THE CEREMONIAL MACE
The Ceremonial Mace, a symbol of presidential authority, is carried at the head of the academic
procession by the College Marshal, Dr. Francis R. Johnson. A gift of the Alumni Association, the
Mace was designed and executed by Dr. Seymour Blinderman, formerly of the Art faculty, and Mr.
Henry Katzwinkel. It was first used at the inauguration of President Chester T. McNerney.
The Mace, twenty-seven inches high, is topped by a sterling silver sphere studded by coneshaped
rubies. The neck of the Mace is inlaid with rosewood, alternated with silver fleur-de-lis. Cultured
pearls mounted on cups encircle the top of the shaft. Discs of silver interspersed with rosewood
compose the shaft which ends with tip-casted silver. Sunken cultured pearls encircle a rounded
cone with textured silver to end in a small globe.

THE PRESIDENTIAL MEDALLION
A symbol of presidential authority, the Presidential Medallion will be presented to Foster F.
Diebold, President of Edinboro State College, by Mrs. Eve Murphy, Chairperson of the College
Board of Trustees. It will be permanently housed in the President’s office and presented to
successive presidents. Designed and executed by Mr. Henry Katzwinkel, Assistant Professor of
Art, the sterling silver Medallion consists of a three and one-half inch pectoral pendant featuring
on its face the sunken crest of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. On the reverse side is the figure
of a Gordon Highlander with pipes. To the right of the piper is the Cross of St. Andrew. To the left is
the Cross of England. Flanking the figure is the date 1857, the opening year of the College, and
garland thistles. In the background are the hills of Scotland, and beneath the piper is an open book,
an image of knowledge.
The pendant descends from a shield containing a triple-towered castle, the symbol of defense,
protection, and strength. The collar of the medallion is comprised of a series of two-inch shields,
alternately bearing three different designs: the meigle, an interlacing knotwork peculiar to the
Pictish school of Celtic art; the Tudor rose design; and “ESC” in interlocking letters on a
background of tabby weaving. Connecting each of the collar shields is a Cross of St. George,
representing the union of Scotland and England. The entire medallion was fabricated and cast in
the cire perdue (lost wax) process.

COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER — CHARLES R. WEBBER
Alaska Commissioner of Commerce and Economic Development

THE COLLEGE MARSHAL - DR. FRANCIS R. JOHNSON
Carrying the Ceremonial Mace and leading
the academic procession as College Marshal is
Dr. Francis R. Johnson, one of the most senior
members of the Edinhoro State College faculty.
During his 23^2 years on the Edinhoro staff, he
has served in both the ranks of the faculty and
the administration.

Mr. Charles R. Webber, Alaska Department of
Commerce and Economic Development Commissioner,
will deliver the address at today’s commencement
exercises. During the exercises, Edinhoro State College
President Foster F. Diebold will present Mr. Webber
with an honorary Doctorate of Science, the first degree
of its kind ever awarded by the College.

Dr. Johnson joined the Edinhoro State College
faculty in 1958 and had a dual assignment in
both the English and speech departments. It
was at that time the College sought to expand
the services of speech correction with special
education, and in 1959, he was assigned to teach
courses in speech correction and psychology
and became a member of the psychology/special
education department.

Possessing more than 25 successful years of experi­
ence in the Alaska business community. Commissioner
Webber began his success as an owner and manager of
a construction equipment sales firm in Anchorage in
1951. Subsequently, he became involved in the con­
struction and operation of Alaska’s first industrial gas
plants with locations in Anchorage, Fairbanks, and
Kenai.
In 1979, Governor Jay Hammond appointed Mr.
Webber to his cabinet as the Commissioner of the Alaska
Department of Commerce and Economic Development.
The department has wide-ranging responsibilities in­
cluding regulatory programs for public protection and
economic development programs for Alaska’s financial
future. The department regulates financial institutions,
securities, the insurance industry, and the licensing of
occupations and professions. Economic development
programs include tourism, fisheries, minerals, and power and energy development.

