Honorary Degree
Linda Deutsch ’65
Doctor of Humane Letters, honoris causa
Presented by President Patrick F. Leahy & Jeana M. Piscatelli ’01, ’02M
In a half century with the Associated Press, Linda Deutsch ’65 established herself as the nation’s leading expert in coverage of high-profile trials. From Charles Manson to Patty Hearst, O.J. Simpson to Michael Jackson and many others, she provided a journalistic history of the American justice system in the pressure cooker of celebrity trials.
She had a front row seat for politically sensitive trials, cases of gruesome murders, a kidnapped heiress turned bank robber, gang murders, drug lords, and mafia figures.
The magazine, “Current Biography,” summing up her career, said, “She has been ranked among the foremost American courtroom journalists of modern times…She is best known for her detailed, objective reporting on some of the most sensational, newsworthy, and influential trials of recent decades.”
Before she scaled the heights of her profession, Deutsch was a New Jersey girl who began writing in grade school, worked for her local newspaper in high school, and found her calling while a student at Monmouth College, now Monmouth University, in West Long Branch.
Her ties to Monmouth remained strong over the years. In 1996, she received the Distinguished Alumni Award and in 2019, the University celebrated the naming of the Linda Deutsch ’65 Student Journalism Center, space dedicated to Monmouth’s student-run newspaper, The Outlook.
Born in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, she was raised in the seaside town of Bradley Beach, graduated from Asbury Park High School, and earned a bachelor’s degree in English from Monmouth in 1965. She was the editor of the prize- winning literary magazine, “Monmouth Letters” and features editor of The Outlook.
A journalism professor guided her to a summer job at the Perth Amboy Evening News, where she covered her first front-page story, the 1963 civil rights demonstration March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. After that, she has said, her career path was clear.
Upon graduation, she became a reporter and columnist for the Asbury Park Press, subsequently moving to California at the urging of her uncle, a newspaper editor. She worked briefly for the San Bernardino Sun, then joined the Associated Press in Los Angeles in 1967 as the only woman on the staff.
Before moving into courtrooms, Linda covered Presidents Richard M. Nixon and Ronald Reagan at their Western White Houses, and two assassination attempts on President Gerald Ford. In 1975, she was dispatched to Guam where she spent six weeks covering the evacuation of Vietnam after the fall of Saigon.
Over the decades, Linda became the eyes and ears of the public at countless trials including those of: Sirhan Sirhan, Manson, Hearst, Angela Davis, Daniel Ellsberg, John DeLorean, Exxon Valdez skipper Joseph Hazelwood, Simpson, Jackson, and Robert Blake.
She added an exclamation point to her career with her coverage of the Simpson criminal and civil trials, which brought her face into millions of homes in televised pool reports and interviews. She was a Pulitzer Prize nominee for her work on the case. Simpson later gave her numerous interviews saying he trusted her to be fair.
In retirement, she continues to appear in documentaries recounting the historic cases she covered.
In 2012, she was inducted into the Asbury Park High School Hall of Fame. She has received many awards, including the University of Missouri Honor Medal for Distinguished Service in Journalism, the Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ) national First Amendment Award, and SPJ honor as a “Fellow of the Society,” the highest honor awarded for contributions to the journalism profession.
She co-authored the book, “Verdict: The Chronicle of the O.J. Simpson Trial,” and contributed as an Associated Press reporter to: “Breaking News: How the Associated Press Has Covered War, Peace, and Everything Else.” She is at work on a memoir.
A lesser known fact about Linda is that at age 12 she founded one of the first Elvis Presley fan clubs and published a fan newspaper that gave her a taste of what it would be like to be a journalist sending news reports to a mass audience. Her dedication to Elvis never waned and has become a colorful part of her legend.
Distinguished Teacher Award 2023 Recipient
Kathryn Ann Lionetti, Ph.D.
Associate Professor, Biology
Kathryn Ann Lionetti, Ph.D., received her doctoral degree in Genetics from the Department of Microbiology at SUNY Stony Brook in July of 1990. She began teaching as a member of the Department of Biology at Monmouth University in August 1990, and was promoted to associate professor in 1996.
