COMMENCEMENT 2010 3

Welcome from the President

Welcome to the 154th Commencement exercises of Tufts University. We are grateful that you have joined us for this, the most important occasion of the academic year.

Today, we recognize the accomplishments of more than 2,500 graduates. They come to the Hill this morning after courses of study in seven schools on three Massachusetts campuses. Some have also studied or conducted research overseas, possibly in one of the several Tufts programs in Africa, Asia, Europe, and South America. Many have worked in community, neighborhood, and public service organizations as an integral part of their education. Our graduates are themselves as diverse as the rigorous academic programs in which they have excelled. They came to Tufts from around the world, and we are proud that they will carry what they have learned here to communities far and wide.

This year's distinguished Commencement speaker is a deeply beloved and respected member of our university community. In the decades since Professor Sol Gittleman joined the Tufts faculty in 1964, he has left an indelible imprint on the education of thousands of our graduates. He has also had a profound influence on the institutional development of Tufts, as the longest-serving Provost in American higher education. I know that his address will be a very special occasion: the wisdom and passion that Sol imparts to all his students are legendary.

The university will award honorary doctorates this morning to Professor Gittleman and four other distinguished honorees in recognition of their achievements in their chosen fields. Two of them are alumni who stand as models for their fellow graduates. We will also recognize the thirteen members of the faculty who have been named emeritus professors this year in recognition of their contributions to the life of the university; together, they have dedicated a remarkable total of 458 years of service to Tufts.

Tufts College opened its doors in 1854. The first Commencement at which degrees were conferred took place on July 8, 1857, when three candidates were graduated. In those early years, students were assigned parts at Commencement in accordance with their class rank, and addresses were delivered in Latin. Much has changed here since then, but a great university is still defined by its people. Today's ceremonies are the culmination of years of hard work by talented, dedicated students. Thank you for all the support you have given them during their studies and please join me in congratulating all of them on a job well done.

Sincerely,

Lawrence S. Bacow President

University Commencement

Tuftonia's Day

Elliot Wright Hayes, A'l6

Steady and true, rush along, Brown and Blue. Raise a mighty score today. Fearless tear down the field and never yield! Brown and Blue, Brown and Blue for aye! Hammer them hard, boys, and break through their guard. That is old Tuftonia's way. And our glorious banner once again will wave o'er

Tuftonia's Day. , T-U-F-T-S, T-U-F-T-S, Hurrah! Hurrah! for dear old Brown

and Blue!

Refrain: Up on the Hill tonight all will be gay. Victorious in the fight, we'll raise the standard of dear old

Tufts to glory! Pile up a mighty score. It's bound to soar. Now one goal more! Nothing can stop us; it's Tuftonia's Day.

Push it right through, boys, we're rooting for you! Now then smash their guard once more. See, they are losing fast, their line can't last! Brown and Blue, boys, forevermore. Right through the hole, lads, and make it a goal in the good old

fashioned way. And we'll all turn out with a lusty shout to honor Tuftonia's Day. T-U-F-T-S, T-U-F-T-S, Hurrah! Hurrah! for dear old Brown and

Blue!

Refrain:

Academic Regalia

Traditional academic regalia has been worn by the Tufts faculty since the Commencement of 1906. The gown for the Bachelor's degree has pointed sleeves and is designed to be worn closed. The Master's gown has elbow-length, pointed sleeves; the Doctor's gown has bell-shaped sleeves; both may be worn open or closed. The Doctor's gown is faced, and the sleeves are trimmed with velvet. By its color and arrangement, the hood worn with the gown indicates the wearer's highest advanced degree, the field in which it was awarded, and the school from which it came. The lining of the hood carries the school's colors, brown and blue in the case of Tufts. The velvet edging on the hood, wider for the Doctor's degree than for the Master's degree, signifies by its color the field

Dear Alma Mater

We con beside they knee, Dear Alma Mater, Earth's book of mystery, Dear Alma Mater, We track the storied past, Dear Alma Mater, Over plains of!earning vast, Dear Alma Mater, Speed on thy sunlit way, Dear Alma Mater, We vow new faith today, Dear Alma Mater! May glory light thy name, Dear Alma Mater, All thy children sing thy fame, Dear Alma Mater, for aye!

in which the degree was designated. Master of Science and Doctor of Science hoods are trimmed in yellow; Engineers in orange; Medicine in green; Dental Medicine in lilac; Doctor of Philosophy in blue; and Veterinary Medicine in grey. The mortarboard or Oxford-type cap is the one usually worn, but of late, the soft cap, which resembles an oversized beret, has come into favor because of its comfort. Tassels, other than the universally accepted black, may indicate by the various colors the field oflearning in which the degree is earned, while the gold tassel generally signifies a doctoral degree. Many foreign universities show great diversity, following traditions that extend back for centuries.

