President’s Message
Y Dear Graduate, On behalf of OHSU’s faculty and staff, I would like to offer my congratulations on the accomplishments that have brought you to this moment and extend my warmest wishes for your continued success as you move forward in your chosen field. Over the years, OHSU has evolved and adapted and grown in size and complexity. But what was true in 1887 when OHSU began is still true today: you, the students, are the reason we are all here. I want to thank you for your hard work and the sacrifices you and your families have made to arrive at this day. Your accomplishments are many, but they are only a small part of what you will be able to achieve as you apply the knowledge you have gained. As an OHSU graduate, you join a dedicated and elite community, unified in its commitment to service and to bettering human health worldwide. This community welcomes you as a valued member. Your accomplishments are a sense of pride and your future a source of hope. Thank you and congratulations. Best wishes for your continued success.

The University Mace
Y Historically, the University mace is a symbol of authority dating from medieval times in England, when knights carried them during processions with their kings. As the tradition grew, the mace became a ceremonial symbol of peaceful leadership, and maces were embellished with jewels and metals. Today, ceremonial maces are used by governing bodies worldwide, including the U.S. House of Representatives and the British Parliament. As an ancient symbol of authority, it reminds us that universities are custodians both of the enduring traditions of learning and of the power they bestow upon those who come to learn. The mace symbolizes the University’s governing authority and is present only when the president and board of directors are in attendance. It signifies the ceremonial proceedings have official sanction and is carried by President Robertson. The OHSU mace is 72 inches in length and includes the institutional logo in its finial, and bears the inscription: Scientia Medica Continuet. Those words (medicine and science, a continuum) have been central to OHSU’s spirit and focus since 1887.
Gonfalon
Y The gonfalon is a long banner that is suspended from a crossbar. The name derives from medieval Italy, where “gonfaloni” was the name given to community meetings in Florence. Each neighborhood had its own flag and coat of arms and the gonfalon eventually came to be associated with the flag. At Oregon Health & Science University, each of the 4 schools and college is represented by a gonfalon and the “gonfalonier” – the carrier of the banner – precede each school or college during the processional.
Academic Hooding
Y The academic hood has its origins in the Middle Ages as a part of ecclesiastic rather than civilian dress. Begging friars wore the hood, or tippet, over the shoulders and also used it as a head covering in inclement weather. In the late 1800s, the hoods with identifiable regalia became part of academic dress in conjunction with the cap and gown. The American Intercollegiate Commission standardized academic regalia in 1895, and those standards remain essentially unchanged to the present.
29
The hood is made of the same material as the gown. The inner satin lining of the hood represents the colors of the university that confers the degree. OHSU colors are light blue, dark green and white. The outside velvet border indicates the academic discipline – green trimmed for master degrees, salmon for public health, lavender for dentistry, apricot for nursing, olive green for pharmacy, drab for business administration, golden yellow for science, green for medicine and dark blue for philosophy. The hood is awarded by the faculty of the school upon completion of the required course of study. Members of the faculty are selected each year by the graduates for the honor of awarding this insignia of academic achievement. These hoods can be displayed by their recipients at academic ceremonies throughout their lifetimes.
The University
Y
30
OHSU is the state’s only health and research university. It also is Oregon’s only academic health center, which means it has the multifaceted responsibility of providing healing, teaching and discovery. It is Portland’s largest employer with more than 15,000 employees, and its size contributes to its ability to provide many services and community support activities not found anywhere else in the state. The University is a conduit for learning for more than 2,800 students. Additionally, OHSU educates people through joint programs with other universities, provides training to interns, residents and fellows in postgraduate medical and research training, and delivers continuing education to thousands of health care professionals each year. It is the only place in Oregon that grants doctoral degrees in medicine, dentistry and nursing. As Oregon’s primary educator of health professionals, OHSU is creating and developing new partnerships and programs to expand medical, dental and nursing education to other communities in Oregon, and to boost the number of students being taught. The Collaborative Life Sciences Building has brought together elements of OHSU, Oregon State University and Portland State University under one roof with lecture halls, classrooms, labs and specialty research centers. Patients from every county in Oregon are cared for at OHSU, and they often receive specialized services not available anywhere else in the state. Without these services many Oregonians would have to travel out of the region to have their complex medical needs met. Together, the dental and medical clinics offered by OHSU provide an interdisciplinary network of expertise that results in care to more than 258,000 patients each year.
OHSU attracts leading scientists and top students who share the drive to explore the unknown. It also attracts money for research — $376 million in the past year — to fund promising studies that often lead to discoveries and add to the body of knowledge about prevention, detection and the treatment of disease. OHSU has more than 1,100 principal investigators working on nearly 3,000 active research projects. Like other academic health centers, OHSU takes a leadership role in contributing to solutions involving the health of the state and the nation. OHSU investigates problems such as access to health care, care for the uninsured, health care transparency, ethics in health care, the health care workforce shortage, increased health care needs for the elderly, the use of technology in health care, compliance, patient privacy and much more. In many ways, OHSU reaches every corner of the state with more than 200 active outreach and public service programs to address geographical, cultural and economic challenges throughout Oregon. Whether it’s improving access to health care for vulnerable and underserved populations, bringing educational programs to people where they live, expanding science education opportunities for school-age children or volunteering staff time and expertise, no other Oregon institution touches the lives of so many. 31
