Bravo! I am thrilled to be congratulating this group of graduates as the significance of successfully completing your university training is profound and must be celebrated. A traditional convocation would find you nervously anticipating the walk up the hill in gown and cap, hearing your name called as you cross the stage, and posing for pictures with your family. Graduating during a pandemic has altered this tradition but should not take away your sense of accomplishment. I urge you to share your joy and happiness of your graduation and enable your support system to mirror this pride and joy. You are the testament to the benefits of student growth and education at uLethbridge and should be proud of your learning endeavors. A huge congratulation! Noëlla Piquette, Chief Marshal and Associate Professor, Faculty of Education

We’ve been with you every step of the way — from your first school tour to your last assignment. We’ve seen you up at 7 a.m., stressing before a test, and we’ve helped you celebrate the end of a long day with a drink. Now you’re graduating, and the Coffee Company couldn’t be more proud to have accompanied you on this journey — ­­ as your cheering squad, your fueling station, the cup of comfort in your hand. Come back and visit often, and best of luck in your future endeavors! And, most importantly, never settle for crappy coffee. JT and the staff at the Campus Coffee Company

history of convocation In the Middle Ages, the church was responsible for higher education. Monasteries were the centres of learning and monks were the scholars of society. By the 12th century, secular scholars began forming communities to pursue knowledge and truth, which eventually developed into independent universities in the prominent cathedral cities of Europe, precursors of today’s universities. As universities grew, scholars wanted to honour students who successfully completed their education as well as welcome them into the select and exclusive group of scholars. The word convocation originally referred

to gatherings of the clergy of Canterbury and York, but in 1577 Oxford University used it to describe the assembly of its graduates. Ever since, students around the world have been admitted to the order of scholars in a convocation ceremony. Since its first convocation ceremony in 1968, the University of Lethbridge has been proud to recognize the academic achievements of our students, and honour individual achievements in various fields. A convocation ceremony represents a celebratory ‘rite of passage’ for our students — an opportunity to share academic accomplishments with their mentors, fellow graduates and loved ones. The ceremony begins with the national anthem and reflection. Following that the main features of convocation are a speech to the graduands by the president, a speech by the honorary degree recipient or guest speaker, and the conferral of degrees, diplomas and certificates by the chancellor.

THE UNIVERSITY SYMBOLS The University’s colours are blue and gold, drawing inspiration from the blue sky and bright sun so prominent on the southern Alberta landscape. The University Shield brings focus to the fiery sun with twisted Aztec rays. The University of Lethbridge Coat of Arms was unveiled during the University’s 45th anniversary celebrations at Fall 2012 Convocation and features the blue shield and the University’s signature sun, along with our motto, Fiat Lux. This is supported by other components such as the eagle feather, Alberta wild rose, pronghorn and miner’s lamp; all signature elements of the University.

Fiat Lux, our motto, is Latin for ‘let there be light’ and refers metaphorically to the illumination that comes from research and learning. At the University, everyone has the ability to shine and we believe it’s our job to help make that happen. The mace, carried in the academic procession by the chief marshal, was created by artist Corne Martens and given to the University in memory of former senator Virginia Mitchell. Dedicated at the fall convocation ceremony on October 1, 1988, the mace is cast in bronze and represents the institution’s authority to grant degrees, diplomas and certificates. Unique to the University of Lethbridge, one end features three elements: mortarboard, gavel and open book, symbolizing academia, the Board of Governors and the General Faculties Council. The other end features a globe surrounded by pronghorns, representing our mascot and the universality of knowledge.

ACADEMIC REGALIA

INDIGENOUS STOLE

The academic dress of the University of Lethbridge is unique to the institution. A black gown and mortarboard are worn by undergraduate and master’s students; the credential earned is represented by colours on the borders and linings of the hoods. The bachelor’s degree, certificate and diploma hoods are black lined with blue, trimmed with a twisted gold and blue cord. Master’s hoods are black lined with blue and have an exterior border of light blue satin trimmed with a twisted gold and blue cord.

It is custom in many Indigenous communities to honour graduates with a special remembrance of their accomplishments as they continue on to various milestones in their lives. To celebrate their achievements, all graduating Indigenous students in attendance are gifted with a convocation stole.

A coloured braid on the lining of the hood distinguishes the type of degree. Students receiving combined degrees wear two braids. The colours representing the degrees are as follows:

Designed by Iikaisskini (Low Horn) Indigenous Student Affairs, the stoles are royal blue with white embroidery, featuring four important symbols alongside the University of Lethbridge shield: The Buffalo acknowledges Blackfoot Territory and the importance of this animal to the Blackfoot people and to the great plains.

Arts: White

The Eagle Feather represents our First Nations graduates.

Science: Golden yellow

The Infinity Sign represents our Métis graduates.

Arts and Science: White and golden yellow

The Inukshuk represents our Inuit graduates.

Education: Light blue Fine Arts: Brown Music: Pink Health Sciences: Red and golden yellow Nursing: Red Therapeutic Recreation: Green Management: Light brown Doctor of philosophy graduands wear a royal blue gown with blue velvet facings and chevrons outlined in bright gold piping, and a blue beefeater with a gold tassel. The hoods are royal blue, lined with sapphire blue satin and a bright gold chevron. The blue velvet trim is outlined in gold piping. The stoles worn by the deans of each Faculty or School correspond generally with the colour of the braids on the lining of the undergraduate hoods of that Faculty or School. Convocation marshals wear royal blue stoles, and are selected from among the academic staff to supervise the academic procession and the presentation of graduands to the chancellor. The regalia of the chancellor, president, board of governors’ chair, and honorary degree recipients also feature blue and gold elements.