COMMENCEMENT 2010 13


The idea started small, and grew. It began as a conversation with some students at a professor's home in 1956. The open-ended question that Professor"'Franklin Patterson posed to the gathered students concerned how Tufts University might be improved. In response, RICHARD DORSAY, A60, M64, and his friends realized that there was then no real connection between the campus and its surrounding communities, and they started taking steps to bridge this stubborn gap.

The group began volunteering at Waltham State Mental Hospital, with each student paired with a different child at the facility. On weekends students would take the kids out, venturing to a nearby bowling alley or attending a Tufts football game. Dorsay still has fond memories of spending time with Carol, the young girl with whom he was paired.

In 1958, the Leonard Carmichael Society-named for a former Tufts president-was officially recognized by the university. The idea of service to others gradually caught fire within the student body. Now, a half century later, the club that Dorsay founded is the largest student-run organization on campus, with more than one thousand volunteers engaged in forty service programs, from visiting homeless shelters to raising cancer awareness to tutoring schoolchildren, through an array of neighboring towns.

Dorsay has shown the same spirit of generosity throughout his life that he did as an undergraduate.

After serving as the Leonard Carmichael Society's first president, he entered Tufts Medical School, where he graduated with honors in research and went on to become a radiologist. Dorsay recently retired from Kaiser Hospital-South San Francisco, where for fifteen years he had served as chief of radiology.

Teaching has always been important to this New York City native. He taught for twenty-five years at the University of California San Francisco Medical School-where he earned distinction as the Outstanding Clinical Teacher in Radiology-and at Stanford Medical School, as well as serving as a longtime volunteer for the American Cancer Society, teaching women breast selfexamination and answering their questions about mammography. Under the sponsorship of Project Hope, he also taught radiology to physicians in Guatemala in 1978 and 2003.

Dorsay's spiritual life similarly reflects his inborn desire to reach out in service to others. He volunteered for a decade in his synagogue as cochair of the Caring Committee, which provides meals to people who are in mourning or ill and arranges transportation to medical facilities for those in need. A Rotarian, Dorsay serves as the international chairman of the San Jose East Evergreen Rotary Club. Since early 2002, Dorsay has been a certified Enneagram teacher-a system that uses nine personality profiles to help people understand themselves and others better-both in this country and abroad, in an effort to defuse tensions in public high schools.

He and his wife, Dorothy (Kurzrock), have also been support-ing a primary school in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, for the past seven years. "My wife and I have been able to raise money to build over six classrooms in Zimbabwe and provide 1,500 books, as well as several hundred desks and chairs, to children who were either sitting outside or sitting on the floor of a classroom previously," he relates.

14 TUFTS UNIVERSITY

The bright thread of hope exhibited in Africa runs straight back to those early days at Tufts, where the seeds of altruism first took root. "My job is to do more than be a doctor and make money," Dorsay suggests. "Instead, my job is to create acts of kindness and love in the world. My experience with the Leonard Carmichael Society has influenced me to do good deeds for the rest of my life."

He will receive an honorary Doctor of Public Service degree.

Few at Tufts over the past half-century have escaped the influence of SOL GITTLEMAN. As a University Professor, vice president, provost, teacher of language and literature, scholar and devotee of the national pastime, respected and beloved mentor, advisor, and colleague, Gittleman has epitomized the spirit and conscience, not only of this university, but of all that is worthwhile in higher education.

"I teach because I feel that I have something terribly important to communicate," he once wrote, "because I believe in what I am doing, because I am still scared to death every time I walk into a classroom, because I think I can make a difference in peoples' lives, and because I still think it is the greatest life in the world."

Gittleman has said that when he was growing up in New Jersey, the child of uneducated Russian-Jewish immigrant parents, he was an unlikely candidate for a successful career in academia. "At first sight, I had no business making a life in American higher education," Gittleman wrote. "But, when you give the idea a moment's thought, you realize that only in America do the children of immigrants become professors."

