REBECCA LEHMANN
Rebecca Lehmann, a resident of Lumberton, will
graduate with highest honors. She will be awarded
the Associate of Science degree.
Rebecca joined the BCC family after graduating
from Rancocas Valley High School. Because of her
academic achievements in high school, she was
awarded a New Jersey STARS Scholarship to
attend Burlington County College.
Here at BCC, Rebecca has consistently earned a
spot on the Dean’s list each semester and she was a
natural to be inducted into the Phi Theta Kappa
Honor Society. Rebecca thoroughly enjoyed the
BCC sponsored bus trips to New York City where
she was inspired by the music of Broadway.
Rebecca pursued her love of the arts outside the
college walls as well, studying voice and piano at the
Perkins Center for the Arts.
Rebecca made use of all of the resources at
Burlington County College, including finding time
for daily workouts using her free student membership at the YMCA. In addition to her studies and
being focused on her health and wellness, Rebecca
also works as a server at Seasons 54 in Cherry Hill
and is a volunteer within her religious organization.
Her hobbies include studying language and cultures
from around the world.
Rebecca was recently awarded the Phi Theta Kappa
scholarship which she will combine with her NJ
STARS II funding in the fall. In September,
Rebecca will continue her studies at Rutgers
Camden School of Business where she will pursue
dual degrees in Accounting and Finance.

Phi Theta Kappa, with more than 1,000 chapters, is the
only acclaimed Honor Society serving associate degree
programs. Since its founding by a group of Missouri twoyear college presidents in 1918, Phi Theta Kappa has
sought to recognize and encourage scholarship among
associate degree students. To achieve this purpose, the
16
Honor Society has developed opportunities for leadership
and service, and has provided an intellectual climate for
continued academic excellence. Additionally, on the occasion of their graduation, members wear the Honor Society
stole. Chi Iota, Burlington County College’s chapter, recognizes its members at this graduation with the gold stole.

Project Graduation is a national Phi Theta Kappa project
that was created at Burlington County College in 1998.
Project Graduation encourages students to bring canned
goods and children’s books to the graduation ceremony.
The items collected are donated to community service
agencies at a time of the year when food banks are often
low and bookshelves are empty. Project Graduation enables
our graduating class to say “thank you” to the community
whose tax dollars helped provide for the students’ education.

The purpose of this award is to honor faculty members for
their commitment to teaching excellence and to their
students. The award is now presented every other year at
the commencement ceremony. The recipient receives a
commemorative plaque and a check in the amount of
$4,000. This award is made possible by a generous grant
from the Christian R. and Mary F. Lindback Foundation.
Faculty are selected for this award on the basis of
outstanding performance in the classroom, innovation in
teaching, and a commitment to their students beyond
the walls of the classroom. This may include a role as an
advisor to a student organization, service as a mentor to
students who are seeking career guidance, or leadership in
the introduction of new technologies or teaching methods
at BCC.

The history of academic dress reaches far back into the
early days of the oldest universities. A statute in 1321
required that all “Doctors, Licentiates and Bachelors” of
the University of Coimbra wear gowns. In England, in the
second half of the fourteenth century, the statutes of certain
colleges forbade “excess in apparel” and prescribed the
wearing of a long gown. Gowns may have been considered
necessary for warmth in the unheated buildings frequented
by medieval scholars. When American colleges and universities desired to adopt some suitable system of academic apparel, it seemed to them best to agree on some definite
system which all might follow. Accordingly, a suitable code
of academic dress for the colleges and universities of the
United States was established.
GOWNS
Pattern:
Pointed sleeves for the bachelor’s degree, long closed sleeves for the master’s degree (slit for the arm) and
round open sleeves for the doctor’s degree.
Color:
Black. Some universities now use their colors.
Trimmings:
None for the bachelor’s or master’s. For the doctor’s degree the gown is to be faced down the front with
black velvet with three bars of the same across the sleeves; or these bars may be of velvet of the color
distinctive of the faculty or subject to which the degree pertains.
For all academic purposes, the colors associated with the different subjects are as follows:
Agriculture - Maize
Music - Pink
Arts, Letters, Humanities - White
Nursing - Apricot
Commerce, Accountancy, Business - Drab
Oratory (Speech) - Silver Gray
Dentistry - Lilac
Pharmacy - Olive Green
Economics - Copper
Philosophy - Dark Blue
Education - Light Blue
Physical Education - Sage Green
Engineering - Orange
Fine Arts, including Architecture - Brown
Public Administration, including Foreign Service Peacock Blue
Forestry - Russet
Public Health - Salmon Pink
Journalism - Crimson
Science - Golden Yellow
Law - Purple
Social Work - Citron
Library Science - Lemon
Theology - Scarlet
Medicine - Green

The color of the lining of the hood designates the university or college by which the degree was granted, e.g.: Columbia,
light blue and white; Harvard, crimson; New York University, violet; Princeton, orange and black; Rutgers, scarlet;
University of Pennsylvania, red and blue; Temple, cherry and white; Colgate, maroon.