Lionetti has long been recognized for teaching effectiveness and course development. She was instrumental in developing the highly sought-after Molecular Cell Physiology concentration for Biology students. In 2006, she created a Molecular Cell laboratory to provide capstone experience in molecular and cellular techniques, and fill the gap as faculty-directed research opportunities were still emerging. She continues to teach and foster the development of the Introduction to Cell and Molecular Biology, a first-year foundational course. Her commitment to helping students adjust to college, and the challenges of a demanding major, was recognized in 2010 with the First Year Seminar Trailblazer Award for developing Meet the Microbes, the pioneering first year seminar course for the University. She has been at the forefront of transitions in general education, developing a new natural science course option, Mighty Microbes, in 2018, and helping the department move to an Introductory to Biology Major Seminar. In line with her interests in education, Lionetti helped develop syllabi for the three required biology courses for the Interdisciplinary Studies for Elementary Educators (ISEE) major and regularly taught Introduction to Structure and Function of Living Systems. As a major part of her teaching commitment, Lionetti has taught and undertaken major revisions in teaching both general and applied microbiology for biology majors, as well as students interested in nursing and health. When the COVID pandemic forced remote learning, Lionetti remained closely connected to the American Society for Microbiology. She developed innovative ways to accomplish lab learning outcomes for students taking the General Microbiology lecture and lab course remotely. She published this work titled, “Teaching Microscopy Remotely: Two Engaging Options,” in the Journal of Microbiology and Biology Education in 2022. Lionetti is a member of the American Society for Microbiology, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and the National Association of Biology Teachers. Her current research interests center around the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning.
Along with teaching, advising is a true passion. Early in her career, Lionetti received the 1992-93 Life and Career Advising Center Award for her contributions and dedication to students. She has served as department advising coordinator since its inception in 1997, served on school and University wide advising committees and task forces, and has been a First Year Advisor. In 2018, Lionetti received the Jean Judge Transfer Champion Award in recognition of exemplary dedication to transfer student service and advocacy at Monmouth University. Her commitment to students’ well-being led to selection for the Board of Trustees Student Life Committee, now part of the Academic and Student Experience Committee, amid a wide range of other service commitments on behalf of students and faculty colleagues.
Lionetti resides in Ocean Township with her husband Jeffrey, is the proud mother of two sons, and grandmother of one grandson.

Academic Regalia
The history of academic dress reaches far back into the earliest days of the oldest universities. A statute of 1321 required that all “Doctors, Licentiates, and Bachelors” of the University of Coimbra wear gowns. In England, in the second half of the 14th century, the statutes of certain colleges prescribed the wearing of a long gown. In the 16th and 17th centuries in Europe, the wearing of a robe often signified a degree candidate’s political or religious affiliation; in the northern universities and those of the British Isles, the robes signified that tuition and boarding fees of the wearer had been paid and also entitled them to special immunities in civil law, as well as providing them warmth at lectures and chapel.
When American colleges and universities desired to adopt some suitable system of academic apparel, a conference held at Columbia University in 1895, made up of representatives from various institutions, drew up a “By-Law, Regulation, or Statute” for the establishment of a suitable code of academic dress for colleges and universities in the United States. This code, with modifications made in 1959 by the Committee on Academic Costumes and Ceremonies of the American Council on Education, is still in force; the costumes and colors, trimmings, and patterns you will see are traditional, and interpret both the degree and field of learning. The bachelor’s gown, designed to be worn closed, has pointed sleeves; the master’s gown, which may be worn open or closed, has an oblong sleeve open at the wrist that hangs down in the traditional manner. The rear part of its oblong shape is square cut, and the front part has the arc cut away. The doctoral gown has bell-shaped sleeves. It may be worn open or closed.
Black is the recommended color for all academic gowns. Bachelor’s and master’s gowns are untrimmed. Doctoral gowns are faced with black velvet, with three bars across the sleeves; the color of the velvet may also be that which is distinctive to the degree, agreeing with that of the edging of the hood. In the 1960s, many American land-grant universities adopted the British and the Scottish tradition of using the official school color(s) for the robes of their doctoral recipients—for instance, Yale: sky blue; Harvard: crimson; University of Pennsylvania: scarlet and blue; Columbia: slate gray; Rutgers: scarlet and black.
The colors you will see in the hoods of our faculty represent the various fields in which the degrees were taken:
- Apricot – Nursing
- Brown – Fine Arts
- Citron – Social Work
- Crimson – Journalism
- Dark Blue – Philosophy
- Golden Yellow – Science
- Green – Medicine
- Lemon-Yellow – Library Science
- Light Blue – Education
- Orange – Engineering
- Pink – Music
- Purple – Law
- Sage Green – Physical Education
- Salmon Pink – Public Health
- Scarlet – Theology
- Yellow-Brown: Commerce, Business, Accounting
- White – Arts, Letters, Humanities
The hoods, differing in length for the three degrees—bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral—are lined with the official colors of the university or college conferring the degree, usually with one color forming a chevron pattern over the other. Hoods are edged and bound with velvet or the color appropriate for the degree. You will see in our procession many hoods edged with dark blue, representing doctor of philosophy.
Mortarboards are the approved headgear. The tassel, worn on the left side of the cap, may be gold if the holder has a doctoral degree.
