Welcome
Congratulations! Today we celebrate you. I am proud to
join those who supported you on your Temple journey to
reach this milestone.
For many of you, the global pandemic meant that this was
not the college experience you expected. Nevertheless, in
the true Temple spirit of “Perseverance Conquers,” you
found new ways to live and learn, and never faltered in
your determination to pursue your academic goals. The
lessons you learned and your relentless drive served
you well during your time with us and will guide you
throughout your careers and your lives.
Your achievements inspire us. You have taught us much
about how to transcend boundaries of time and space to
communicate, learn, create and build community.
Now it is your turn to make your mark on our world. Do
so with the same energy you have shown us during your
years at Temple. As you ascend to new heights and build a
caring, resourceful, and respectful community for future
generations, please remember to reach back and bring
along your fellow Owls. I end where I began; today we
celebrate you, and wish you well as you chart the future
phases of your life.
Sincerely,
JoAnne A. Epps

Commencement Notes
PROCESSION
The academic procession is a vestige of medievalism in
modern university life. The somber gowns and colorful hoods
are similar to those worn by scholars and church men as early
as the 12th century. The garb had an element of utility. The
robes were warm; the hoods could be drawn up to protect
against dras in unheated buildings.
Traditionally, the hood’s silk lining was the color of the
university, and the color of the bordering velvet indicated
the special area of study, still used today. White represents
arts, letters and humanities; dark blue, philosophy; light
blue, education; yellow, science; brown, fine arts; mustard,
business; purple, law; dark green, medicine; lilac, dentistry;
olive, pharmacy; pink, music; orange, engineering; citron,
social work; and sea foam, podiatry. The color of the tassels
on the “mortar boards” or caps of the candidates for degrees
corresponds to the velvet borders of the hoods.
Gowns representing the bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral
degrees vary in style. The bachelor’s gown has long pointed
sleeves; the master’s gown, longer, narrow closed sleeves,
which extend below the knees; the doctoral gown, with full
bell-shaped sleeves and three bars of velvet, opens in the front
with wide velvet bands in either black or the color indicating
the area of study.
Stoles and sashes represent a student’s aliation with an
organization or group such as student-athletes, study abroad,
international, Greek organizations, and other student service
or academic organizations.
Cords are worn by students who excel academically and
are reserved for Latin Honors, university honors, and other
honors programs and honor societies.
The tassel on the mortar board is customarily worn on the
right side before the degrees are conferred and shied to the
le at the moment the degrees are awarded.
Leaving the Ceremony
To avoid excessive congestion when leaving the Liacouras
Center, guests in sections 102–104 and 112–114 should use
the 15th Street exit; guests in sections 105–111 should exit
through the Main Lobby onto Broad Street.
To ensure everyone’s safety and reduce overcrowding, please
refrain from taking photos near the Broad Street exit of the
Liacouras Center. Here are alternative locations.
1. Liacouras Walk between Norris Street and Polett Walk;
2. Founder’s Garden between 13th Street and Liacouras Walk;
3. Bell Tower on Polett Walk between 12th and 13th streets; and
4. Park Mall between Cecil B. Moore and Montgomery streets.
Honors and Distinction Symbols
THE CHAIN OF OFFICE AND THE MEDALLION
The chain of oce and the medallion are symbols of the oce
worn by the president on ocial and ceremonial occasions.
The front of the medallion bears a replica of the ocial seal of
the college, which includes the university’s name and date of
incorporation, a Greek temple, and the motto “Perseverantia
Vincit” (Perseverance Conquers). The back of the medallion
bears an image of Temple University founder Russell H.
Conwell, along with the words “Knowledge with Honor” and
“Wisdom Through Diligence.” The chain is imprinted with
symbols representing the university’s original schools and
colleges.
THE MACE
Used only on formal academic occasions, the academic mace
symbolizes the authority invested in the president by the
school’s governing body. The mace is an integral part of
the Commencement exercises when students are invested
in degrees by the lawful authority of the university. It is
carried in procession immediately before the president. The
mace serves as a symbol of the academic quest for truth
and wisdom and represents the unity and aspirations of the
collegial community.

