18 The Academic Procession

The President's Party forms the first section of the academic procession. Headed by the commence ment marshal, it includes the president, members of the State Board of Regents and of the General Assembly, other platform guests, and the vice-presidents, deans and other principal university officials. The commencement marshal carries the University Mace, designed and fashioned for the Centennial Commencement in 1976 by Randall Swanson, at that time a freshman majoring in Industrial Arts. A traditional symbol of authority, the mace is a carved wood rod capped with ends of cast bronze, with the top carrying the seal of the University. The sterling silver chain worn by the president was also created for the Centennial Commencement. It was designed and constructed by Martin Peterson, then a junior majoring in art, and it memorializes the historical evolution of the University by carrying the seals of the Iowa State Normal School, the Iowa State Teachers College, the State College of Iowa, and the University of Northern Iowa. The procession continues with the faculty. The heads of the departments come first, led by the chairperson of the faculty, and the chairperson of the Faculty Senate is the marshal for the remaining faculty. When the members of the President's Party have arrived at their proper stations, they rise to honor the entrance of the candidates for degrees. Led by faculty marshals, the candidates enter with candidates for the highest degrees first. The candidates for Bachelor of Arts, both in the Teaching Program and in the Liberal Arts Program, enter in four groups, each group representing the candidates from one of the four undergraduate colleges. The banners which are carried with the candidates' procession were first used in 1977. They were designed by Bekka Lindstrom, at that time a sophomore majoring in Art. Ms. Lindstrom's explanation of the banner designs accompanies the symbols reproduced on page 20 of this program. The banners were fashioned by Phillip Elliott, who also designed the stage setting which you see before you. This was first used for the Centennial Commencement in 1976. Students wearing gold cords are those graduating with highest honors, a distinction which requires a grade average of 3.75 (4.00 would be all A's). The academic costumes worn trace their origin to the Middle Ages when long-sleeved hooded gowns were necessary for warmth in the unheated stone colleges. Over the centuries, much diversity occurred, and to bring some order, in the United States in 1894 an intercollegiate system of academic costume was agreed on, now adhered to by more than 760 institutions. According to this code, both the styling and colors of the regalia have significance. The design of the gown indicates the degree: the bachelor's is a simple gown with a full sleeve. The master's gown is much like it except for the long sleeve which hangs loose. The doctor's gown is fuller and more elaborate. It has velvet edging and three velvet stripes on the full sleeve. The color of this velvet may be black or in the color appropriate to the degree. Hoods, which are worn over the gowns, are similar for all degrees, although differing slightly in length. The candidates for the bachelor's degrees usually do not wear the hood. The hood has a velvet edging which indicates the area of the degree, and the inside or lining of the hood is satin in the colors of the college or university granting the degree. A partial list of the degree colors to be found on the edge of the hood or the trimming on the doctor's gown is as follows:

Apricot - Nursing Lemon - Library Science Blue, dark - Philosophy Maize - Agriculture Blue, light - Education Maroon - Home Economics Brown - Fine Arts Orange - Engineering Citron - Social Science Pink- Music Copper - Economics Purple - Law Drab - Business Scarlet - Theology Green - Medicine White - Arts and Letters Green Sage - Physical Education Yellow, Golden - Science
