The Latin text quoted above has introduced <strong>Bowdoin</strong>’s <strong>Commencement</strong> Program since August 21, 1822.<br />

The names of the 24 graduates of the Class of 1822 were, for the most part, also translated into Latin for the program.<br />

In the early years of the <strong>College</strong>, each graduating senior was required to deliver a <strong>Commencement</strong> “part,” an oration on<br />

ancient or modern topics, which was frequently given in one of the classical languages, Latin, Greek, or Hebrew.<br />

The final Latin oration was given in 1893, but the tradition of Latin survives in the language used to dedicate the<br />

<strong>Commencement</strong> Exercises and to confer the bachelor of arts degree. The translation below was provided by Barbara Weiden<br />

Boyd, Henry Winkley Professor of Latin and Greek.<br />

May it be good, felicitous, and well-omened:<br />

[an ancient Roman formula used at the outset of a ritual to ensure its success]<br />

To John Baldacci, esteemed Governor;<br />

to the Representatives and Senators<br />

who personally preside over the arts and letters for the State of Maine;<br />

and to the honorable and respected Trustees of <strong>Bowdoin</strong> <strong>College</strong>;<br />

to Barry Mills, distinguished President;<br />

to the entire academic senate; to the venerable religious leaders;<br />

in short, to all patrons of the human race everywhere,<br />

the young people hereby initiated into the arts and letters<br />

most humbly dedicate these exercises.<br />

Held in a gathering of <strong>Bowdoin</strong> <strong>College</strong>, in Brunswick, in the State of Maine,<br />

on the ninth day before the Kalends of June, in the 2008th year of our well-being<br />

and in the 232nd year of the authority of the United States of America.


DEGREES<br />

This ancient formula is used by the President in conferring degrees:<br />

Candidati pro gradu baccalaureali, assurgite.<br />

Vir honorande, hosce iuvenes, quos censeo idoneos primum ad gradum<br />

in artibus, nunc tibi offero, ut a te instructus, eos ad gradum istum admittam.<br />

Placetne? (Placet.)<br />

Pro auctoritate mihi commissa, admitto vos ad primum gradum in<br />

artibus, et dono et concedo omnia iura, privilegia, honores atque dignitates,<br />

ad gradum istum pertinentia.<br />

In cuius testimonium hasce membranas litteris scriptas accipite.<br />

Candidates for the Baccalaureate degrees will rise.<br />

(To the Chair of the Board of Trustees) Honored sir, these young<br />

people whom I deem worthy of the first degree in Arts, I now present to<br />

you, that, if you so direct, I may admit them to that degree. Is such your<br />

will? (It is.)<br />

(To the Candidates) By virtue of the authority vested in me,<br />

I now admit you to the first degree in Arts and do grant and confer<br />

upon you all the rights, privileges, honors, and dignities pertaining to<br />

that degree.<br />

In witness whereof, receive these diplomas.<br />

NOTE: The Baccalaureate degrees are awarded individually, and the graduating class<br />

requests that there be no applause until the last degree is conferred.<br />

At the <strong>Commencement</strong> Exercises, <strong>Bowdoin</strong> displays the <strong>College</strong> flag and the flags<br />

of the United States of America, the State of Maine, and the home or dual-citizenship<br />

countries or territories of graduating students—in 2008, Barbados, Canada, France,<br />

Germany, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, India, Ireland, Italy, Japan,<br />

Lebanon, Malaysia, Monaco, Mexico, Nepal, Pakistan, People’s Republic of China,<br />

Republic of Korea, Romania, Republic of Singapore, Spain, Thailand, Turkey, United<br />

Arab Emirates, and United Kingdom.

HONORANDS OF THE 2008 COMMENCEMENT<br />

Peter Buck ’52<br />

Doctor of Humane Letters (L.H.D.)<br />

Peter Buck is a nuclear physicist and philanthropist who is perhaps best known as the co-founder<br />

of the Subway franchise restaurant chain. A native of South Portland, Maine, he earned master’s<br />

and doctoral degrees in physics at Columbia University. From 1957 to 1978 he held positions as a<br />

nuclear physicist with several companies. In 1965 he made entrepreneurial history when he loaned a<br />

seventeen-year-old family friend $1,000 to open the first Subway Sandwiches and Salads Shop. This<br />

endeavor grew to two stores the next year, sixteen shops by 1973, and individual franchise sales by<br />

the mid-1970s. By January 2008 there were 28,773 Subway restaurants in eighty-six countries. He<br />

established a foundation devoted to enhancing the quality of life in communities in North and South<br />

America, as well as an endowment to support cancer research programs. He has a particular interest in<br />

the National Museum of Natural History of the Smithsonian Institution, and the Peter Buck Chair in<br />

Human Origins there fosters scientific research in paleoanthropology.<br />

Yvon Chouinard<br />

Doctor of Humane Letters (L.H.D.)<br />

Yvon Chouinard is the founder, president, and CEO of Patagonia, Inc., a leader in the field of<br />

outdoor clothing and gear. A native of Lisbon, Maine, he is a pioneering climber and manufacturer<br />

of climbing equipment who participated in a number of first ascents, including the North American<br />

