QIruupbellluiuersity Established in 1887 as an academy with a charter-class enrollment of sixteen students, Campbell University has developed into a major university with more than 6,000 students. Students hail from throughout North Carolina, the United States and from around the world.
Established as a liberal arts college, which initially awarded the associate and bachelor degrees, the academic program of Campbell University was greatly expanded in 1976 when the trustees authorized the establishment of graduate programs in education and business and the awarding of the Master of Education and Master of Business Administration degrees.
Doctoral programs were authorized by the trustees in 1976 with the establishment of the Norman Adrian Wiggins School of Law and the awarding of the Jutis Doctor degree. The Doctor of Pharmacy degree was approved in 1985 with the establishment of the Campbell University School of Pharmacy, now called the College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences.
The Campbell University Divinity School, was established on October 25, 1995 and enrolled the charter class in August, 1996. In 2009, the Norman Adrian Wiggins School of Law relocated to downtown Raleigh, becoming the first law school in the capital city. And most recently, the University introduced a seventh school, a School of Osteopathic Medicine, which will welcome its first class in fall 2013.
Because of the University's strategic location, Campbell provides extended campus educational opportunities at Fort Bragg/ Pope, Camp Lejeune/New River, and Research Triangle Park. In keeping with the University's commitment to global education, Campbell University students enroll in international programs in Asia, Africa, Europe and South America.
Currently, more than 700 students are enrolled in a Campbell University degree program at Tunku Abdul Rahman College in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Campbell University is committed to the mission of providing its students with a Christian worldview and a charge to be "the salt of the earth and the light of the world." Open to all qualified students, Campbell's student-body includes persons from multiple faith traditions.
Campbell University has been led by four presidents: Dr. James A. Campbell, Dr. Leslie H. Campbell, Dr. Norman Adrian Wiggins and the current president, Dr. Jerry M. Wallace.
Q---\ 3
~er graduating from Ragsdale High School
in Jamestown, The Honorable Pat McCrory
ttended Catawba College in Rowan County.
He graduated with degrees in Education and Political
Science, then packed his bags for Charlotte and went
to work full time for Duke Energy. A management
training program put Pat through a rotation of digging
ditches and climbing electric poles as well as stints in
various management jobs from human resources to
economic development.
After being inspired to make a difference in the city of
Charlotte, Pat threw his hat into the political arena and
decided to run for an at-large city council seat, and won.
He won two more times, serving as Mayor Pro Tern in the
process. In 1995, Pat was elected Mayor of Charlotte and
went on to serve a record seven terms.
The city was on the cusp of an explosion of growth, but
it took a visionary leader to help bring Charlotte to the
next level and become one of America's great cities. Mayor
Pat brought together teams of people from both parties
and across the public and private sectors, showing great
leadership on Charlotte's major issues like economic
development, job-creation, infrastructure, transportation,
public safety, and education. Tens of thousands of net

new jobs were created during Pat's tenure as Mayor and
Charlotte became an economic hub in transportation,
banking, manufacturing, energy, and tourism. Pat
successfully reduced property taxes as well as the city's
crime rate.
Pat founded the Mayor's Mentoring Alliance in 1995
and personally served as a mentor to youth in the city. In
2005, Charlotte was named in the 100 Best Communities
for Youth by America's Promise. Pat has been involved
in many local charity boards, and served as the honorary
chair for the Charlotte chapter of the Alzheimer's
Foundation and the Arthritis Foundation. He also served
as the Chair of the Republican Mayors Association and
received a presidential appointment to the Homeland
Security Advisory Committee.
In 2001, Pat founded the North Carolina Metropolitan
Mayors Association, a bipartisan group of mayors working
together to find common solutions to problems facing
North Carolina's cities. After leaving the Mayor's Office in
2009, Pat joined the Charlotte-based firm Moore & Van
Allen to consult on energy issues, economic development,
and strategic initiatives and began serving on the boards
of two great North Carolina-headquartered companies,
Lending Tree and Kewaunee Scientific.
