He was known to make tough decisions and to stand in the minority when he disagreed. Among the highlights during his tenure were the increased library funding he pushed for, the creation of the Regents Distinguished Teaching Award and the campaign to raise scholarship funds. Beyond serving in distinguished positions within Crowe & Dunlevy, Mr. Stringer is an active representative of the law within the state. He has served as President of the Young Lawyers Conference of Oklahoma County (1965); Treasurer of the Oklahoma Bar Association (1967); President of the Lawyers Club of Oklahoma City (1979), VicePresident of the Oklahoma Association of Defense Counsel (1979-1980); Fellow of the Defense Research Institute; Fellow of the Oklahoma Bar Association; Fellow of the American Bar Association; Member of the Advisory Research Committee and Fellow of the American Bar Foundation (1996-present). His service to OSU is also most impressive.

He received the Oklahoma State University Distinguished Alumnus Award in 1979; the College of Arts and Sciences Distinguished Alumni Award in 1994; and the Department of Political Science Outstanding Alumni Award in 1994. He was honored at L.E. “Dean” Stringer Day (March 23, 1994) by the Student Government Association of OSU.

Thomas 47 The list of fall 2014 degree candidates was prepared before final grades were reported, and inclusion herein does not constitute evidence of graduation. Final action to ensure an accurate listing of names of all persons qualified for degrees could not be compiled before this program went to print. The listing of a name in this program should not be construed as an indication that the person will in fact receive a fall 2014 degree from Oklahoma State University at this commencement. Conversely, the absence of a student’s name from this list does not necessarily mean the person will not be awarded a degree. Final certification of degree and academic distinction will be made by the Colleges and the Registrar after candidates have completed all degree requirements. Graduation with Distinction The following final grade-point-average distinctions are determined at degree completion and will appear on undergraduate diplomas and transcripts: Summa cum laude Magna cum laude Cum laude 3.90-4.00 3.80-3.89 3.70-3.79 Degree Abbreviations: BA BAR BEN BFA BLA BM BS BSAE BSAG BSBA BSBE BSCH BSCV BSCP BSEE BSET BHS BSIE BSME BUS DVM MA MAG MAT MBA MFA MM MS EdS EdD PhD 48 Bachelor of Arts Bachelor of Architecture Bachelor of Engineering Bachelor of Fine Arts Bachelor of Landscape Architecture Bachelor of Music Bachelor of Science Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources Bachelor of Science in Business Administration Bachelor of Science in Biosystems Engineering Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology Bachelor of Science in Human Sciences Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering and Management Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering Bachelor of University Studies Doctor of Veterinary Medicine Master of Arts Master of Agriculture Master of Athletic Training Master of Business Administration Master of Fine Arts Master of Music Master of Science Specialist in Education Doctor of Education Doctor of Philosophy Additional Spring 2014 Degree Recipients OSU spring and summer degree candidates are invited to participate in the OSU spring commencement ceremony, and their names are listed in the spring commencement book. However, because the spring commencement book goes to print shortly after April 1, it is not possible to include candidates who apply for graduation after that date. This section recognizes these degree recipients, some of whom will participate in today’s ceremony.

During the Middle Ages, scholars at the earliest English and European universities wore wool or fur garments to stay warm in the drafty, stone buildings that were poorly heated. Most of the scholars were also monks or priests, and as such had the hair shaved from the crowns of their heads in the distinctive clerical tonsure. Most wore cloaks that included a hood that could be pulled up to keep their heads warm. The academic gowns and hoods were adapted from both secular and clerical garments of the time, and the hood was chosen by the early scholars to indicate by color, trim or binding the degree held by the wearer. The style of academic dress most frequently worn in the United States dates back to colonial times, although it was not formally adopted until near the end of the 19th Century, when it was chosen as appropriate attire by the Intercollegiate Commission during a meeting in New York. It has remained the general standard in America since, although some variations occur at individual institutions. In the United States, black is the traditional color for academic gowns, although some institutions allow holders of doctoral degrees to wear robes in the university’s colors. The sleeves of the robes vary, depending on the degree held by the wearer. The bachelor’s robe has long, pointed sleeves. The master’s robe has sleeves that are oblong and closed at the ends, with slits through which the arms may be extended. The doctoral robe has a full sleeve with a velvet facing on the front and at the neck, and three velvet bars on each sleeve. The velvet may be black or of a color that symbolizes the degree held by the wearer. The head covering most commonly used in the United States is the square, tasseled “mortarboard.” Some American universities, however, use berets, and in other countries a variety of styles of head coverings is worn with academic regalia. The tassel is usually black and is worn over the left front quarter of the mortarboard. Holders of doctoral degrees may wear gold tassels. The hood is the most distinctive feature of American academic dress, which through color and design may indicate the wearer’s degree and the institution at which that degree was earned. Hoods are lined with the colors of the institution that awards the degree, and may be faced with the color designating the degree awarded. Hoods vary in length. The bachelor’s hood is about three feet long, the master’s slightly longer and the doctoral version is longer still and is decorated with broad color panels. Candidates for advanced or professional degrees wear hoods symbolic of the degree. The color of the trim of the hood and the sleeve chevrons and panels of the academic gown are distinctive of the degree as follows: Degree: Gown: Hood: Doctor of Philosophy Black Velvet Panels Blue Velvet Collar and Sleeve Chevrons Doctor of Education Light Blue Velvet Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine Kelly Green Velvet Light Blue Collar Panels and Sleeve Chevrons Kelly Green Velvet Collar Panels and Sleeve Chevrons Doctor of Veterinary Medicine Steel Gray Panels Steel Gray Collar and Sleeve Chevrons Master of Arts White Collar Master of Science Golden Yellow Collar The colors of Oklahoma State University are embodied in the lining of the hood (orange and black chevron). The colors of the hoods of faculty and guests are those of the institution conferring the degree. In addition to the academic regalia described above, some students wear cords, sashes, ribbons, and other symbols of heritage or achievement in academics, service, and leadership. Portions of the proceeding were adapted from the commencement program of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. 61 Commencement Committee Celeste Campbell, University Registrar, Chair Daniel Alexander, Physical Plant Services Barbara Bremer, Spears School of Business Steve Damron, College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources Robert Davis, College of Education Camille Deyong, College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology Katie Hoipkemier, Center for Veterinary Health Sciences Debbie Lane, Office of the System CEO/President Amy Martindale, College of Arts and Sciences Rosslyn Orcutt, Graduate College Kristi Thrift Seuhs, College of Human Sciences Steve Stevenson, Environmental Health and Safety Special thanks to the volunteers from the OSU Emeriti Association for their assistance in distributing the Fall 2014 Commencement program. 62
