HONORARY DEGREE RECIPIENTS
Rebecca M. Blank
Doctor of Laws
Rebecca M. Blank is an internationally respected labor
economist and leading policy expert whose research
examines the interaction of macroeconomics, the labor
market, and social policy programs and their impact
on the lives and well-being of low-income families. An
equally accomplished administrative leader, she has
served in three presidential administrations and led the
University of Wisconsin-Madison as Chancellor for the
last nine years. Dr. Blank earned a B.S. degree (1976) in
economics from the University of Minnesota and a Ph.D.
(1983) in economics from Massachusetts Institute of
Technology. She began her career as a faculty member
at Princeton University and subsequently moved
to Northwestern University where she directed the
Joint Center on Poverty Research and co-directed the
Northwestern/University of Chicago Interdisciplinary
Training Program in Poverty, Race and Underclass
Issues. Before joining the University of Michigan,
Dr. Blank served on the White House Council of
Economic Advisers during the Clinton administration. At the University of Michigan, she led
the transformation of the Institute for Public Policy Studies into the nationally ranked Gerald
R. Ford School of Public Policy, which she led as the inaugural Joan and Sanford Weill Dean
(1999-2007) and Henry Carter Adams Collegiate Professor of Public Policy and Economics
(1999-2008). As dean, Dr. Blank oversaw the construction of Weill Hall as the new home of the
Ford School. She also founded the National Poverty Center and launched new undergraduate
and doctoral programs. Dr. Blank left the university to become a fellow at the Brookings
Institution and soon after joined the Obama Administration as Undersecretary for Economic
Affairs in the Department of Commerce. In 2011, her nomination as Deputy Secretary of
Commerce was unanimously conrmed by the U.S. Senate; she also served for more than a year
as Acting Secretary of Commerce. In 2013, Dr. Blank was named Chancellor of the University
of Wisconsin-Madison where she led a successful effort to increase and diversify undergraduate
enrollments and establish a full-scholarship program to support students from low-income
backgrounds. In the face of budgetary and other pressures, she led a highly successful capital
campaign to ensure the university would remain affordable for all students and retain its world-
class faculty. A prolic scholar, Dr. Blank has written numerous articles and books, including
It Takes a Nation: A New Agenda for Fighting Poverty (1997) which won Princeton’s Richard
A. Lester book award as the outstanding book in labor economics and industrial relations. Her
honors include election as a lifetime national associate of the National Academies of Science.
She is also a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the American Economic
Association, and the Society of Labor Economists. Her outstanding research and scholarship
have been honored by the American Academy of Political and Social Sciences with the Eleanor
Roosevelt Fellowship and the Daniel Patrick Moynihan Prize.
Dr. Blank, you have devoted your life’s work to understanding and addressing poverty in
the United States. With scholarly integrity and compassion, you have advanced the eld of
economics. You answered the call to service from three American presidents, applying your
vast knowledge to inuence public policy on behalf of the underserved. You have made lasting
contributions to the University of Michigan and University of Wisconsin. In honor of your
remarkable achievements, the University of Michigan proudly presents you with this honorary
degree, Doctor of Laws.