In 2012, Pat McCrory decided to make a second run
for governor and won. His focus on the campaign was
fixing North Carolina's broken economy and broken
government. In his victory speech on Election Night, Pat
stated, "We need to exceed our potential. Every one of
us ... And if we all exceed our potential, North Carolina
will be number one again." It was with that spirit and the
lessons instilled in him by his parents many years ago that
Pat took the oath of office, becoming the 74th governor of the great State of North Carolina. He and his wife,
Ann, live with their dog, Mo.

Oluwphell iutuerstty iltsston §tuteweut MISSION
The mission of Campbell University is to graduate students with exemplary academic and professional skills who are prepared for purposeful lives and meaningful service. The University is informed and inspired by its Baptist heritage and three basic theological and biblical presuppositions: learning is appointed and conserved by God as essential to the fulfillment of human destiny; in Christ all things consist and find ultimate unity; and the Kingdom of God in this world is rooted and grounded in Christian community. The University embraces the conviction that there is no conflict between the life of faith and the life of inquiry.
To FULFILL ITS MISSION, THE UNIVERSITY:
I. presents a worldview informed by Christian principles and perspectives;
II. affirms that truth is revelatory and transcendent as well as empirical and rational, and that all truth finds its unity in Jesus Christ;
III. influences development of moral courage, social sensitivity, and ethical responsibility;
IV. gathers a diverse community of learners;
V. delivers academic instruction in the liberal arts and sciences and professional preparation at both undergraduate and graduate levels;
VI. transfers to students the vast body of knowledge and values accumulated over the ages;
VII. encourages students to think critically and creatively;
VIII. fosters the development of intellectual vitality, physical wellness, and aesthetic sensibility;
IX. forges a community of learning that is committed to the pursuit, discovery, and dissemination of knowledge;
X. provides students with servant leadership opportunities;
XI. cooperates with other educational institutions to expand learning opportunities for students;
XII. offers service and other opportunities to the greater community through athletics, continuing education, cultural enrichment programming, and extended-campus education.
IDqc alampbclliutucflitty flarc An academic custom that originated in the sixteenth century is part of today's commend;:ment ceremonies. The academic procession is led by the Commencement Marshal, carrying the official Mace of Campbell University. Although not as ornate as the first Mace presented by Queen Elizabeth I to Oxford University in 1589, the Campbell University Mace is steeped in tradition and purpose.
The design of the Mace incorporates features signifYing the Christian purpose of Campbell University. The Mace's boss is a sphere topped by the Celtic Cross and supported by six flanges. The Celtic Cross represents the early and continuing faith of the Christians who settled the Cape Fear Region and who were instrumental in establishing Campbell University.
The sphere represents the world which Campbell University is committed to serve, through sons and daughters of the alma mater, and the daily work of the faculty and staff of the University. The flanges represent the support of friends, churches, foundations, institutions, alumni and the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina. The seals within the flanges represent the history of Campbell University since its inception in 1887 and are the authority under which the University bestows degrees.
Originally an instrument for battle, the mace has a fascinating history in academic ceremonies. In 1589, the first record of a mace being awarded to a university occurred when Queen Elizabeth I visited Oxford University. At a special convocation held in her honor, the students, speaking in Latin, were lavish in their praise and flattery of the Queen, pretending to love her. They assumed she was unfamiliar with Latin. As a gesture of her thanks, Queen Elizabeth I stood and gave an eloquent speech in flawless Latin and presented Oxford with her royal mace.
The second record of a mace being presented to a university was in 1629 when King Charles I presented his royal mace to Cambridge. Thereafter it became customary, in the British Isles and throughout Europe, for the mace to be used at all ceremonial academic occasions. In the United States, the mace came into use during the nineteenth century when academic ceremonies were modeled on European customs and became more elaborate.
The Campbell University Mace, a gift to the University by the Board of Trustees, was designed by John Satterfield of Greenville, North Carolina.
Today's bearer of the Mace is Daniel R. Tilly, Assistant Professor of Law, Director of Advocacy Program.