Commencement Speaker
Josh Shapiro
GOVERNOR OF PENNSYLVANIA
Josh grew up in Pennsylvania, watching his parents serve their
community — his father was a pediatrician, and his mother was an
educator. Their example inspired Josh to enter into public service, and
from a young age Josh recognized that standing up for others was how he
wanted to spend his career.
Aer marrying his high school sweetheart Lori and welcoming their
first child, Josh returned to his hometown and successfully ran for state
representative. As representative, Josh helped write and pass some of the
toughest ethics laws in state history. His work earned him a reputation as
a rare public servant willing to take on the status quo—“a blast of oxygen
in the smoke-choked back rooms of quid-pro-quo Harrisburg.”
Then, as chair of the Board of Commissioners in Montgomery County,
Pennsylvania’s third-largest, Josh led a fiscal and ethical turnaround. Before he took oce, Montgomery County
had a $10 million budget deficit and an underfunded pension for county employees. Josh put the county back
on solid financial footing, took early steps to combat the heroin epidemic, helped the first LGBTQ+ couples in
Pennsylvania marry, and fired Wall Street money managers to save taxpayers and retirees millions. In 2016, Josh
successfully ran to be Pennsylvania’s attorney general. As attorney general, he has restored integrity to an oce
badly in need of reform and taken on big fights for the people. He has proven to Pennsylvanians he can bring
people together to solve tough problems, and is unafraid to enforce the law without fear or favor.
Josh exposed the Catholic Church’s decades-long cover up of child sexual abuse, identifying 301 predator priests
and thousands of victims—and spurring investigations across the United States. He forced an agreement
between two of the commonwealth’s largest insurance companies, protecting health care access for 2 million
Pennsylvanians, and he has repeatedly gone to court to defend Pennsylvanians’ reproductive rights and a woman’s
right to choose. He has held more than 90 public ocials, Republicans and Democrats alike, accountable for
breaking the law. Working with law enforcement partners at the local, state and federal level, he’s arrested
thousands of mid- and high-level drug dealers while getting thousands of illegal guns o our streets. During the
2020 presidential election, Josh protected the right to vote and defended Pennsylvania’s election result, winning in
court dozens of times before and aer Election Day. He continues to call out the dangerous lies that undermine our
democracy and provide steady, strong, and competent leadership to protect voting rights in Pennsylvania.
In January 2021, Josh was sworn in for his second term as attorney general. He’s arrested more than 6,000 drug
dealers while investigating and suing pharmaceutical companies and the CEOs who knowingly perpetuated the
crisis to line their own pockets. He’s standing up for everyday consumers, seniors who’ve been scammed and
students preyed upon by private lenders by obtaining over $328 million in relief to Pennsylvanians who have been
ripped o. He is leading on criminal justice reform, bringing activists and law enforcement together to launch a
new statewide police misconduct database, taking on employers who steal from Pennsylvania workers.
In November 2022, Josh made history as the highest vote-getter in Pennsylvania gubernatorial history. Alongside
his running mate Austin Davis, Josh is ready to work with every Pennsylvanian to move our commonwealth
forward.
Josh and Lori live in Montgomery County with their three school-age sons, and their eldest daughter attends the
University of Pittsburgh.

DOCTOR OF SCIENCE, HONORIS CAUSA
Charles Tsan-Jian Chen, a citizen of Taiwan, Republic of China, is a world
leader and entrepreneur in the biotech industry with more than four
decades of experiences and accomplishments in developing, producing and
implementing forefront vaccine and diagnostic technologies benefiting
human and animal health. He is the founder and CEO of the publicly listed
Medigen Vaccine Biologics Corp. and the privately owned Sweitzer Biotech
Co. of Taiwan. He is also a major investor of Taiwan Bio Therapeutics Inc.,
a company dedicated to regenerative medicine and cell therapy.
Medigen Vaccine Biologics Corp, (MVC), in collaboration with the U.S.
National Institute of Health and Dynavax Co. of California, successfully
developed a COVID-19 subunit vaccine that has been received by millions
of people in Taiwan and several other countries around the world.
