Address
Dr. Libby Doggett
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Early Learning
United States Department of Education

Friday, December 12, 2014

3:00 p.m. Ceremony

Libby Doggett brings to her position at the Department a lifetime of experience in early learning, Head
Start, and child care for children with and without disabilities. Before joining the Department, Doggett
was the director of the Pew Charitable Trusts Home Visiting campaign where she oversaw a robust
research agenda and worked with advocates in target states to build political and public understanding
and support for data-driven investments that align with federal guidance. Prior to that Doggett directed
Pre-K Now, a 10-year campaign to advance high-quality, voluntary pre-kindergarten for all three- and
four-year-olds in states across the country. Doggett also worked for the National Head Start Association,
directing their HeadsUp! reading program to improve literacy instruction in early learning classrooms
across the country. In her home state of Texas, Doggett ran a home visiting program for infants and
toddlers with disabilities living in the Texas hill country, after which she served as the executive director
of the Arc of Texas, an advocacy group for children with developmental disabilities. Doggett began her
career as a bilingual first grade teacher at Ortega Elementary School in Austin. Doggett is returning to the
department where in the nineties she served as executive director of the Federal Interagency Coordinating
Council for infants, toddlers and preschoolers with disabilities and their families.

Doggett holds a doctorate from the University of Texas in early childhood special education. During
her undergraduate years at the University of Texas, she met her husband Lloyd Doggett, currently a U.S.
Representative from Texas and a senior Member on the Ways & Means Committee. The Doggetts have
two daughters, Lisa and Cathy, and three granddaughters, Ella, Clara and Zayla.

SPOTLIGHT ON RISING STARS

Texas State University has been recognized as a top veteran-friendly school on several occasions.
Most recently, the Military Times named Texas State as No. 14 on its “Best for Vets” college rankings
for our university culture, student support, academic quality, academic policies, and financial aid.
We also sponsor initiatives that bring awareness about the presence of armed services veterans on
campus and in the community.

Texas State has a long history of educating both former and future military members. The Air Force
Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC) graduates officers who pursue armed services careers and
move up the ranks. We are proud to have three active brigadier generals as part of the alumni family
as well as numerous other veterans and military personnel.

We salute our students, alumni, and their families for their commitment to serving our country.
They inspire us all to reach for the stars.

 CEREMONIAL MACE

The use of a mace during university graduation ceremonies combines

symbolic communication with the principle of vested authority at
the most traditional and sacred of academic celebrations. The Texas
State University ceremonial mace is made of cherrywood adorned
with gold-plated brass accents. Atop the mace is the university
seal, displayed on gold-plated bronze medals on both sides of a
cherrywood disk. Beneath the seal, a cherrywood cylinder bears
four 24-karat gold-plated bronze medals, engraved with the words
AUCTORITAS, GRAVITAS, HUMANITAS, and VERITAS.
These words come down to us from antiquity and represent our
shared academic values:

Auctoritas: The sense of one’s standing gained through experience,

industriousness, and service to others
Gravitas: A sense of dignity, seriousness, and duty
Humanitas: An appreciation for refinement, civilization, and learning
Veritas: Truthfulness

The mace adds meaning and dignity to the commencement ritual. It reminds both participants and
spectators that education is one of the most cherished attributes of a free and democratic society.

42
 COMMENCEMENT REGALIA

The gowns, caps, and hoods worn at university functions date back to the early days of the oldest
universities in the Middle Ages. Monks and students wore them to keep warm in the damp and drafty
12th century halls of learning. This traditional academic dress had been gradually revised to the modern
form that you see today.

All gowns have a semi-stiff yoke, long pleated front, and intricate shirring across the shoulders and back.
The bachelor’s gown is worn closed, reaches about 8 to 10 inches from the floor and has long sleeves from
which the arms extend at the wrist. The master’s gown may be worn open or closed and has long, pointed
sleeves closed at the end, the forearm coming through a slit near the elbow, with the flowing sleeve
extending down the thigh. The doctor’s gown may also be worn either open or closed but is distinguished
by broad velvet panels down the front and by three velvet bars on the full bell-shaped sleeves. This velvet
trimming may be either black or dark blue.

The black cap with maroon and gold tassel is worn by the holders of bachelor’s and master’s degrees; the
black velvet tam with gold tassel is worn by holders of doctoral degrees.

