Edgewood Baccalaureate 2012

Edgewood Baccalaureate 2012 What is Baccalaureate? The baccalaureate ceremony is a highlight of the academic year.

It is a joyous occasion for the graduating class: a time to rejoice, to praise, to honor and to celebrate with each other the life of learning. Legend has it that the Baccalaureate ceremony originated in a statute of 1432 at Oxford University, which required each bachelor to deliver a sermon in Latin as part of his academic exercise. Because the earliest universities in this country were founded p

rimarily to educate ministers, the British practice of a Baccalaureate service continued. Today, the service is usually a Christian faith one that celebrates the completion of an undergraduate academic or high school career.
