Distinguished Achievement AwardWilliam TruettnerLike the icons in the art of the American West,which he studies, reveres, and reveals in all ofits complexity, William Truettner is a trailblazer.In 48 years with the Smithsonian AmericanArt Museum, Mr. Truettner has called on usto challenge our assumptions about America’sart and history and our understanding of ournation is richer as a result.After receiving a bachelor of arts degree fromWilliams College in Williamstown, Mass., in1957, Mr. Truettner earned a master in arthistory degree from the University of Michiganin 1959 before spending a year studying atPrinceton. He worked at the Virginia Museumof Fine Arts in Richmond, the Arkansas ArtsCenter in Little Rock and the National Galleryof Art before embarking on a career at theSmithsonian American Art Museum.Beginning in 1965 as an assistant curator,he rose through the ranks of the museum tobecome senior curator of painting and sculpture.Mr. Truettner has been involved with more than20 exhibitions in his career, notably organizingshows related to the American landscape andthe art of the American West.

The exhibition, like so muchof Mr. Truettner’s work, forced us to examineour preconceptions about celebrated art andartists from America’s history. His colleaguesnote that, far from courting controversy forcontroversy’s sake, Mr. Truettner was driven byhis commitment to viewing the works through acomprehensive social and political context.Known to many in the field as a lifelonglearner, lecturer, teacher, mentor and adviser,Mr. Truettner oversees the graduate fellowshipprogram at the Smithsonian American ArtMuseum, providing guidance and inspiration tostudents.

Doctoral Mentoring AwardsThe University of Florida Graduate School encourages and rewards graduate faculty for excellence, innovation and effectiveness in mentoring andadvising doctoral and graduate students through their dissertation or thesis projects. The recipients of the 2013-2014 award, and excerpts from theirpersonal statements, follow.2014 SPRINGCommencement16Leslie AndersonProfessorDepartment of Political ScienceCollege of Liberal Artsand SciencesLeslie Anderson uses a seriesof metaphors to describe hermentoring process.The “tool box” introducesstudents to the many methodspolitical scientists use to collectdata. “Finding the edge of the world” allows studentsto find the end of knowledge in their field so they candefine a dissertation project that allows them to chart acourse toward a new area of study.A research topic, she says, should be an “oversized jacket,”allowing them room to grow. The metaphor, “launchingfrom Cape Canaveral,” asks students to view theirdissertation not as an end to an academic journey buta point from which to launch a robust career, by askinga major scholarly question that can not only result in adoctorate but also take them all the way to tenure.Finally, she uses the “learner’s permit” metaphor.Students learn to drive with an adult at their side, buteventually, “. . . one must drive – and do scholarlyresearch – alone.”As graduate coordinator for her department,Dr. Anderson has ample opportunity to use themetaphors.Ido Oren, chair of the department of political science,describes Dr. Anderson as a pillar of the department’sPh.D. program, chairing 25 doctoral committees, with sixcurrent Ph.D. candidates.“The quality of Leslie’s mentoring is at least as impressiveas its quantity,” Dr. Oren says. “It is clear that Leslie treatsher students as unique human beings before anythingelse.”Former student Lee D. Walker, now an associate professorof political science at the University of South Carolina,said Dr. Anderson encourages each student to be his orher best academic self.Jonathan Jones, a 2009 doctoral graduate, said heencountered setbacks during his field work in Indiabut was prepared to meet the challenges because ofDr. Anderson's continued support and confidence inhis abilities.Ann HorgasAssociate ProfessorDepartment of Adult andElderly NursingCollege of NursingAnn Horgas says she hasgained as much frommentoring her students inthe College of Nursing asthey have gained from her.Students and colleagues saythat graciousness is typical.Former student Lois Ellis, now the director of nursingprograms at Santa Fe College, said she encounteredan assortment of challenges when she returned toschool after 25 years. As a part-time student employedfulltime, Dr. Ellis said Dr. Horgas was so sensitive tohelping her juggle commitments that they even met atStarbucks on occasion.