HONORARY DEGREE RECIPIENT

Kurt Russell, a dedicated educator and community leader from Oberlin, Ohio, will receive Cleveland State University’s Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters for Spring 2026.

Russell, the youngest of three sons of the late Jerry Sr. and Retta Russell, is a 1994 graduate of the College of Wooster, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in history with a minor in Black studies. He later earned a master’s degree in education, focusing on curriculum and instruction, from Ashland University.

A social studies teacher and high school basketball coach at Oberlin High School, Russell was named Ohio’s 2022 Teacher of the Year. He also received National Teacher of the Year honors, selected from a competitive pool of 55 educators representing 49 states, the District of Columbia, U.S. territories and the Department of Defense Education Activity.

Russell’s accolades include recognition from the Oberlin Heritage Center in 2009 and the Oberlin chapter of the NAACP in 2019. He received the Glass Apple Award during a White House ceremony hosted by President Joe Biden and first lady Dr. Jill Biden and was later invited back as a guest for a holiday dinner.

With 29 years in the classroom, Russell credits a middle school math teacher for sparking his lifelong passion for education. He advocates for a diverse teaching workforce and an inclusive curriculum that empowers every student.

He continues to lead the creation of innovative curricula that connect students to the nation’s cultural and political history, promoting an integrated approach that highlights the contributions of all Americans.

Beyond the classroom, Russell speaks across the country at schools and universities, inspiring educators and students alike. His presentations blend storytelling with practical strategies, encouraging audiences to make a positive impact in their communities.

Russell will be conferred the Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters in the afternoon ceremony. Congratulations to Kurt Russell for his remarkable dedication to teaching, service, and shaping the next generation of leaders.

ACADEMIC REGALIA

THE UNIVERSITY MACE

The Cleveland State University mace is a memorial to Ethel A. Gould and was presented to the University by her daughter, Betty, who was the wife of Dr. Walter B. Waetjen, president of the University from 1973–1988. The mace was first used in 1978 at ceremonies commemorating the opening of the College of Law building and honoring H.R.H. Prince Charles, Prince of Wales. Originally a part of chivalric armor, the mace has become a traditional symbol of authority carried in ceremonial processions.

THE CAP

The academic cap is a sign of the freedom of scholarship and endows the wearer with new scholarship responsibilities and dignities. Old poetry suggests that the cap of scholarship is square to symbolize a book, although some authorities claim that the mortar board is the symbol of masons, a privileged guild.

THE GOWN

The flowing gown comes from the 12th century. It has become symbolic of the democracy of scholarship, for it completely covers any dress of rank or social standing underneath. It is black for all degrees. The bachelor gowns are untrimmed. The master gowns are faced with velvet in front and the doctoral gown includes three bars of velvet across the sleeves in the color distinctive of the faculty or discipline to which the degree pertains.

THE HOOD

The hood is an inverted shield with one or more chevrons of a secondary color on the background of the primary color of the college. The color of the facing of the hood denotes the discipline represented by the degree; the color of the lining of the hood designates the university or college that granted the degree.

THE TASSEL

Colored tassels are worn only by preference and should be worn draped over the right front quarter of the cap for undergraduate candidates and the left front quarter of the cap for graduate and doctoral candidates. Following is a partial list of tassel and hood colors established by the Intercollegiate Code announcing the discipline of academic study:

Apricot: Nursing

Citron: Social Work (Master’s Degree)

Drab: Business Administration, Commerce, Accounting

Gold: Science, Urban Studies (Master’s Degree)

Light Blue: Education

Lilac: Urban Planning (Master’s Degree)

Orange: Engineering

Peacock Blue: Public Affairs, Public Administration (Master’s Degree)

Pink: Music

Purple: Law

Salmon Pink: Public Health

White: Arts, Letters, Humanities

Slate Blue: Occupational Therapy (Doctoral Degree)

Aqua: Physical Therapy (Doctoral Degree)

Dark Blue: Philosophy (Ph.D./ Doctoral Degree)

Gold and Silver Metallic: Worn by doctors or presidents of universities and colleges