He attended public schools in Hoboken, New Jersey, and went on to receive a bachelor's degree from Drew University and graduate degrees from Columbia University and the University of Michigan.

Gittleman and his wife, Robyn Singer Gittleman, the associate · dean for undergraduate education and director of the Experimen

tal College, arrived at Tufts in 1964, in the vanguard of an enthusiastic generation of faculty who were bringing a spark of diversity and passion for scholarship to the campus. He taught German and Judaic studies and was chair of what was then known as the German and Russian Department. But his reputation as a teacher spread far beyond his discipline: his Yiddish Literature course has for years been among the most popular at Tufts, and a common piece of advice from alumni and upperclassmen for newly admitted undergraduates is to "take a class with Sol."

As Gittleman wrote in his 2004 book, An Entrepreneurial University: The Transformation of Tufts, 1976-2002, the university's direction took a dramatic turn after the arrival of President Jean Mayer in 1976. Mayer appointed Gittleman as provost in 1981-"he thought I'd stay out of his way," Gittleman recalled years later. But Gittleman went on to help shape Tufts as an ambitious academic institution and research powerhouse, serving as provost until 2002, the longest tenure for any provost at an American university.

Gittleman is now the Alice and Nathan Gantcher University Professor, one of three university professors at Tufts. He has received two Fulbright awards, the Harbison Prize of the Danforth Foundation for Outstanding Teaching, and a citation


as Professor of the Year from the Council for Advancement and Support ofEducation. He is the recipient of the 2009 Robert J. McKenna Award from the New England Board of Higher Education and holds honorary degrees from four universities.

Gittleman has done wide-ranging scholarly work on German cultural and intellectual history, Yiddish and Jewish-American literature, American immigration, comparative religion, and the history of baseball. His most recent book is Reynolds, Raschi, and Lopat: New York's Big Three and the Great Yankee Dynasty of 1949-1953. In 2002, he threw out the first pitch for a Red Sox game at Fenway Park. "As you watch the evolution of American values in the twentieth century, baseball is a metaphor for almost all the social, political, and historic change that went on in the last one hundred years," he has said.

Gittleman will receive an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree.

KRISTINA M. JOHNSON, an electrical engineer, is the Under Secretary of Energy in the United States Department of Energy. Named to the position by President Barack Obama in March 2009, she is responsible for a $10.4 billion portfolio that includes renewable energy, fossil energy, nuclear energy, energy efficiency and environmental cleanup of the cold war legacy.

She has had a long career in research and academia and has also cofounded several companies, including ColorLink, and SouthEast Techinventures. She holds 129 U.S. and international patents, has won numerous awards in her field, and written dozens of articles. Her inventions include pioneering work on liquid crystal on silicon microdisplays, which are tiny computer-like screens, and their integration into pattern recognition systems for cancer screening, object tracking, document processing, high-definition television, and 3D projection displays.

Johnson grew up in Colorado in a family where science was a tradition: her father and grandfather were both engineers. Her mother, she says, taught her that education "was the way forward," and her father gave her books on electricity and presented her with her first slide rule. Still, she didn't think of pursuing a career in research until she won her city and state science fairs and placed second in the International Science Fair in 1975 for a project that used holography to map the growth of a fungus called Phycomyces.

Johnson studied electrical engineering as an undergraduate at Stanford University, graduating with distinction. While working as an electrical engineer in the Silicon Valley, she played on the field hockey team and founded the Stanford lacrosse team, both varsity sports. She aspired to play at the national level, a dream that was interrupted when she was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma.

After obtaining master's and doctoral degrees in electrical engineering from Stanford, she was a NATO postdoctoral fellow at Trinity College, Dublin and played cricket for County Lein-ster. From 1985 to 1999, Johnson was a professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Colorado at Boulder, earning tenure in less than five years. During that time she worked

on a children's television series about the physics of light and cofounded the National Science Foundation Engineering Research Center for Optoelectronic Computing Systems, funded with a $25 million grant-the largest the university had received up to that time.

In 1999, she was appointed professor and dean of the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University, and in 2007 was named provost and senior vice president for academic affairs at Johns Hopkins University, a position she held until her appointment in 2009 to the Department of Energy.