IDqc Jfclitbcunal flcballtnu The Presidential Medallion and Chain were commissioned by the trustees and designed by John Satterfield of Greenville, North Carolina.
The Chain bears six seals representing the different stages of the academic growth of Campbell University from an academy to a university, along with the seals of the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina and Tunku Abdul Rahman College of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The Medallion represents the design of the University Mace. The University Seal is supported by two flanges and supports the Celtic Cross. The Presidential Medallion and Chain are symbols of the office of the President of Campbell University.
1!;ymu LEAD ON, 0 KING ETERNAL
Lead on, 0 King Eternal The day of march has come; Henceforth in fields of conquest, Thy tents shall be our home; Through days of preparation, Thy grace has made us strong, And Now, 0 King Eternal We lift our battle song.
Lead On, 0 King Eternal We follow not with fears; For gladness breaks like morning, Where'er Thy face appears;
Thy cross is lifted o'er us; We journey in its light, Thy crown awaits the conquest; Lead On, 0 God of Might. Amen
IDlp~ IDrabitinu nf 1\(ub.emi( 1\ttir.e Academic festivals, like today's commencement ceremonies, have their roots in medieval Europe. Medieval institutions of higher learning customarily were operated by monastic orders where students, as well as their instructors, wore monks' habits. In 1321, the Universiry of Coimbra (Portugal) required all bachelors, licentiates (masters), and doctors of theology to wear monastic gowns, the first such recorded injunction. It is still the custom of students and instructors at the ancient universities of the British Isles, Oxford, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, and Sr. Andrews, to wear their gowns to lectures and in their daily affairs.
Originally, the hood was a head covering, the monk's tippet, and was worn by holders of either a master's or a doctoral degree. When caps came into fashion during the fifteenth century, the hoods were draped down the back and ornamented with rich silk or velvet linings and edgings.
The cap was first conferred as a symbol of the master's degree and varied greatly in sryle from institution to institution. Some were stiff, some soft, some square, and still others round. All were decorated with a tuft at the center; today's tassel is an elaboration of that tuft. The mortarboard sryle, generally followed throughout the United States, was borrowed from Oxford Universiry, where the flat-topped cap is customarily worn by those holding the Master of Arts degree.
In the United States, the practice of wearing academic dress dates from 1754, when King George II chartered King's College (now Columbia Universiry) and transferred the academic regulations from the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge. Colonial colleges, however, rejected the scarlet robes of the English institutions in favor of black ones as preferred by Puritan clergy.
During most of the nineteenth century, American colleges and universities had no standard sryle of academic dress. Only rarely did undergraduates wear gowns during commencement exercises. Many faculry wore the regalia of the English institutions where they received their degree, while others wore robes of their own, often eccentric, design. Few faculry wore hoods and mortarboards. These were assumed to be articles of ecclesiastical dress, more appropriate for bishops than professors.
In 1895, a commission of leading American educators, mostly from the Ivy League colleges, was established to devise a standard for academic attire. As a result, black was adopted as the standard for academic robes. Undergraduates were required to wear a simple, unadorned black robe with a mortarboard and black tassel. Candidates for the degree of Master of Arts were required to wear a simple robe with the sleeves cut through exposing the hands and lower arms. Holders of the doctorate were to wear full robes with full sleeves. Panels of velvet down the front and on chevrons appearing on the sleeves gave them a more richly ornamented appearance.
The hoods of those receiving graduate degrees vary in shape and size. The larger, more heavily decorated hood signifies the doctoral degree. The trimming around the edge of the hood varies in color and designates the particular discipline of the degree holder. The colors used in the satin linings are drawn, customarily, from the official colors of the granting institution. The linings in hoods conferred by Campbell Universiry are orange and black.
The American Council on Education established official coiors for academic fields and include: white for arts and letters; scarlet for theology or diviniry; drab for business administration, commerce and accountancy; copper for economics; light blue for education; brown for fine artS; purple for law; lemon for library science; green for medicine; silver gray for oratory; dark blue for philosophy; sage green for physical education; yellow-gold for science; citron for social science; and pink for music.