HONORARY DEGREE RECIPIENTS
Melissa J. Moore
Doctor of Science
Melissa J. Moore, renowned biochemist and molecular
biologist, is chief scientic ofcer emeritus at Moderna.
Her years of path-breaking research advancing RNA
therapeutics opened the way for the rapid development
of an effective COVID-19 vaccine. When the once-
in-a-century pandemic overtook humankind, she and
her research teams already had developed ways to
engineer messenger-RNA vaccines. The technology
synthesizes proteins found on viral surfaces and
stimulates the body’s immune system, which in turn
produces antibodies that are able to identify and destroy
deadly viruses. Dr. Moore’s basic investigations of
the role of RNA in molecular biological systems and
her use of these discoveries to develop new clinical
applications have protected the lives of hundreds of
millions of individuals across the globe and advanced a
new eld of therapeutics. Dr. Moore grew up in New
Market, Virginia, graduating from a high school that
sent only 20% of its students to college. She earned
her B.S. degrees (1984) in chemistry and biology from William and Mary and a Ph.D. (1989)
in biological chemistry from Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She launched her RNA
research as a postdoctoral fellow under the direction of Nobel Laureate Phillip A. Sharp and
invented a novel method for joining long RNA molecules. In 1994, she joined the faculty of
Brandeis University where she was awarded both a Searle Scholarship and a Packard Fellowship.
In 1997, in recognition of the transformative potential of her biomedical research, Dr. Moore was
named a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator. Dr. Moore later joined the University
of Massachusetts Medical School as professor of biochemistry and pharmacology (2007) and
became a founding co-director of its RNA Therapeutics Institute. In 2015, she joined Moderna’s
scientic advisory board and, the following year, joined Moderna as chief scientic ofcer for
mRNA Platform Research. When, three years later, COVID-19 began its mysterious sweep across
the planet, Dr. Moore was able to lead her teams in the rapid development of a safe and effective
vaccine. Dr. Moore continues to work with, inspire, and mentor RNA biomedical scientists who
pursue new ways to design and deliver mRNA medicines that can protect against other infections
and illnesses. In early 2021, she gave the keynote address to a seminar hosted by the U-M Center
for RNA Biomedicine. She is an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences (2017)
and fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (2019). Throughout her career she
has made it a priority to mentor young scientists and serve as a role model for women working
in STEM elds. In 2011, she received the William C. Rose Award for distinguished mentorship
from the American Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and, in 2021, she received a
Lifetime Achievement Award from the RNA Society.
Dr. Moore, you have advanced medical science with your exemplary RNA research. This research
and your leadership at Moderna contributed to the development of its COVID-19 vaccine, a
medical lifeline considered miraculous by countless grateful individuals in Michigan, across the
country, and around the globe. Young women and men forging careers in essential STEM elds
are inspired by your scientic prowess. For your unwavering commitment to scientic discovery
for the public good, the University of Michigan proudly presents you with this honorary degree,
Doctor of Science.

Vera L. Songwe
Doctor of Laws
Vera L. Songwe is an acclaimed economist, University
of Michigan alumna, and chairwoman of the board of
directors for the Liquidity & Sustainability Facility, a
new nancial entity launched by the United Nations’
Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA). She also
serves as co-chair of the U.N. High-Level Panel on
Climate Finance and is a non-resident senior fellow at
the Brookings Institution’s African Growth Initiative.
Bringing economic prosperity to people living in the
countries across the African continent is both her
passion and her profession. Dr. Songwe is an authority
on scal and monetary policy, economic governance,
and innovative nancing mechanisms for development,
agriculture and energy. From 2017 to 2022, Dr. Songwe
served as under-secretary general at the United Nations
and 9th executive secretary, and rst woman, to lead
UNECA, a regional commission dedicated to advancing
economic cooperation and development within Africa’s
54 member states. She focused UNECA on policies to
achieve macroeconomic stability and led the establishment of the new Liquidity & Sustainability
Facility, which supports the liquidity of foreign currency bonds and incentivizes investments
to boost growth and development and meet the UN’s sustainable development goals for the
continent. Countries that are now able to issue these bonds can make long-overdue investments
in education, infrastructure, and technology so they can secure a future for their citizens in the
global economy. Dr. Songwe came to the University of Michigan from Cameroon earning her
A.B. degree in political science and economics (1990), while working at the Michigan Daily. A
Ph.D. in mathematical economics followed, from the University of Louvain in Belgium (1996)
where she also earned a M.A. in law and economics and a diploma of advanced studies in
economic sciences and politics. She returned to the United States in 2012 and held various senior
positions at the World Bank and the International Finance Corporation. She was also a visiting
scholar at the University of Southern California and at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis.
She founded the African Women Leadership Fund to expand career opportunities for women
and established Africa 2.0, an advocacy initiative that brings young Africans together who are
committed to spurring economic growth in their countries. Her contributions to the development
of the economies of African states have earned her numerous accolades. In 2013, Forbes named
her one of 20 Young Power Women in Africa and in 2014 the Institut Choiseul, a French research
center for the analysis of international economic and political strategies for development,
chose her as one of their African Leaders of Tomorrow (2014). In recognition of her innovative
solutions for structural problems in banking and credit, in 2022 Dr. Songwe was named African
Icon of the Year by the African Bankers Association.
Dr. Songwe, you have long worked to increase prosperity for nearly 1.5 billion men, women
and children living on the African continent. As a graduate of the University of Michigan, your
career exemplies this institution’s values, particularly its mission to challenge the present and
enrich the future, as you are so ably doing, earning along the way international respect and
on-the-ground results. For your economic leadership and advancement of transparency and