He has the distinction of writing all the
original programs in speech and hearing at
Edinhoro, now recognized as one of the finest
speech and hearing units in Pennsylvania. In
addition, he was directly involved in the planning and equipping of Edinboro’s initial speech and
hearing lab. Leader Clinic. During his IV2. years of teaching in that particular facility. Dr. Johnson
provided free diagnostic speech and hearing services for students, faculty, and townspeople. He is
currently a member of the College’s speech communications department.
In 1964, Dr. Johnson was appointed administrative director of Edinhoro State College’s Warren
campus, located in Warren, Pa. Prior to the establishment of the on-site facility in Warren, Dr.
Johnson assisted in coordinating Edinboro’s extension courses there. After several years of
negotiating, planning, and rennovating, the campus was moved from its original in-town location
to a site north of Warren that included 196 acres of land and several buildings. Enrollment
increased from an initial figure of 51 students to 399 students. Johnson returned to the main
campus in September of 1979 after the Warren Center had fulfilled its needs as a branch campus of
the institution.

As Commissioner of Commerce and Economic Development, Webber also serves on numerous
boards and commissions. He is a chairman of the State Bond Committee and serves as a member of
the Alaska Industrial Development Authority, the Alaska Housing Finance Corporation, the
Alaska Power Authority, the Alaska State Housing Authority and the Board of Marine Pilots.
A University of Colorado graduate, where he received a bachelor of science degree in mechanical
engineering in 1949, Mr. Webber has been a design engineer, the general manager of an industrial
and liquid air products company, as well as a private consultant for property management in
Anchorage, Alaska. Among his numerous major public activities, he has served as president of the
Anchorage Chamber of Commerce Board, a University of Alaska regent, chairman of the
Providence Hospital Board, and chairman of the American Welding Society.

Upon completion of his undergraduate work at Bloomsburg State College, Dr. Johnson received
his Master’s of Education in Speech Pathology/Audiology and Clinical Psychology from Penn
State in 1952 and followed in 1976 with his Ph.D. from the University of Pittsburgh. After receiving
his B.S. degree, he was a speech therapist with the Warren Borough schools from 1951 through
1956 and then established and organized the speech and hearing program in Warren County
schools, 1956 through 1958. In April of 1979, he received a citation of congratulations from the
Senate of Pennsylvania for his efforts in various areas of education over a 33-year period.
Dr. Johnson and his wife, Jean, currently reside in Edinhoro and have five children — Amy,
Douglas, Judith, Barbara, and David.

Mr. Webber’s tenure as Commissioner of Alaska’s Department of Commerce and Economic
Development has been particularly significant because of his policy-making role and managerial
guidance during a time in Alaskan history when crucial decisions are being made with regard to
resource development. The disposition of oil generated revenues, for example, involves decisions
that inevitably contain economic, social, and ethical implications.
The faculty, students, and administrators of Edinhoro State College are convinced that Mr.
Webber clearly meets the criteria for the awarding of the honorary Doctorate of Science degree: the
initiation of, and involvement in, significant activities that have had positive and profound effects
upon the lives of individuals and that have contributed significantly to the development of
government and/or society.

