their peers in an articulate and meaningful way by reflecting on their experiences and education at UNC Charlotte. History of the University UNC Charlotte was one of a generation of institutions founded in metropolitan areas following World War II. Created as the Charlotte Center, the institution opened on September 23, It offered evening classes to an initial class of 278 freshmen and sophomores in the facilities of Charlotte's Central High School. In 1949, the city's pioneering business and civic leaders, aware of the region s unmet need for a public institution of higher This 1961 photo shows the first two buildings on the Charlotte College education, moved to have the Charlotte Center taken campus.

By 1961, the firmly established Charlotte College was experiencing rapid growth that resulted in the establishment of a campus of its own. In the same year, Charlotte College leaders moved its burgeoning student population into the first two buildings on what would become a 1,000-acre campus ten miles from downtown Charlotte. In 1963, the North Carolina legislature approved bills making Charlotte College a four-year, state-supported institution. In 1965, the legislature passed bills designating the College the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, the fourth campus of the consolidated state system. Expansion continued as the University began offering master s degrees in In 1992, UNC Charlotte received authorization for its first doctoral programs. Today, UNC Charlotte is the state s urban research institution and the system's third largest public university with nearly 30,000 students enrolled in 75 bachelor's, 64 master's and 24 doctoral degree programs. 5

8 Explanation of Honors University Honors Program: The University Honors Program (UHP) is an interdisciplinary honors curriculum that complements any major. Students in the program strive to broaden their perspectives while developing as scholar-citizens. The program consists of a core academic curriculum, honors elective courses, a senior capstone project, and community engagement. To graduate with University Honors, a student must: complete all program requirements; maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average and a 3.2 grade point average in honors courses; and receive a senior project grade of "A." Department/College Honors: To qualify for graduation with honors recognition in a department or college honors program, a student must: meet the grade point averages required (cumulative, in the department/college, and in honors courses); complete an honors capstone thesis or project and receive an "A" for that course; complete any additional requirements specified by the program; and be recommended by the program's honors committee for graduation with honors. Dual Honors: Students must complete requirements in both UHP and a department/college honors program. Merit Scholars Programs: Albert Scholars, Crown Scholars, Levine Scholars, and Martin Scholars are recipients of major four-year merit scholarships funded by University donors. Students must participate in the program and meet all scholarship conditions. Graduation with Distinction: Undergraduate degrees are awarded Summa when the graduate s cumulative grade point average is 3.9 to 4.0, Magna when the grade point average is 3.7 or above but less than 3.9, and when the grade point average is 3.4 or above but less than 3.7. To be eligible to graduate with distinction, a student must have a grade point average computed on at least 48 semester hours of credit completed in residence at UNC Charlotte. Honor cord colors are green/white for Summa graduates, white for Magna graduates, and green for graduates. The commencement program must be prepared in advance. Therefore, notations for honors are based upon student achievements as of the preceding term and are tentative. Final determination of graduation with honors is made upon completion of the student s final term. Dean W. Colvard, First Chancellor ( ) In April 1966, Dr. Dean W. Colvard became the first chancellor of The University of North Carolina at Charlotte. During his 12-year tenure, he presided over a period of rapid campus growth and development. Under his leadership, the institution was organized into colleges, residence halls were built, graduate work was initiated, and long-range planning started. His accomplishments include helping to create the University Research Park and the University s Urban Institute, whose mission is to seek solutions to the social, economic, and environmental challenges facing Charlotte and its urban communities. Colvard joined the University from the presidency of Mississippi State University, and he also served as a dean at North Carolina State University. Following his retirement in December 1978, Colvard helped complete Charlotte s Discovery Place Museum and was the founding board chair of the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics. He also wrote books about his experience at NC State, Mississippi State, and UNC Charlotte. In 2001, Colvard received the UNC Charlotte Alumni Association s Alumnus by Choice Award, and in 2004, he received the Echo Foundation s Award Against Indifference. Colvard died in June

Suclupe Lisa S. Walker Alison M. Walsh Lucian D. Wilhelm Leeisha D. Williams James H. Woodward, Building for the Future Dr. James H. Woodward became UNC Charlotte s third chancellor in 1989, immediately establishing himself as one of the leading executives of the Charlotte metropolitan region. A U.S. Air Force veteran, he worked in private industry and taught at NC State University, the U.S. Air Force Academy, and the University of Alabama at Birmingham, where he was a senior vice president for academic affairs, prior to coming to UNC Charlotte. Under his leadership, UNC Charlotte launched ambitious plans for both physical and intellectual growth. Woodward built strong support among the region s corporate and political leaders, obtained approval to expand the University s mission to include doctoral programs, and raised the University to doctoral/ research intensive status. He established UNC Charlotte Uptown to serve students in the central business district. An engineer, Woodward generated support to build the James H. Barnhardt Student Activity Center and the Irwin Belk Track and Field Center, obtained state funding for doubling the size of Atkins Library, and was instrumental in garnering public support to pass a $3.1 billion statewide bond referendum that enabled UNC Charlotte to construct or renovate nearly a dozen buildings. He retired in Woodward has received numerous honors, including the naming of the science and technology building in 2005 as James H. and Martha H. Woodward Hall in recognition of his 16 years of service. In May 2011, UNC Charlotte awarded him an honorary degree, Doctor of Public Service. Woodward received the UNC Charlotte Alumni Association s Alumnus by Choice Award in In November 2017, he was awarded the North Carolina Award for Public Service, the highest award a civilian can receive from the Governor. 22

