The 'modern academic costume has evolved from the dress of the medieval guilds and the early religious orders. Today, everyone with a college or university degree may wear the black academic gown. Hoods, which are omitted by seniors who are candidates for degrees, are worn by graduates. At the University of Minnesota, the lining of the hood has a maroon chevron on a gold background to represent the University colors. A University faculty member who holds a degree from another college or university wears the colors of his/her own school. Distinctions between sleeves indicate the type of degree held by the wearer. A long pointed sleeve indicates a Bachelor's degree, while a long, closed sleeve with a slit near the upper part of the arm designates a Master's degree. A round, open sleeve marks a Doctor's degree. L The velvet edging on hoods is the color which stands for the field of study of the gown's wearer. It may be white for Arts and Letters, gold-yellow for Science, maize for Home Economics, bright blue for Education. Dark blue denotes Philosophy; purple, Law; green, Medicine; pink, Music. Commerce and Accounting is shown by copper edging, Engineering by orange, Fine Arts by brown, Physical Education by sage green, and Theology by scarlet. A Doctor's robe also has velvet trimmings on the rest of the gown, including crossbars on the sleeve. The trimmings may either be black or may match the color · of the hood edging. Candidates for degrees wearing medallions are honor students. Academic caps, or mortar-boards, derive their name from the similarity to the top portion of the mortar-board used by a mason. At the University of Paris, teachers placed square, stiff caps on graduates to signify promotion. This type of headgear was adopted later by the masters at Oxford and worn on all occasions to demonstrate their independence. A clue as to why these Oxford faculty members chose the square mortar-board is given in this 1564 poem. 11 'Tis square like scholars and their books: The rest are round, but this is square To shew that they more stable are. 11 The rules of many institutions permit the holder of a Doctor's degree to wear a gold tassel on the academic cap. THE MACE . The mace, which is carried by the faculty member leading the academic proces- st0n, symbolizes leadership and authority. Use of a mace dates back to the 12th century when it was carried by kings' bodyguards. Even in more modern times, the mace has maintained some of its ancient function of keeping order. The doorkeeper of the House of Representatives has a mace for use in formal House activities. The mace carried in UMD's commencement procession has a glass sphere toppedtbe by the North Star - a symbol of the state of Minnesota. It also has a seal of University set in the handle. THE NATIONAL ANTHEM Oh, say can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming. Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thru' the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof thru the night that our flag was still there. Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave? "HAIL! MINNESOTA" Minnesota, Hail to thee! Hail to thee, our College dear! Thy light shall ever be A beacon bright and clear; Thy sons and daughters true Will proclaim thee near and far; They will guard thy fame And adore thy name; Thou shalt be their Northern Star. Like the stream that bends to sea, Like the pine that seeks the blue! Minnesota, still for thee Sons and daughters strong and true; From thy woods and waters fair From thy prairies waving far, At thy call they throng With their shout and song. Hailing thee their Northern Star. I
