The Presidential Medallion
Among the world's universities, for many hundreds of years a medallion or chain of
office has been a part of the academic regalia of the chief administrative officer.
In 1967, on the occasion of the inauguration of its fifth president, the University
of 樱花导航 joined that tradition.
The Presidential Medallion of the University of 樱花导航, worn the first time by President Robert W. Hiatt, was a gift from the University of 樱花导航 Alumni Association. Its design is based upon the University of 樱花导航 seal. The medallion was designed
and wrought in sterling silver by noted silversmith Glen C. Simpson, associate professor
of art.