“I often sent her long emails full of questions andconcerns, and she always responded patiently and withthoughtful and helpful answers,” Dr. Ellis said.Dr. Horgas went to great lengths to help her, especiallyconsidering that Dr. Horgas experienced a death in thefamily as Dr. Ellis was due for her qualifying exam. Tohelp her stay on track, Dr. Ellis said Dr. Horgas arrangeda temporary committee member and a new chair.“I was amazed that, under the circumstances, she wouldso calmly and carefully ensure that my needs as a studentwere considered,” Dr. Ellis said.Mentee Mindy S. Grall also saw Dr. Horgas rise aboveher hardships. “. . . through her model behavior, Ilearned the true meaning of resilience, leadership,honor, and responsibility,” Dr. Grall said.“A mentor also leaves a mark on the mentee that timecannot erase,” she said.Department of Adult and Elderly Nursing Chair JoyceStechmiller said it is a testament to her teaching thattwo of former Dr. Horgas' mentees have been hired asassistant professors in the department. One mentee,Toni L. Glover, said Dr. Horgas continues to mentor heras a new faculty member.College of Nursing Dean Anna M. McDaniel says,“Dr. Horgas' work is particularly important given thesevere national shortage in our discipline.”


Doctoral Mentoring AwardsThe University of Florida Graduate School encourages and rewards graduate faculty for excellence, innovation and effectiveness in mentoring andadvising doctoral and graduate students through their dissertation or thesis projects. The recipients of the 2013-2014 award, and excerpts from theirpersonal statements, follow.2014 SPRINGCommencement17Susan JacobsonProfessorDepartment of Wildlife Ecologyand ConservationCollege of Agricultural andLife SciencesSusan Jacobson’s firstdoctoral student jumpedat the chance to nominateher for an advising andmentoring award.Fifteen years after receivingher doctorate from UF, Mallory McDuff, who teachesenvironmental education at Warren Wilson College,describes herself as an academic, an environmentalist,a writer, a mother and Dr. Jacobson’s first doctoralstudent. Although the job market was tight when shegraduated, she received three job offers, to which shecredits to Dr. Jacobson’s mentoring.“Since my graduation, Susan and I have co-authorednumerous articles, book chapters and even a booktogether. But in my mind, I will always be her student,”Dr. McDuff says. “. . .even when I don’t call her, I knowshe has my back.”Today, in her writing, she says she is “makingconnections between what matters to people and thenatural communities around them. And Dr. Jacobsontaught me to view the world through that lens.”Wildlife Ecology and Conservation Department ChairEric C. Hallgren says a sign of her broad influence isthat her nominating letters include one from a currentstudent, one from a recent graduate and one from agraduate of 15 years ago.Dr. R. Elaine Turner, interim dean of the College ofAgricultural and Life Sciences, notes that Dr. Jacobsonhas raised $1 million in grants to support 11 internationalstudents and 40 graduate research projects across 15 UFdepartments. She has served on 33 doctoral committees,chairing 15. She has twice been selected as the CALSGraduate Teacher/Adviser of the Year and is a memberof the UF Academy of Distinguished Teaching Scholars.Dr. Jacobson says her goal is to maximize the potentialof each student.“The diaspora of my former students has been gratifyingas they now provide leadership in our field ranging fromuniversity research and teaching in the U.S. to directingthe parks and wildlife organizations in Latin Americanand Africa,” Dr. Jacobson says.J. Stuart Carlton, now a postdoctoral researcher atPurdue University, said he is a better scientist because ofher mentoring. "She's as good as it gets."Kenneth SassamanProfessorDepartment of AnthropologyCollege of Liberal Artsand SciencesKenneth Sassaman seesmentoring graduate studentsas more than creating the nextgeneration of scholars. He seesit as an opportunity to createambassadors for archaeology.Archaeology, says the Hyatt and Cici Brown endowedprofessor in Florida archaeology, should be more than“the color commentary on our collective past.”