Rider University Traditions
The President’s Robe
The robe worn by the president of Rider University is cranberry and black. It is worn by the president at formal academic occasions.
Andrew J. Rider Statue
A bronze statue that bears the likeness of Rider University’s namesake, Andrew J. Rider, was commissioned by the 2018-19 Student Government Association. Located in front of the Bart Luedeke Center, the statue portrays Rider sitting on a bench with his arm draped atop it. Rider was instrumental in steering the early institution to success, and today many school traditions are linked to his legacy.
The Rider Rock
The Rider Rock was initiated by students in 2006 to honor generations of Rider students and to connect them to the symbolic Rider Elm, the emblem of learning and the cycles of life. Incoming Rider students touch the Rider Rock following New Student Convocation, and graduating seniors complete the cycle during Senior Week. The five-foot-high granite rock, located by the P.J. Ciambelli Hall patio, is inscribed with Rider’s motto, the Latin words “In Omnia Paratus,” which translates to “in all things prepared.” The inscription continues, “By touching the Rider Rock, we affirm our commitment to the pursuit of knowledge and the betterment of our world. Through the time we spent here, we are forever joined to the past and future generations of students and to Rider University.”
The Presidential Medallion
The Presidential Medallion depicts the seal of the University and is inscribed with the University’s motto, the Latin words “In Omnia Paratus,” which translates to “in all things prepared.” The medallion is worn by the president at official University functions of high solemnity when academic attire is worn.
The Mace
The mace, carried at the head of the procession, is a traditional symbol of authority at governmental, ecclesiastical and scholarly occasions. Originally a warlike implement, it has evolved in form and fabric to fit its present ceremonial purpose. Of silver and ebony, the mace of Rider University is a memorial to Roland T. Henderson, Class of 1949, and was presented in 1975 by his widow, Elizabeth. The names of Rider’s eight presidents are engraved on the mace.
Rider University Statement of Community Values
In our endeavor to make Rider University a just community, we commit ourselves, as caring individuals, to the following principles:
» that our rigorous intellectual life nourishes our minds and spirits;
» that no person roams these halls as a stranger;
» that integrity of word and deed forms the foundation of all relationships;
» that we recognize that real leadership is derived from service to others;
» that we celebrate our differences for they are our strength;
» that we are proud of this special place, entrusted to us by past generations, nurtured by us for future ones;
» that we share not one Truth, but respect our common pursuit for understanding;
» and through the time we spend here, we are forever joined to each other and to Rider University.
Adopted on University Day, April 12, 2001
Academic Heraldry
The wearing of caps, gowns, and hoods at college and university functions dates back to the Middle Ages when they were first worn by monks and students in order to keep warm in the damp and drafty 12th-century castles and halls of learning. Through the years, their style and color have come to represent certain exact meanings.
» Gowns for the associate’s and bachelor’s degrees, worn through undergraduate study, have a semi-stiff yoke, long pleated front and intricate shirring across the shoulders and back. The gown is worn closed and is primarily distinguished by its long, pointed sleeves.
» The gown for the master’s degree has the same yoke effect as that of the bachelor’s, but is so designed that it may be worn open or closed. The back of the sleeve is oblong and square cut.
» Gowns for the doctoral degree are also worn open or closed. They have long velvet panels down the front and three velvet bars on the bellshaped sleeves. This velvet trimming may be either black or the color distinctive of the field of learning to which the degree pertains.
» Caps may be mortarboards or soft, square-topped caps. The tassel of the associate’s and bachelor’s caps may be black thread; the tassel for the master’s cap, silver thread; and the tassel of the doctor’s cap, gold thread.
» At Rider University, the tassel color indicates graduation with honors: undergraduate degree candidates receiving their degree with honors, cum laude, magna cum laude, or summa cum laude, wear white tassels. Master’s degree candidates receiving their degree with distinction wear tassels of cranberry.
» The hood gives further color and meaning to the academic costume. The hood is a shell of varying sizes for the baccalaureate and graduate degrees and of material to match the gown. It is lined with the color or colors of the institution conferring the degree and is bordered with velvet of the proper width and color to indicate the field of learning:
» Business/Drab
» Education/Light Blue
» Fine and Performing Arts/Brown
» Health Sciences/Citron
» Arts/White
» Music/Pink
» Nursing /Apricot
» Physical Education and Health/Sage Green
» Science/Gold

Scott Ruskan ’ 21
United States Coast Guard Aviation Survival Technician
Petty Officer Scott C. Ruskan ’21 has dedicated his life to service and the protection of others. After earning a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from Rider University, he enlisted in the United States Coast Guard, committing himself to one of the nation’s most demanding and high-risk roles.
As an aviation survival technician and rescue swimmer, Ruskan deploys into extreme conditions to save lives. In July 2025, during his first official mission, he responded to catastrophic flooding in central Texas. Amid rapidly rising waters, he served as a triage
coordinator and helped rescue 165 people, an extraordinary effort that drew national recognition.
For his actions, Ruskan was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross, honoring extraordinary achievement in aerial flight. He was also awarded the Legion of Merit, one of the nation’s highest military decorations, during the State of the Union address in February 2026. Despite the recognition, he remains humble, crediting his fellow servicemembers and emphasizing the teamwork behind every rescue.
At Rider, Ruskan was a Dean’s List student, Division I distance runner on the men’s track and field team, and founder and president of the Investment Club, demonstrating the leadership and determination that continue to define his service.
Petty Officer Scott C. Ruskan exemplifies the highest ideals of service and selflessness. For his courage and unwavering commitment to others, Rider University is proud to confer upon him an Honorary Doctor of Laws as well as the Young Alumni Award.