Johnson has said that one of her strengths has been to bring together experts from a wide range of disciplines to attack important problems from different perspectives. While at the University of Colorado, for example, she involved engineers, mathematicians, physicists, chemists, engineers and psychologists to make computers more intuitive, faster and more connected. As a dean at Duke, she helped set up cross-disciplinary collaborations in photonics, bioengineering, energy, and the environment.

In 2008, Johnson was the first woman to receive the John Fritz Medal, widely considered the highest award in the engineering profession. In 2003 she was inducted into the Women in Technology International Hall of Fame, in 2004 she won the Achievement Award of the Society of Women Engineers, and in 2010 she received the Anita Borg Women of Vision Award.

She has long encouraged science and engineering education, especially for women, and has spoken on behalf of women and minorities in science and engineering. In testimony before Congress in 2002, she said, "Simply put, unless we bring more women and minorities into science and engineering fields, we will not have the intellectual capital to address the major economic, environmental, health, and security issues facing our nation. Developing our underutilized human resources can be our competitive advantage."

Tufts will award her an honorary Doctor of Science degree.

After a forty-year career with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, ANN HOBSON PILOT retired late last year as principal harpist. She is the first and only African-American woman to be appointed to the orchestra.

In addition to being a pioneer, she leaves a legacy of elegant playing, fine musicianship, and hard work. Mark Volpe, the BSO's managing director, told the Boston Globe at her retirement, "No one thinks of Ann Hobson Pilot as an African-American harp player. They think of her as the great harp player of her time."

One of her colleagues, BSO bass player James Orleans, once paid tribute to her, noting, "Anyone who has played Mahler's 5th Symphony in the BSO knows that it was not the guys with the batons who conducted the Adagietto, it was Ann. Her sense of rhythmic proportion and pacing is unparalleled."

Hobson Pilot grew up in Philadelphia, ancther mother and older sister both played piano. At the age of fourteen, after a background in piano playing, she decided to take harp lessons when there were no other instruments available at school.

She studied at the Cleveland Institute of Music and became



substitute second harp with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra and then principal harpist for the National Symphony Orchestra. She joined the Bostorr Symphony Orchestra as second harp in 1969 and was named principal harp in 1980.

She has also had an extensive solo career, performing with many American orchestras as well as with orchestras in Europe, Haiti, and New Zealand. In 1998 PBS aired a documentary, Ann Hobson Pilot: A Musical Journey, about her trip to Africa, where first she performed as a soloist with the National Symphony of Johannesburg and then traveled to the bush country in Namibia to research the roots of the harp. A new half-hour documentary is being produced which will tell the story of her life in music.

Hobson Pilot has recorded works on several labels. In 1999 she recorded a CD with the London Symphony Orchestra featuring a harp concerto she commissioned by the American composer Kevin Kaska. She has insisted on having her picture on the cover of compact discs she has recorded so that African-American children could see that people who looked like them perform classical music.

Hobson Pilot has been a faculty member at the New England Conservatory, Boston University's College of Fine Arts, the Tanglewood Music Center, and the Boston University Tanglewood Institute. She is also a member of the contemporary music ensemble Collage, and has performed with the Boston Symphony Orchestra Chamber Players and at many music festivals, including the Marlboro Music Festival and the Newport Music Festival. In February 2010 the Boston Musicians' Association presented Hobson Pilot with its Lifetime Achievement Award.

After the 2009 Tanglewood season and her official retirement, she performed as soloist for the opening of the BSO and the Carnegie Hall seasons with the premiere of On Willows and Birches, a concerto for harp and orchestra written for her by John Williams. The orchestra paid tribute to her in October by dedicating a concert in her honor, in which she was the featured soloist in several works, including the concerto by Williams.

Tufts will award Hobson Pilot an honorary Doctor of Music degree.

For GORDON S. WOOD, ASS, history teaches one thing above all: wisdom. That might be the most important lesson he has imparted in his numerous prize-winning books and in the classroom, he says. The Alva 0. Way University Professor Emeritus at Brown University, Wood has written that history tells us "how we might live in the world."

Born in Concord, Massachusetts, it was perhaps fitting that Wood was drawn to the study of early American history. After receiving his bachelor's degree summa cum laude from Tufts University, he spent three years in the U.S. Air Force. He soon returned to academia, earning an A.M. and Ph.D. from Harvard University.