“Having been influenced by mentors versed in criticaltheory, I had come to expect archaeology to do morethan entertain,” says Dr. Sassaman, the director of theLaboratory of Southeastern Archaeology. “I expectit to contribute directly to the challenges of our ownfutures. It would take a large cadre of thoughtful, youngprofessionals to make archaeology more relevant.”Dr. Sassaman’s program attracts students interested inresearch in the Southeast, which is a growth area forarchaeology and promises continued growth with climatechange and sea level rise. He leads annual archaeologicalfield schools that are in high demand, said Neill J. Wallis,assistant curator in archaeology at the Florida Museumof Natural History and a former student.“His success and high level of productivity are almostlegendary,” Mr. Wallis said. “Students clamor to workwith him and many aspire to be like him.”Former student Asa R. Randall, now at the Universityof Oklahoma, said he and Dr. Sassaman co-authored21 conference papers and published two book chapterstogether, all before he received his doctorate.In Dr. Sassaman’s laboratory, space is filled withmaterials related to student projects, says doctoralcandidate Zachary I. Gilmore. When others complimenthim on his research program, Mr. Gilmore says, “he isalways quick to defer credit to his graduate students.”Dr. Sassaman has been asked why so much of hisendowment goes to his students, says department ChairSusan D. deFrance, adding that it is a demonstration ofhis selflessness.But Dr. Sassaman says it is part of his strategy forcommunicating to students their responsibility to theprofession, the public and the future. “I am indeedspending it on myself by spending it on graduatestudents, he said. "Building capacity for the future iswhat I do.”


Doctoral Mentoring AwardsThe University of Florida Graduate School encourages and rewards graduate faculty for excellence, innovation and effectiveness in mentoring andadvising doctoral and graduate students through their dissertation or thesis projects. The recipients of the 2013-2014 award, and excerpts from theirpersonal statements, follow.2014 SPRINGCommencement18Stephen W. SmithProfessorSchool of Special Education,School Psychology, &Early Childhood StudiesCollege of EducationWhen graduate studentsin special education lookfor a mentor, they oftenseek Stephen W. Smith.Dr. Smith, who has chairedor co-chaired 73 doctoraland master’s committees, welcomes them.Dr. Smith says one of the most critical aspects ofthe educational enterprise is the development ofindependent learners.“Helping students overcome self doubt while, at thesame time, supporting and inspiring them to developemotional resilience and requisite skills to evolve intopromising teacher educators and researchers is often theresult of an influential and satisfying relationship witha faculty mentor,” says Dr. Smith, the Irving and RoseFein Endowed Professor.Current and former students praise Dr. Smithfor providing opportunities to present research atconferences and publish, often as a co-author with him.Second-year doctoral student Michelle M. Cummingsays Dr. Smith’s passion for the field is infectious.Donna L. Pitts, another current student, says it is easy tosee why Dr. Smith has won the Teacher of the Year awardfor the College of Education and why he is one of UF’stop 100 researchers. She also appreciates his warmth.“Earlier this year, I was diagnosed with cancer, andthrough the diagnosis, treatment and recovery,Dr. Smith supported me with the utmost in compassionand encouragement,” Ms. Pitts says.Gregory G. Taylor, now teaching at the University ofIllinois, says Dr. Smith taught him to appreciate thehistory of the profession and today, as colleagues, theycollaborate.“Confident in my abilities (even when I was not), Stephenprovided instruction, resources and opportunities forme,” Dr. Taylor says. “Currently entering my secondyear as faculty at a major research university, I continueto seek Stephen’s advice on navigating the world ofacademia.”Jean B. Crockett, director of the School of SpecialEducation, School Psychology, and Early ChildhoodStudies, said the UF special education programconsistently ranks in the top 10 nationally, partly becauseof Dr. Smith’s highly visible and well-funded program.Lynn SollenbergerProfessorDepartment of AgronomyCollege of Agriculturaland Life SciencesGood mentors help charta path through school,but great mentors becomelifelong colleagues andcollaborators, and that’s howLynn Sollenberger’s menteesview him.In fact, his former students look forward to theirannual professional meeting, where several academicgenerations of the “Sollenberger stables” get together torenew friendships and perhaps plan a few experimentstogether.Bruce Mathews, now interim dean at the University ofHawaii, said his decision to attend UF for doctoral workwas based on Dr. Sollenberger’s reputation as a risingstar in grassland agriculture.