The hood (not usually worn by the holders of the bachelor’s degree) is a black shell, silk-lined in the color
or colors of the institution conferring the degree. The colors of Texas State University are shown by a
maroon lining crossed with a gold chevron. The velvet border of the hood is the color signifying the field
of learning in which the degree was earned and not in the department in which the major was completed.
Thus, a degree conferred as master of education with a major in physical education requires the light
blue of education rather than the sage of physical education. Similarly, the “doctor of philosophy” degree
requires the dark blue of philosophy, not the color of the department in which the major of study was
completed.

Colors signifying various fields of study that you may see today include:

Agriculture Maize Nursing Apricot

Arts, Letters, Humanities White Oratory (Speech) Silver Grey
Commerce, Accountancy, Business Drab Philosophy Dark Blue
Criminal Justice, Law Purple Physical Education Sage
Economics Copper Physical Therapy Teal
Education Light Blue Public Administration,
Engineering Orange Educational Leadership, Foreign

 TEXAS STATE OFFICIAL RING

The Texas State Official Class Ring is a lifelong representation of Texas State
pride. The symbols on the ring capture the essence of Texas State.

Explanation of symbols
The top of the official ring features a Texas “lone star” set upon an oak-and-
laurel wreath. Around the crown of the ring, the Texas State University name
and the founding date of 1899 are spelled out.

The left side of the ring features Texas State’s original campus building, Old Main, with tubers floating
by on the steady flow of the San Marcos River. The right side features the T-star-S-logo and is symbolic
of the historic roots of Texas State. The T is for Texas and the S is for State. The star represents the star in
both the university seal and the state seal of Texas. The school flower, the gaillardia, is engraved inside the
ring. Also known as the Indian blanket, it is the source of Texas State’s school colors, producing showy
gold-and-maroon flowers along freeways and highways, and representing Texas State throughout the state
and beyond.

How to wear your ring

Before graduation: wear your ring facing in, so that when you look down at your hand you can read Texas
State University.

At graduation: after you receive your diploma, turn your ring around so that the words Texas State
University now face out, displaying your pride to the world.

44
 TEXAS STATE TASSEL

Tassel turning is a time-honored tradition at Texas State. Baccalaureate, Master’s, and Specialist candidates
wear a maroon and gold tassel adorned with a gold charm displaying the year of graduation. Doctoral
candidates wear a solid gold tassel.

After diploma presentations, candidates are instructed to move their tassels from the right side of their
cap to the left, signifying the completion of their degree at Texas State.

CORDS, STOLES, AND MEDALLIONS

Cords, stoles, and medallions are worn around the neck of graduates, signifying academic honors or other
achievements. Cords are made of braided nylon in a variety of colors. Stoles are panels of silk that can
be embroidered with letters or symbols. Medallions are made of metal or glass-like material and hang on
colored ribbon.

Some items that you may see today include:

Maroon and gold cords, solid Academic Honors

Maroon and gold cords, braided Athlete
Red, white, and blue cords, braided Veteran, United States of America
Crystal medallion with maroon ribbon Honors College

 TEXAS STATE CEREMONIAL BRASS

Ceremonial Brass, a student ensemble,

performs for some 15 Texas State
Commencement ceremonies each
year. It is comprised of top brass and
percussion students in the School of
Music, conducted by music faculty
such as Director of Bands Dr. Caroline
Beatty, Associate Director of Bands
Dr. Kyle Glaser, and School of Music
Director Dr. Thomas Clark. A Texas
State of Mind, often performed at
these events, was composed especially
for them by former School of Music
Director Joseph Stuessy.

The Texas State School of Music’s wind and percussion ensembles have won national recognition and
appeared at such distinguished festivals and conventions as the Texas Music Educators Association in San
Antonio and the College Band Directors National Association.

The Ceremonial Brass is one ensemble of many offered by the School of Music, including choirs,
wind ensembles, symphony orchestra, mariachi, salsa bands, jazz bands, opera theater, modern music,
percussion, steel drums, flute choir, trombone choir, horn choir, drumline, and, of course, Bobcat
Marching Band! Though many ensemble members are music majors, many also come from a variety
of disciplines across the entire campus, especially for Marching Band. Texas State music ensembles
have performed across the U.S. and abroad, in South Africa, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Ireland, Czech
Republic, Mexico, Chile, and The Netherlands.

The School of Music offers a busy lineup of concerts for the public, frequently including acclaimed guest
artists. The Somos Músicos concert series is designed for music students to perform for each other in a
supportive, informal setting. Reaching beyond the idea of a learning laboratory, “Somos Músicos” (“We
are Musicians”) has become a motto for the entire school, expressing a collective passion for making
music together.

Alumni can keep up with Texas State Music on Facebook (Texas State University-School of Music) or on
the Web at music.txstate.edu.