After brief stints on the faculties at William and Mary, Harvard, and the University of Michigan, in 1969 he was appointed an associate professor at Brown University, where he taught history for nearly forty years. He specialized in the history of the Ameri-

can Revolution and its critical importance to the development of American society. From a nation founded by aristocrats, he says, the democratic impulse led to the creation of an entirely new political reality, one in which common men and women could easily rise to power.

As an historian, Wood writes with academic authority for popular audiences. His book The Radicalism of the American Revolution won the 1993 Pulitzer Prize for History, and his most recent work, Empire of Liberty: A History of the Early Republic, 1789-1815, published last year by Oxford University Press, won the 2010 American Publishers Association Prize for History and Biography, and the American History Book Prize from the NewYork Historical Society. His first book, The Creation of the American Republic, 1776-1787, won the Bancroft Prize and the John H. Dunning Prize in 1970. For many years, he has also written lengthy reviews for The New York Review of Books and The New Republic, and collected some of those pieces in the 2008 book The Purpose of the Past.

"Most people think of history as just dealing with the past," Wood said in a 2008 interview with C-SPAN. But "when you have a historical sense, you see reality differently. It opens a whole new dimension on the world." Wood argues that history doesn't teach what he calls "little lessons." Instead, he says, "it teaches one big lesson: that nothing really works out ... as the participants who launched it expected."

Wood is careful not to impose present knowledge on his historical subjects, nor judge them solely by current standards. "Our goal as critical historians is to recover the past as accurately as possible," he says. "Good history gives us a tragic view of life, that is, not a pessimistic view, but a sense of the limitations oflife, that not everything is possible, and few of us understand the situation we are in."

History that is not read by large numbers of people is not fulfilling its responsibilities, Wood,has said, and at times he has taken fellow historians to task for not considering readers outside of the academy. His own books, by contrast, are widely read, garnering enthusiastic reviews from critics and readers alike.

Wood is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the American Philosophical Society. He was a trustee of Tufts University from 1992 to 2002 and of Colonial Williamsburg from 1993 to 2006.

And although he recently became an emeritus professor, he notes, "I've retired from teaching, but not from history."

Tufts will award Wood an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree.

A Modern Hippocratic Oath

By Louis Lasagna, M.D., Dean Emeritus, Sadder School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences

I swear to fulfill, to the best of my ability and judgment, this covenant:

I will respect the hard-won scientific gains of those physicians in whose steps I walk, and gladly share such knowledge as is mine with those who are to follow.

I will apply, for the benefit of the sick, all measures, which are required, avoiding those twin traps of over treatment and therapeutic nihilism.

I will remember that there is art to medicine as well as Science and that warmth, sympathy, and understanding may outweigh the surgeon's knife or the chemist's drug.

I will not be ashamed to say, "I know not," nor will I fail to call in my colleagues when the skills of another are needed for a patient's recovery.

I will respect the privacy of my patients, for their problems are not disclosed to me that the world may know. Most especially must I tread with care in matters of life and death.

If it is given to me to save a life, all thanks. But it may also be within my power to take a life; this awesome responsibility must be faced with great humbleness and awareness of my own frailty. Above all, I must not play at God.

I will remember that I do not treat a fever chart, or a cancerous growth, but a sick human being, whose illness may affect the person's family and economic stability. My responsibility includes these related problems, ifl am to care adequately for the sick.

I will prevent disease whenever I can, for prevention is preferable to cure.

I will remember that I remain a member of society, with special obligations to all my fellow human beings, those sound of mind and body, as well as the infirm.

Ifl do not violate this oath, may I enjoy life and art, respected while I live and remembered with affection thereafter.

May I always act so as to preserve the finest traditions of my calling and may I long experience the joy of healing those who seek my help.

Note to spectators: Arrangements have been made for a professional photographer to take pictures of the degree recipient for both receipt of the diploma and the formal doctoral hooding. It is hoped that this will minimize the need for other picture-taking. Family members and friends of the degree recipients who still want to take photographs during the Commencement ceremony, and press photographers, are asked to avoid blocking the view of the professional photographer and others seated in the audience.

I will practice dentistry in an ethical and professional manner.

I will hold in confidence all matters related to them.

I will not hesitate to call upon my colleagues when their knowledge and skills are needed.

I will make every effort to maintain, contribute to, and enhance the quality of the dental profession.