“Dr. Sollenberger is the most committed professorthat I have ever observed when it comes to doctoraladvising, and this relationship with his students hasoften continued well beyond the Ph.D.,” Dr. Mathewssays. “Even today, I frequently seek his editorial inputon grant proposals and journal article manuscripts inaddition to assistance on analytical procedures, effectiveteaching, and institutional policies.”Dr. Sollenberger says his goal as a mentor is to graduate“capable, independent and productive scientists whoare excited about what they do . . .”“Graduate student mentoring is not a casual task, andlike being a parent, it should not be treated casually,”Dr. Sollenberger says. “. . . effective mentors are handson, interactive and engaged with their students.”Kenneth Quesenberry, a professor emeritus andinterim chair of the agronomy department, supervisedDr. Sollenberger’s doctoral studies and has watchedDr. Sollenberger become a “consummate example of auniversity scholar and mentor.”“It is striking to me in reading [nomination] lettersthat both former and current students consistentlyspeak to Dr. Sollenberger’s ability to make each studentfeel special by giving dedicated individual time whenneeded and then allowing freedom to be creative andindependent when appropriate,” Dr. Quesenberry says.Dr. Sollenberger has served on 119 graduate committeesand has chaired or co-chaired the committees of 48graduate students, including 26 doctoral students.

Chain of OfficeThe chain of office is an ornament worn with the president’s academic regalia symbolizingthe authority and responsibilities incumbent with the office. The chain was presented in2004 during the installation ceremony of President J. Bernard Machen. The medallioncenterpiece is a 1.3-carat orange diamond engraved with the portraits, names and serviceyears of the university’s 11 presidents. The Major Analytical Instruments Center atUF used ion beam engraving technology on the medallion. Also on the medallion arethree .025-carat blue diamonds placed around the silhouette of the Century Tower andUniversity Auditorium, signifying teaching, research and service. All four diamonds,donated by Gemesis Corp. of Sarasota, Florida, were grown using a process developedand patented by UF’s Department of Materials Science and Engineering.Academic Mace“Honoring the Past, Shaping the Future” was the signature of the University of Florida’ssesquicentennial celebration in 2003. It also was the inspiration for the ceremonial mace createdand dedicated to mark this historic event. The mace dates back to the Middle Ages and symbolizesstrength and authority; each is unique and reflects the values and characteristics of the institution.The university’s chief marshal carries the mace at all academic processions. Designed and craftedon the University of Florida campus, the mace artfully symbolizes those elements important tothe university’s identity and history.The 70-inch ceremonial staff combines traditional elements with modern styling. The stylizedalligator rests on the globe signifying the University of Florida as an adaptable global leader inteaching, research and service. The four pillars supporting the globe represent the four original colleges; Agriculture,Engineering, Liberal Arts and Law. The cone holds the University of Florida Seal and words to the Alma Mater.The staff is carved from native cherry wood. The acorn finial depicts the adage “from tiny acorns mighty oaks dogrow,” a commitment to lifelong learning. The brick pattern on the handle symbolizes higher education traditionand structure. Like the institution it represents, the mace is not static; growth and movement are expressed withloose rings engraved with the names of the university’s presidents and their years in office.University of Florida TasselsFisher School of Accounting.................................................................................................................AquaCollege of Agricultural and Life Sciences............................................................................................MaizeM.E.