EDINBORO STATE COLLEGE PRESIDENT - FOSTER F. DIEBOLD
Foster F. Diebold was named Edinboro State
College’s 14th President on August 1,1979. Since
that time, he has brought a consistently bold
vision to his guidance of the College’s manyfaceted services to northwestern Pennsylvania.
Noted for his extensive experience in the field of
education management, President Diebold had
previously served as President of the University
of Alaska statewide system.
His innovative efforts at Edinboro have taken
many shapes. Most recently, he initiated a total
reorganization of the College’s various academic
schools and administrative offices with a watch­
ful eye upon fiscal responsibility and increased
institutional responsiveness. In keeping with
his policy of making maximum use of existing
campus resources during a period of restricted
resources in higher education, he has imagina­
tively met the ever-changing needs brought
about by new and emerging student interests
and societal expectations.
Unique cooperative programs with area business and industry are also the result of President
Diebold’s revitalization of Edinboro State College. Among his favorite projects is the All-College
Honors Program, which draws upon the contributions of College staff for its scholarship funds,
and which recognizes the academic distinction of excellent students by offering specialized
interdisciplinary coursework and advanced research work.
President Diebold’s principal fields of professional interest include higher education manage­
ment, governance, and planning; budget development and fiscal control; legislative liaison; and
personnel management/collective bargaining. While at Rutgers University in 1963, he received a
Wall Street Journal fellowship.
A native of Orange, New Jersey, he served as President of the University of Alaska from
1977-1979. Prior to that, he was executive secretary to the Board of Regents and Special Assistant
to the President of the University of Alaska’s statewide system. From 1969 to 1976, he was director
of the Division of College Development at Kean College, New Jersey (formerly Newark State
College), and from 1965 to 1969, he was Assistant Superintendent of Neptune Township Public
Schools in New Jersey.
President Diebold was formerly a member of the graduate school of education at Kean College
from 1969 to 1976; a teacher of English and psychology in the Neptune Township Public Schools
from 1959 to 1965; and in 1957 and 1958, he was a supervisor at the Arthur Brisbane Child
Treatment Center for the Emotionally Disturbed in Farmingdale, New Jersey.
Edinboro’s President holds an associate degree in psychology from Monmouth Community
College, West Long Branch, New Jersey; a bachelor of science degree in education from Monmouth
College, a master of arts in educational administration from Seton Hall University; and he has met
course requirements for his doctorate in education at Rutgers University.
President Diebold currently serves as Chairman of the Committee on Administration and
Finance in the State College and University System of Pennsylvania and in July will begin a term
as a member of the Commission of Presidents Executive Committee. He holds membership on the
American Association of State Colleges and Universities Committee on State Relations, and on
the Government Relations Committee of the Pennsylvania Association of Colleges and
Universities.
President Diebold’s community service includes membership on the Board of Corporators,
Hamot Medical Center in Erie, and on Marine Bank’s Local Advisory Board. Recently he was a
panel participant at the First Global Conference on the Future in Toronto, Canada.
The President and his wife, Patricia, have a five-year-old daughter, Jessica.

PROGRAM OF HONORS STUDIES
The Edinboro State College Program of Honors Studies is designed to provide recognition and
enriched learning opportunities for academically gifted students. Outstanding undergraduates
are assisted in striving for academic excellence in their majors and in their related studies as well.
The students pursue studies that are clearly greater in depth and scope than that required of other
undergraduates. Those who successfully complete the program, which involves studies in a variety
of areas, are graduated with all-college honors. Admission to the All-College Honors Program is
limited to entering freshmen with high college board scores and to Edinboro students who
maintain high quality point averages after enrollment at the College.

SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS
EDINBORO ALUMNI ASSOCIATION SCHOLARSHIP

LOIS CALDWELL NORTH SCHOLARSHIP

Each year the Edinboro State College Alumni Association provides a four-year scholarship to an
outstanding high school senior enrolling in the College.

Two annual scholarships have been endowed in memory of Mrs. Lois Caldwell North by her
daughter, Eleanor North, of State College, Pa. The awards are made each year to students who
plan to enter the ministry upon completion of their education.

BILLINGS MATH EDUCATION SCHOLARSHIP
The C. Wilbur and Mabel Cassidy Billings Mathematics Education Scholarship provides an

This scholarship is in honor of C. Wilbur and Mabel Cassidy Billings.

ORGANIZATION OF BORO WOMEN SCHOLARSHIP
The Edinboro Organization of Boro Women has funded an annual award for an outstanding
General McLane High School senior planning to attend Edinboro. The scholarship is based on
academic ability as determined by class rank. College Board scores, and letters of reference with
some consideration given to family resources.

ROBERT J. BYERS, MD AWARD
The School of Anesthesia at Hamot Medical Center in Erie, with help from its alumni and
friends, has recently instituted the Robert J. Byers, MD Award, to be given to the Edinboro student
who has the highest academic standing in anatomy and physiology. Dr. Byers served as the first
chairman of the Anesthesiology Department at Hamot from 1959 to 1978, retiring in September of
this year after 23 years of service.

and/or graphic arts.