ACADEMIC DRESS AND CUSTOM
The colorful gowns and hoods worn by faculty members at commencement and other academic ceremonies represent
the degrees, disciplines, and alma maters of the wearers. The American academic costume tradition, imported from
England, dates to Colonial days.
Gowns Bachelor’s or master’s degree gowns traditionally are black, as are many
doctoral gowns in the United States. Some universities prescribe that their
graduates wear gowns of another solid color such as blue, crimson, or green.
Gowns differ in sleeve cut and trim. For example, the bachelor’s gown has
long, pointed sleeves while the master’s gown has oblong sleeves. Doctoral
gowns, with their distinctive bell-shaped sleeves, feature velvet panels down
the front and around the neck, as well as crossbars of velvet on the sleeves.
Colored trim denotes the eld or discipline in which the degree was earned.
Usually only a single degree from one institution is indicated by a garment.
If more than one degree is held, the gown and hood of the higher or highest
degree usually are worn.
Hoods The hood most precisely describes the wearer’s level of degree earned, the
major eld of learning, and the alma mater. The level of the degree held is
indicated by the hood’s shape and size and the width of its velvet or velveteen
trimming. The bachelor’s, master’s, and doctor’s hoods are 36 inches, 42 inches,
and 48 inches long, respectively. The velvet trim is two, three, and ve inches
wide, with the narrowest being for the bachelor’s hood and the widest for the
doctor’s hood. The color of trim on the hood, as on the gown, identies the
major eld of learning in which the degree was awarded. The hood is lined
with the ofcial colors of the college or university conferring the degree.
Caps Caps vary in style from the traditional black mortarboard to eight-, six-, and
four-corner tams, and Elizabethan-style caps. The mortarboard may be of any
appropriate material, such as cotton, poplin, rayon, or silk, to match the gown.
Velvet is reserved for holders of doctorates.

SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES OF THE UNIVERSITY
In order of year of founding.
College of Literature,
The College of Literature, Science, and the Arts, founded in 1841, was the rst
Science, and the Arts duly constituted college of the University of Michigan. Today, with more
than 15,000 undergraduate and 2,000 graduate students, LSA is the largest
of the university’s schools and colleges, and it is still the heart of the campus.
Distinguished in the humanities since its earliest years, the college became
preeminent in the natural sciences during the early 20th century and went on
to become a world leader in social science research. The college has always
been dedicated to providing a richly diverse liberal arts education that prepares
students to lead fullling lives as responsible citizens within a wide range of
professional careers.
Medical School Since opening its doors in 1850, the Medical School has been a leader in
medical education, patient care, and biomedical research. In addition to its
professional doctor of medicine program, the Medical School offers master’s
and doctoral degrees in the basic medical sciences. The school established the
nation’s rst university-owned and -operated teaching hospital and created the
rst departments of pharmacology and human genetics in the United States. It
also played an important role in the development of the electrocardiogram and
in the development of iodized salt as a goiter preventive. The Medical School
was among the rst major American medical schools to graduate women and
African Americans; today there are more practicing M.D.s from the University
of Michigan than from any other medical school in the United States.
Law School Founded in 1859, the Law School awarded its rst bachelor of laws degrees
in 1860. In 1870, the school became the second in the nation to confer a
law degree on an African American candidate and the rst major law school
to admit a woman. In 1871, one of the school’s graduates became the rst
woman with a law degree to be admitted to the bar. A national law school
from its earliest years, the school’s graduates work in every state of the union
and in more than 73 countries, in business, as practitioners and professors, as
legislators and members of Congress, and as distinguished civil servants and
members of the judiciary.
School of Dentistry Established in 1875, the School of Dentistry rst granted the professional
degree, doctor of dental surgery, the following year. A national leader in the
training of professional dentists and long active in oral and craniofacial research,
the school offers the doctor of dental surgery, master’s degrees, and graduate

research. Its curriculum combines rigorous grounding in contemporary social
science, opportunities to develop expertise in a variety of policy domains,
and practical experience. Graduates work in government and the private and
nonprot sectors, using their knowledge, judgment, and new ideas to solve
social problems, both domestic and international. The school traces its history
to the Institute of Public Administration, established in 1914 as one of the rst
programs in municipal administration in the United States. In 1999, the regents
approved the naming of the school in honor of Gerald R. Ford, the 38th
President of the United States and a 1935 graduate of the university.
College of Engineering Instruction began with a class in civil engineering in 1854. Historically, the
College of Engineering has been a leader in establishing departments in emerging
elds, including metallurgical engineering, naval architecture and marine
engineering, electrical engineering, chemical engineering, aeronautical engineering,

graduates enter careers in business and academia, joining the more than 55,000
who already serve in leadership positions in business, government, and academic
institutions throughout the world.
School for Environment The clear-cutting of Michigan’s densely forested wilderness was well under way
and Sustainability when the University of Michigan began offering courses in forestry in 1881—the
rst university in the United States to do so. The year 1903 saw the creation of
a Department of Forestry, forerunner of today’s School for Environment and
Sustainability (SEAS). The school’s students and faculty organized the famous
1970 Teach-In on the Environment (the prototype of Earth Day), and incubated
the scholarly disciplines of Environmental Justice, Environmental Education,
and Environmental Informatics. From its inception as a forestry school to the
interdisciplinary institution it is today, SEAS has always prepared leaders to
understand and solve the major environmental challenges of the era.
20

theatre, and dance. It fosters a spirit of social responsibility and principled
entrepreneurship, and serves the community and State of Michigan through
public performances, cultural resources, arts education, and outreach programs.
A. Alfred Taubman Michigan offered its rst courses in architecture in 1876. The program became
College of Architecture a department in 1913, and by 1931, the College of Architecture was established
and Urban Planning as a separate entity. During the 1940s, the college was one of the few schools in
the country to consider research a necessary part of architectural education, and
in 1946 it became the rst to introduce a graduate program in urban planning.
The college offers master of architecture, master of urban planning, and master
of urban design degrees; bachelor of science and master of science degrees in
architecture; and doctoral programs in architecture and in urban and regional
planning. In 1999, the college was named in honor of A. Alfred Taubman,
founder and chairman of The Taubman Company, Inc., and a longtime friend,
supporter, and adviser to the college.
School of Nursing The University of Michigan School of Nursing (UMSN) is an international
leader in the advancement of nursing knowledge and strategies to improve
health care. In addition to the four-year BSN program and the second career in
nursing program, UMSN has a robust offering of graduate programs. Students
are prepared to be leaders in advanced clinical practice through our M.S.N. and
post-baccalaureate Doctorate of Nursing Practice (DNP) programs. Students
can also lead and effect change through the M.S.N. or post-masters DNP
programs in systems, populations, and leadership. UMSN’s prestigious Ph.D.
and postdoctoral programs prepare nurse scientists to develop the knowledge
necessary to support and advance nursing practice.
School of Public Health Founded in 1941 and ranked among the country’s top public health schools,
the University of Michigan School of Public Health educates more than 1,000
graduate and undergraduate students each year. With over 170 faculty and
researchers across six departments and numerous collaborative centers and
institutes, the school brings interdisciplinary, innovative solutions to complex