Caps and Gowns, An ExplanationThe academic costume worn by graduating students and faculty at today'scommencement ceremonies evolved from a style of dress worn by membersof guilds and religious orders in medieval times. The black academic gown isworn by individuals who have earned a degree in higher education. In addition,hoods are worn by graduate degree candidates, but not by undergraduatedegree candidates.At the University of Florida, the lining of the hood has a blue chevron onan orange background to represent the university colors. University facultymembers who hold degrees from another college or university wear the colorsof their alma mater.The velvet edging on the academic hood is the color that represents theparticular degree held by the wearer. Agricultural and Life Sciences and ForestResources and Conservation share maize edging; Design, Construction andPlanning and Building Construction are blue violet; Audiology degrees havecolonial blue edging; Business Administration and Accounting are drab;Dentistry is lilac; Education is light blue; Engineering degrees are representedby orange edging; Fine Arts degrees have brown edging; Health and Human Performance is sage green; Journalismand Communications is garnet; Law is purple; Liberal Arts is white and Liberal Sciences is gold yellow; Medicine isgreen; Music is pink; Natural Resources and Environment is antique gold; Nursing is apricot; Doctor of Pharmacy isolive; Philosophy is royal blue; Public Health degrees have salmon pink edging; Rehabilitation Counseling degreeshave Nile green edging; and Veterinary Medicine is gray.Distinctions among sleeves indicate the type of degree held by the wearer. A long, pointed sleeve indicates a bachelor’sdegree, while a long, closed sleeve with a slit near the upper part of the arm designates a master’s degree. A round,open sleeve identifies a doctoral degree.The doctoral costume also has velvet running on the rest of the gown, including cross bars on the sleeve. Thetrimming may be black or it may match the color of the velvet hood edging. Colored tassels on the degree candidates’caps indicate a candidate’s school or college.Decorating the platform today are ‘Gator Glory’ coleus plants. These are anew variety of garden plant developed and provided by the UF/IFAS Institutefor Plant Innovation.The 2012-2013 academic year was been spent celebrating the 150 th anniversaryof the Morrill Act. This federal legislation, signed by President AbrahamLincoln on July 2, 1862, established a nationwide network of public landgrantuniversities with a new mission. They would not only offer traditionalsubjects such as medicine, theology and law, they would also teach agricultural science, military tactics andengineering. Moreover, these institutions were created with federal financial support, designed to make highereducation affordable to people from modest backgrounds.UF’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences (UF/IFAS) is dedicated to furthering the tripartite land-grantmission of teaching, research and extension. The idea for developing a Gator-orange coleus originated in ORH 1030,Plants Gardening and You. Taught by Dr. David Clark, professor of environmental horticulture, the class studiesthe art and science of plants and makes students more aware of the plants they eat and the plants in theirsurroundings. Students in the course receive plants of their own each week. In the last four years, more than25,000 plants have been given to the 2,000 students who have taken the class and to friends they have broughtwith them from every major on campus.2014 SPRINGCommencement62Working with research colleagues in the UF/IFAS Institute for Plant Innovation, Dr. Clark used novel breedingtechniques to develop this variety. The gold band around the bright orange leaves symbolizes the color traditionallyused for agricultural disciplines in academic regalia. This new variety has proven to be tough in the warm Floridasunshine and is now given to the people of Florida for their continued support of the Gator Nation.


Alma MaterFlorida, our Alma MaterThy glorious name we praiseAll thy loyal sons and daughtersA joyous song shall raise.Where palm and pine are blowing,Where southern seas are flowing,Shine forth thy noble Gothic walls,Thy lovely vine-clad halls.Neath the Orange and Blue victoriousOur love shall never fail.There’s no other name so glorious–All hail, Florida, Hail!Milton Yeats