CORDS OF DISTINCTION Cords of academic distinction are worn by undergraduate students whose outstanding academic achievements merit the designation. Royal blue cords signify distinction and gold cords great distinction. Combined degrees students earning distinction or great distinction for both degrees wear two sets of cords.

PODIUM DESIGN The convocation lecterns feature the university tartan alongside a Pendleton® blanket and eagle feather shield conceptualized by Blackfoot Elder Francis First Charger. A source of warmth and comfort, blankets serve a special role in Indigenous ceremonies. As gifts, blankets allow the recipient to forever wrap themselves in a treasured reminder of heritage, community and tradition. Seven golden eagle feathers have been arranged in a circle to represent a shield. The number is significant and refers to the seven stars. The golden eagle is known for its majestic qualities, soaring high above and seeing far and wide with keen eyesight.

UNIVERSITY TARTAN The University of Lethbridge tartan was a 50th anniversary legacy project unveiled on Founders’ Day Weekend in January 2017. The tartan design is inspired by convocation and the grand accomplishment it signifies. Faculty colours are incorporated in the tartan and the colours come together with the bright sunburst against the dark blue field. A frame of red honours the name given to University Hall, Iniskim (Sacred Buffalo Stone). The tartan was registered with the Scottish Tartan Authority on August 16, 2016. A kilt, handwoven by world-renowned kilt maker Paul Henry (UK), is worn by the piper for convocation. 5


TO OUR STUDENTS,

we make a promise: A promise to do our best, so they can be their best. A promise to foster exploration, to share ideas and information, to teach but also to learn. A promise to build the buildings, acquire the technology, cultivate the partnerships, and welcome the people essential to advancing an environment that excites and ignites learning. A promise to create an environment where professors and students are colleagues and everyone grows together, an environment that recognizes the power of every student’s dream. And helps that dream come true.

At the tender age of 11, Paulette Senior joined her family in Canada, leaving her grandmother’s home in Jamaica. Adjusting to a new culture was challenging and her school teacher failed to recognize her capabilities and placed her into a basic level education class. Later, a different teacher realized she didn’t belong there, and she rejoined the regular stream. That experience left an indelible mark and kindled her interest in fairness, activism and dismantling barriers. After marrying young, Senior became a single parent a few years later and, wanting to ensure she could provide for her son, she became a full-time student at York University. Thanks to the

changes upon damage from external factors in our environment, how naturally occurring modifications impact the many critical roles of RNA, and the function of enzymes that interact with nucleic acids.

Stacey Wetmore learned early that her understanding of advanced chemistry principles were not best applied in a lab setting but rather in front of a computer, where she could also utilize her mathematical aptitude. So began an outstanding career in computational chemistry. Born and raised in Saint John, NB, Wetmore completed her undergraduate degree at Mount Allison University before earning her doctorate in computational chemistry at Dalhousie University. She came to uLethbridge in 2006 as a Canada Research Chair and quickly established the University’s own computer cluster, allowing for cutting-edge computational research.

A prolific writer, Wetmore has published more than 160 manuscripts, including more than 60 in the past five years as she earns spots in the most prestigious chemistry journals.

UNIVERSITY OF LETHBRIDGE BOOKSTORE

The University of Lethbridge Bookstore is an icon on the uLethbridge campus. As the go-to spot on campus for all the essentials that students, faculty and staff need for their day-to-day activities, the Bookstore has also become a hub for student engagement. What separates the Bookstore is that it is so much more than a retail location. It’s a landmark, a meeting spot and, over the years, has emerged as an inspirational leader for a number of important societal campaigns and student and community issues. One such campaign is the annual Chinook Regional Hospital Foundation Christmas Tree Festival and Gala. The Bookstore first began its participation in 2004 and has been a strong supporter of the annual initiative ever since. The Bookstore

routinely crafts an aesthetically beautiful and well-themed tree, often referred to as the Tree of Knowledge. The trees are renowned for their striking visual beauty and decorated with more than 100 books every year. In addition to the small library found on the tree, the successful bidder will find gift certificates for services, activities and events taking place at and put on by the University. It is a proud representation and symbol of engagement for uLethbridge as a valuable community partner and source of educational and research enlightenment for the southern Alberta region. The Bookstore staff also puts great effort into creating a theme of expression for each tree, capturing the needs of our community. These themes have included Canada’s 150th anniversary, (books written

by Canadian authors), the Pride Tree (LGBQT+ themed literature), the University’s 50th anniversary and Letters from the Past. In 2016, Bookstore staff obtained 1,500 vintage air mail envelopes and stationery. Inspired by this, they recruited over 1,000 students from local schools to write letters of well wishes which were distributed by volunteers to over 1,000 patients at the Chinook Regional Hospital and Green Acres Foundation at Christmas time. Since 2009, over $26,400 has been raised for the Chinook Regional Hospital Foundation from the auctioning of the Bookstore trees. There have also been multiple years when tree buyers have donated the Tree of Knowledge to local schools, further spreading knowledge and expanding educational opportunities throughout the region.