The MVC COVID-19 vaccine, because of its excellent immunogenicity,
safety profile and stability at elevated temperatures, is the first vaccine that was selected by the World Health
Organization’s Solidarity Program for worldwide clinical trial and applications. In addition to COVID-19 and
human influenza, MVC has also successfully developed the first vaccine for 2-month-old babies against EV71, a
virus that infects millions of toddlers worldwide each year.
Schweitzer Biotech Co. has focused on the prevention of animal diseases, especially those aecting livestock,
poultry and aquatic animals. It is a world leader in the development of in-field PCR-based diagnostic technologies
and advanced animal vaccines.
Mr. Chen received his BS degree in psychology from National Taiwan University in 1974. He has since self-taught
to become an expert in vaccine and diagnostic technologies for human and animal diseases. He has co-authored
dozens of scholarly papers in top journals such as The Lancet and Clinical Infectious Diseases. In 2015, he was
appointed a Distinguished Adjunct Professor of Biotechnology in the Biology Department of Temple University. He
was a Chair Professor of Industry-Academia Collaboration at National Yangming Chiaotung University, one of the
top universities in Taiwan.
In addition to being a board member of the Fu-Jen Catholic University Hospital in Taiwan, he is also the founding
charter president of the Taipei Mingde Rotary Club, and in 1997–1998 he was elected the deputy governor of
District 3480 of the International Rotary Club.
The honorary degree will be conferred at the College of Science and Technology ceremony on May 12, 2023
at 1:30 p.m. in the Liacouras Center.
TEMPLE UNIVERSITY HONORARY DEGREE RECIPIENTS 7
Honorary Degree Recipient
Joyce K. Salzberg, CLA ’69, CPH ’79
DOCTOR OF HUMANE LETTERS, HONORIS CAUSA
As a first-generation college graduate, social worker, entrepreneur
and philanthropist, Joyce K. Salzberg embodies Temple’s mission of
opportunity, engagement and discovery. Her work has enabled hundreds
of thousands of families to live meaningfully through developmental
interventions and therapy services.
Ms. Salzberg grew up in the Logan neighborhood of Philadelphia. Her
father was a bus mechanic and her mother raised her family. She majored
in Religion at Temple University and came back for her Masters in
Social Work.
Aer 13 years (1979-1992) at the United Cerebral Palsy of North Jersey,
Inc, Joyce K. Salzberg co-founded Sunny Days. At the time, this was one of
the first early intervention service organizations that was privately owned
with a model focused on direct-to-consumer services. She was a pioneer to diagnosis and provided therapy in the
safe and comforting environment of a client’s home. Previous to this, most intervention services were scheduled
and conducted at a treatment center, a foreign environment which can be averse to proper treatment. Under Ms.
Salzberg’s leadership, Sunny Days has grown to be one of the nation’s largest early intervention and autism service
providers with over one million sessions per year to developmentally delayed children and adults. Notably, Sunny
Days is a rare example of a social services business reaching national scale without the investment / oversite of
private equity, allowing Joyce to remain client-centric without the demands of other financial stakeholders.
Ms. Salzberg chairs New Jersey’s State Interagency Coordinating Council (SICC). The SICC creates a forum for the
entire early intervention community to share ideas and assist in improving the services oered to young children
with disabilities.
Beyond her professional focus and personal commitment to Temple, she is a member of C200, a powerful
community of the most successful women in business, united in the purpose of helping advance women’s
leadership in business.
Ms. Salzberg has been a consistent volunteer and supporter of her alma mater. As a dual Owl, she won the
Gallery of Success in 2012 and was admitted into the League for Entrepreneurial Women of Temple University
Hall of Fame two years later. In 2013, she joined CLA’s Board of Visitors. Aer CLA’s Board of Visitors adopted
committees to align with its strategic plan, Ms. Salzberg became chair of its professional development committee
and has provided strategic planning insights and advising to the Dean on both the programmatic scope and
benchmarks for success.
Beyond her advisory and philanthropy, she lectures on campus whenever given the opportunity. She most oen
encourages students to understand how their skills, values and interests can align with meaningful careers. She
is quick to note the importance of understanding one’s ability to make a social impact through the private,
for-profit sector.
The honorary degree will be conferred at the College of Liberal Arts undergraduate ceremony on May 10, 2023
at 9:30 a.m. in the Liacouras Center.