Wall on El Capitan in Yosemite without the use of fixed ropes. His book Climbing Ice (1978) and<br />

his climbing tools are credited with starting the modern sport of ice climbing. Launched in 1972,<br />

Patagonia reflects Chouinard’s environmental and social activism. The company continually seeks<br />

ways to minimize the environmental impacts associated with the manufacture, packaging, use, and<br />

discard of its products. In 2001 he co-founded One Percent for the Planet to support grassroots<br />

organizations committed to environmental protection. He is the author of Let My People Go Surfing:<br />

The Education of a Reluctant Businessman (2005), which outlines Patagonia’s business philosophy of<br />

encouraging creativity and healthy lifestyles among its employees.<br />

the results of scientific research and the social, political, economic, and environmental issues raised<br />

by scientific inquiry. She was a Pulitzer Prize finalist in investigative reporting in 2000. Her books<br />

include Clone: The Road to Dolly, and the Path Ahead (1997), Ultimate Fitness: The Quest for Truth<br />

about Exercise and Health (2003), and Rethinking Thin: The New Science of Weight Loss–and the Myths<br />

and Realities of Dieting (2007), which was recently nominated for a 2008 James Beard Foundation<br />

mathematics.

ACADEMIC APPAREL<br />

The formal academic attire that distinguishes faculty and graduates at academic ceremonies is a symbol at once vertical<br />

and horizontal. It stretches back into history, to the roots of academic institutions, while at the same time it forms a bond<br />

of union among contemporary academic scholars.<br />

The gown, cap, and hood, which would certainly seem quaint today if worn on our city streets, were originally<br />

the ordinary apparel of our medieval ancestors. The gowns varied in elegance according to the rank and wealth of the<br />

owners, and the hood had the practical function of being pulled over the head for warmth. Many of the medieval universities<br />

had strict rules on the subject; at Oxford, for example, the master of arts had to swear that he owned the dress<br />

prescribed for his degree and that he would wear it on all proper occasions. Undergraduates were required to wear their<br />

gowns whenever they appeared in the public street. After the sixteenth century in Europe different styles prevailed, but<br />

the older style was retained for certain legal, official, clerical, and, especially, academic uses.<br />

In America the gown has been used to some extent since colonial times. It was only in the late nineteenth<br />

century, however, that widespread interest—sparked perhaps by the observance in 1886 of the 250th anniversary of the<br />

founding of Harvard—brought about several developments. In 1887 an enterprising member of the graduating class of<br />

Williams <strong>College</strong> designed academic gowns for the graduates to wear at the <strong>Commencement</strong> ceremony. The garb was<br />

significant and dignified; it was both traditional and democratic; it answered a need, and it quickly became popular. In<br />

1895 an intercollegiate code, standardizing the design and the color of each part of the academic regalia, was accepted by<br />

nearly all American colleges and universities.<br />

The gown is usually black, and the cut of the sleeves differs for bachelors, masters, and doctors. In addition, the<br />

doctor’s gown has panels of velvet (usually black) down the front and on the sleeves.<br />

The cap is generally black, with a tassel, which is either black or the color of the field of study; a doctor’s may be<br />

gold. The most common style of cap is the Oxford “mortar board,” with a square flat top, but some variations are<br />

permitted.<br />

The hood is the most distinctive part of the costume. It is made of black and trimmed with velvet. Both the<br />

length of the hood and the width of the trim vary with the level of the degree, the doctor’s being the longest and having<br />

the widest velvet border. The color of the velvet indicates the field of study in which the degree is earned: for example,<br />

white for arts and letters (bachelor of arts), dark blue for philosophy, brown for fine arts, golden yellow for science, scarlet<br />

for theology. The lining of the hood is the color and style of the university that confers the degree; these are all specified<br />

in the standard code of the American Council on Education. <strong>Bowdoin</strong> <strong>College</strong>’s lining is white and green to symbolize<br />

the <strong>Bowdoin</strong> pines.<br />

Whatever the degree or university, those who don the gown and hood symbolically take their places in the long<br />

procession of scholars who have pursued truth and learning and passed it on to others. The consciousness of that fellowship<br />

is at once a reward for past efforts and an inspiration for the future.<br />

RAISE SONGS TO BOWDOIN<br />

Words by K. C. M. Sills, Class of 1901<br />

New Lyrics by Anthony Antolini ’63<br />

Music by C. T. Burnett<br />

Arr. by Thornton W. Allen<br />

Raise songs to <strong>Bowdoin</strong>, praise her fame,<br />

And sound abroad her glorious name;<br />

To <strong>Bowdoin</strong>, <strong>Bowdoin</strong> lift your song,<br />

And may the music echo long<br />

O’er whispering pines and campus fair<br />

With sturdy might filling the air.<br />

<strong>Bowdoin</strong>, from birth, our nurturer and friend<br />

To thee we pledge our love again, again.<br />

While now amid thy halls we stay<br />

And breathe thy spirit day by day,<br />

Oh may we thus full worthy be<br />

To march in that proud company<br />

Of poets, leaders and each one<br />

Who brings thee fame by deeds well done.<br />

<strong>Bowdoin</strong>, from birth, our nurturer and friend<br />

To thee we pledge our love again, again.