School of Social Work The program in social work began in 1921, and was granted the status of a
school in 1951. Faculty maintain high research productivity while teaching an
innovative curriculum. At the master’s level, the school prepares professional
practitioners for work with individuals, children and their families, the aged,
organizations, and communities. Students may focus their studies in the
elds of substance abuse, mental health, education, child welfare, program
evaluation, and public policy. The joint doctoral program in social work and
social science is one of a kind and prepares students for academic and research
careers. Graduates of both programs are found in leadership positions around
the world. The School of Social Work consistently ranks as one of the best in
the nation.
21
School of Information A formal program began in 1926, when the Department of Library Science
was created in the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts. In 1948,
offerings became entirely graduate and a doctoral program was inaugurated.
Establishment of an independent school, committed to the interdisciplinary
study of information and library principles, came in 1969. In response to
the rapid change brought on by present technology, the school broadened
signicantly further in the 1990s. It now pursues a highly interdisciplinary
approach to educate professionals who will serve as leaders in the information
age. Recognizing this broader mission, the school was renamed the School of
Information in 1996.
Penny W. Stamps The Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design traces its history at the university
School of Art & Design to visual arts education in the late 19th century, awarding its rst degree in
1960, and becoming a University of Michigan school in 1974. In 2002, the
school launched a unique curriculum that prompted the National Association
of Schools of Art and Design to report, “The School of Art & Design and the
University of Michigan have created an opportunity to lead the academic
conversation in art and design in this country.” The school prepares graduates
for a broad range of creative professions through its undergraduate and graduate
programs. Commitment to the integration of art and design, community
engagement, international experience, connections to the academic resources of
the university, interdisciplinary pursuit, and public presentation of creative work
are required of all majors.
School of Kinesiology Kinesiology has been part of the University of Michigan curriculum since the
turn of the 20th century and joined the ranks for the schools and colleges as an
independent unit in 1984. Concentrations have the common thread of human
movement and span a wide range including movement science, physical
education, sport management, and athletic training. Kinesiology prepares
undergraduates for careers as diverse as medicine and physical therapy to
athletic administration, marketing, and law. Master’s and doctoral students
expand their opportunities in higher education, research, health care, public
health or medicine, business, and law.

Freedom of Expression Statement
Thank you for attending this program. The University of Michigan strives to create
a truly open forum, one in which diverse opinions can be expressed and heard.
It is the right of members of the university community, speakers, artists and other
invited guests to express their views and opinions at the university. We will protect
the right of individuals to speak or perform, and the rights of those members of the
University community who wish to hear and communicate with an invited speaker
or artist.
Protesters also have a right to express their opposition to a speaker in appropriate
ways, both within the connes of this building and outside the facility. However,
protesters must not interfere unduly with communication between a speaker or artist
and members of the audience.
If the hosts of this event or university representatives believe that protesters are
interfering unduly with a speaker or performer’s freedom of expression, those
protesters will be warned. If the warnings are not heeded and the interference
continues, then the individuals responsible may be removed from the building.
We reafrm these policies in order to most fully protect the rights of free expression
for speakers, performers and protesters alike, as set forth by our Civil Liberties Board
in our Student Handbook, and in accordance with the U-M Standard Practice Guide;
Regents’ Ordinance Article XII, Section 1; and state statutes.

And yellow the moon on the harvest wain – Hail!

Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!