An endowment fund was provided to Edinboro State College in memory of Mrs. Helen Sabin
Reed, a member of the education faculty from 1961 through 1966. Because Mrs. Reed was a
specialist in the reading field, the yearly scholarship is awarded to an elementary education major.
Mrs. Theo Sabin Meyer of Erie, Mrs. Mildred Sabin Young, Los Angeles, sisters; and a brother,
Robert W. Sabin, Long Beach, California, established the gift.
RUSSIAN LANGUAGE AND AREA STUDY SCHOLARSHIP

Deans of the Schools of Engineering or Science, at each institution. Edinboro offers the award to
the outstanding freshman applicant pursuing a career in the engineering or science field.

A Russian Language and Area Study Scholarship is granted to promising high school seniors
desiring to combine a major in Russian with secondary specialization in either economics,

to prepare the scholarship winners for careers in International trade in general, and East-West
trade in particular.

DEAN RICHARD I. WELLER AWARD
The Lake Area Health Education Center and Dr. Richard I. Weller, Dean of the School of Science

RUSSELL WOOD ACCOUNTING SCHOLARSHIP
The Russell M. Wood Accounting Scholarship provides an award of $250 per year to an incoming
freshman who has shown outstanding high school academic achievement and who plans to enroll
at Edinboro with his/her major course of study being accounting. This award is in honor of Russell
M. Wood, a long-time and now retired accountant at Edinboro State College.

ACADEMIC VESTMENTS
The gown, the cap and the hood, representing the major components of the academic dress, are a
ceremonial inheritance from the medieval universities of the eleventh and twelfth centuries, where
dress was the outward sign of privilege and responsibility. The academic dress worn by those
participating in today’s academic processional symbolizes the level of their academic attainment
and the institution they attended.
Gown
Although the gown is more frequently black, certain universities have authorized the use of
colored gowns. The bachelor and master gowns are fashioned from black serge. The yoke for the
bachelor gown is designed to be worn closed and features long, flowing and pointed sleeves. The
master gown is designed to be worn open or closed. Its sleeves are very long with square ends, and
the front part has an arc cut away. The arms protrude through a slit at the elbow. The gown for the
doctor degree is made of wool, serge, or silk with an open front faced with wide velvet panels. The
sleeves are loose and bell-shaped with three bars of velvet in black or the color of the discipline in
which the doctorate was obtained.
Hood
The most outstanding feature of the academic dress is the hood. It is usually worn only for the
master’s and the doctor’s degrees. The doctor’s hood is longer than the master’s hood and has
distinguished panels. The college or the university granting the degree is indicated by the color or
coloring of the hood lining. The velvet trim of the hood indicates the field in which the degree was
granted.
Cap
The standard cap is the mortarboard, usually the color of the gown. The tassel is black for the
baccalaureate and master degree and is worn over the left front quarter of the cap. The tassel for
the doctor’s mortarboard is of gold thread. Undergraduates wear the tassel on the right side of the
cap until the moment the degree is conferred by the president.

Because of the demand to meet a deadline to print this program and the short period of time
between the end of classes, review of all academic programs, delays caused by such factors as
illness of some students and evaluation by the Office of Academic Affairs, the College does not
claim the list of degree candidates is absolutely accurate. Students are granted degrees only if they
meet all academic and financial requirements.

ALMA MATER
Hail to Thee, our Alma Mater Glorious,
Fresh Wreaths we bring to bind Thy brow
Trials have past and Thou has stood victorious
Never fairer never statelier than now,
O Edinboro, Edinboro
Ever praising Thee in song
While class speeds class as swift years pass
to Thee our hearts belong.

AND THE WORLD WILL BE BETTER FOR THIS:
THAT ONE MAN, SCORNED AND COVERED WITH SCARS
STILL STROVE, WITH HIS LAST OUNCE OF COURAGE,
TO REACH THE UNREACHABLE STARS.
