JSU Spring 2007 Graduation Candidates
and Commencement Ceremony

Jacksonville State University’s 2007 Spring commencement will be held Friday, April 27 at 6:30 p.m. in Paul Snow Stadium. The faculty will lead the processional into Paul Snow Stadium where the candidates will be seated in their assigned seats. Candidates will be announced individually, photographed, and presented with a JSU diploma while crossing the stage. President Meehan will confer the degrees.

The conferring of degrees is a special moment that includes moving the tassel on the mortarboard from right to left. To ensure that all graduates, the last to cross the stage as well as the first, are appropriately recognized, guests are asked to remain seated throughout the ceremony. After the ceremony, President Meehan will be available to reenact the awarding of diplomas for family photographs.  So that graduates and members of the audience may clearly view the proceedings, we ask that close up photographs and taping be delayed until after the ceremony.

Ron Sparks, Alabama's Commissioner of Agriculture and Industries, will deliver the commencement address. Born and raised in Fort Payne, Alabama, Ron Sparks has served as Alabama’s since January 2003. He is honored and distinguished to serve as one of Alabama’s youngest Commissioners of Agriculture and Industries.

By building a management team of some of the state’s brightest men and women, Sparks has led the Department of Agriculture and Industries into a new era. In his Board of Registrar appointments, for example, Sparks was the only appointing authority to ensure that his appointments resembled the diversity of Alabama citizens.

Sparks has convened with national and international leaders, including Cuban President Fidel Castro, to pioneer new markets for Alabama’s farmers. He has aggressively implemented new programs within the department such as the Farm to School program and oversaw the construction of two new state diagnostic labs in Auburn and Elba.

In the post-9/11 era, Sparks has ensured that his department modernizes to protect Alabamians from new threats. He has long been an advocate of Country of Origin Labeling and consumer protection, and has adapted this focus to meet new demands generated by the War on Terror. Sparks and his staff have worked diligently to help bring perpetrators of agriculture crimes to justice.

JSU welcomes the candidate’s family and friends to the commencement ceremony. Ample seating is available at Paul Snow Stadium. Parking is available on the north, east, and west sides of the stadium. Handicapped parking is available on the north side of the stadium. Ample handicapped and wheelchair seating is available at Gate C in the stadium. Sign language interpreting will be provided on the stage.

The ceremony will be televised live on WJXS-TV24 (local Cable One Channel 9). Other cable companies with TV 24 include Cable One (Anniston, Oxford, Munford, Pell City, and Jacksonville); Charter (Piedmont, Southside and Heflin); Leesburg Cable; Collinsville Cable; Lookout Cable (Gaylesville); and Cherokee Co. Cable (Centre). Family and friends can also view the graduation ceremony live from their home computers. There will be a link available on the JSU web site: www.jsu.edu.  The ceremony will be archived for two weeks after commencement.

In the event the weather prevents an outdoor rehearsal or exercise, the commencement activity will be held in the Mathews Coliseum. The commencement will remain at 6:30 p.m. with the location changed to the Mathews Coliseum. Local radio stations and campus security will announce any decision to locate the commencement activity in the Mathews Coliseum should weather become a factor. Call the Graduation Hotline, 782-8197, for changes in the rehearsal or ceremony location

The top seven graduates all graduate with a perfect 4.0 grade point average (GPA).  These seven distinguished graduates are Erika Bell Brown, of Guntersville, AL; Rebecca Jane Gossett, of Piedmont, AL; Rachel Elise Hulsey, of Fruithurst, AL; Carla Gaskin Ingle, of Fort Payne, AL; Monica Shonta Poole, of Lineville, AL; Emily Cara Shierling, of Munford, AL; and Sharon E. White, of Ashville, AL

Ms. Brown receives the Bachelor of Science degree (BS) with a major in Marketing; Ms. Gossett, the Bachlor of Science degree in Education (BSE) with a major in Elementary Education; Ms. Hulsey, the Bachelor of Science (BS) degree with a major in Psychology and Criminal Justice; Ms. Ingle, the Bachelor of Social Work degree (BSW) with a major in Social Work; Ms. Poole, the Bachelor of Social Work degree (BSW) with a major in Social Work; Ms. Shierling, the Bachlor of Science degree in Education (BSE) with a major in Elementary Education; and Ms. White, the Bachlor of Science degree in Education (BSE) with a major in Elementary Education.

The awarding of honors to graduates by JSU is presented as follows:  The designation "cum laude" will be engrossed upon the diplomas of graduating students who obtain a grade point average of 3.5 to 3.69 quality points on hours attempted; "magna cum laude," for a grade point average of 3.7 to 3.89; and "summa cum laude," for a grade point average of 3.9 to 4.0.  The designation "with special honors in {major}" will be engrossed upon the diplomas of those who maintain an average of 3.5 in their major field and 3.25 overall.  (Only undergraduate students are eligible for Latin or special honors.)

Students receiving degrees are listed by program level of study completed—Undergraduate/Graduate—and also geographically by hometown/county for Alabama’s in-state students, by state and city for out-of state students, and finally by country for foreign students.  Graduates of JSU’s Spring 2007 Semester are listed below.

Eligibility for honors will be determined at the conclusion of the degree program; therefore, honors published in the commencement program do not include the last semester of enrollment.