24 UNC Board of Governors Award for Excellence in Teaching Dr. Tony L. Schmitz Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Science Dr. Tony L. Schmitz, Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Science, invests significant time in his students both in and outside of the classroom. He has created an engaging environment for them to participate in collaborative learning and to work as a team to solve challenging, openended problems. For his efforts, Schmitz is the 2019 recipient of the UNC Board of Governors Award for Excellence in Teaching. The Board of Governors Award for Excellence in Teaching was established in 1994 to underscore the importance of teaching and to encourage, identify, recognize, reward, and support good teaching within the University. This award is given annually to a tenured faculty member from each UNC campus. Winners must have taught at their present institutions for at least seven years. The 17 recipients were nominated by individual campus committees and selected by the Board of Governors Committee on Personnel and Tenure. Each award winner will receive a commemorative bronze medallion and a $12,500 cash prize. During Schmitz's seven years at UNC Charlotte, he has taught 10 different courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels. He said his role is to train decision makers, not problem solvers. A shining example of his selfdescribed, innovative pedagogy is a junior-level design course in which he explains to students: Design requires creativity, and there is not just one correct answer. In 2014, Schmitz became associate chair for graduate programs, and he began revising the Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Science Department s master s degree non-thesis option. Department Chair Scott Smith said that as a result of Schmitz s leadership, the department experienced almost a 70 percent increase in graduate enrollment, which was a testament to Tony s innovative approach to graduate education and to his ability to inspire graduate students. Among Schmitz s other numerous teaching and research awards are the 2017 inaugural North American Manufacturing Research Institution of the Society of Manufacturing Engineers (NAMRI-SME) David Dornfeld Manufacturing Vision Award; UNC Charlotte s 2013 William States Lee College of Engineering Undergraduate Award in Teaching Excellence; and the 2010 NAMRI-SME Outstanding Paper. This past fall, Schmitz was named the recipient of UNC Charlotte s top teaching award, the Bank of America Award for Teaching Excellence. Known as the pigskin professor, Schmitz developed an Emmy-winning video series in collaboration with NBC Learn, the National Football League, and the National Science Foundation called The Science of NFL Football. Prior to joining UNC Charlotte, Schmitz was a member of the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Florida. A graduate of Temple University with a bachelor s degree in mechanical engineering, Schmitz completed a master s degree and Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from the University of Florida. 24

Todd...Charlotte History of the Alma Mater Creation of UNC Charlotte s Alma Mater is rooted deep in the University s history. It is part of the Academic Festival March that was composed for UNC Charlotte by James Helme Sutcliffe, a Charlotte composer and music critic who lived in Germany at the time. Dr. Loy Witherspoon, professor of religious studies, commissioned the march in 1965 after he learned Charlotte College would become a campus of the consolidated UNC system. The march was initially performed in 1967 for the installation of Dean W. Colvard as UNC Charlotte s first chancellor. Afterward, it was performed as a recessional at every commencement held during Chancellor Colvard s tenure. UNC Charlotte founder Bonnie Cone, upon hearing the march, remarked, I can hear an alma mater in it, referring to a hymn-like final refrain. Dr. Robert Rieke, a professor of history, also heard an alma mater in the march. During a 1990 trip to Germany, Rieke visited march composer Sutcliffe, where he picked up a recording of the march. Rieke began writing words to fit the final refrain. On Christmas Eve 1991, Rieke sent Bonnie Cone the words and music as a Christmas present to her and the University, from which he had retired a year earlier. Chancellor James H. Woodward approved Rieke s composition as the University s Alma Mater in April It was sung for the first time at the following May commencement and has been performed at every commencement since. 37

UNC Charlotte, which began as an off-campus center of the University of North Carolina, would have died in 1949 had Bonnie Cone and her supporters not convinced the N.C. Legislature that Charlotte needed a permanent institution of higher learning. Charlotte College was established that year. It is fortuitous that the University campus is located on N.C. Highway 49 and that Charlotte has a rich gold mining history. A bronze statue of the 49er Gold Miner sits in the Cato College of Education and College of Health and Human Services Plaza. The statue recalls the region s history as a gold mining center and symbolizes the pioneering spirit and determination that has led to UNC Charlotte s dramatic growth. 47
