COMMENCEMENT • SPRING & SUMMER 2020 3 ACADEMIC TRADITIONS GOWN, CAP AND HOOD

All candidates for degrees and those who hold degrees, including university officials, faculty and visiting dignitaries, are attired in traditional cap and gown. Recipients of the associate degree and the bachelor’s degree wear black gowns and caps, and recipients of master’s, specialist and doctoral degrees wear black gowns and caps with hoods of various colors.

Bachelors’ gowns have pointed sleeves; masters’ gowns have long closed sleeves with slits at the elbow for the HISTORY OF ACADEMIC ATTIRE arms; the doctors’ gowns have wide, round open sleeves.

COMMENCEMENT • SPRING & SUMMER 2020 5 ACADEMIC TRADITIONS

THE MACE

Originally used as a weapon during the Middle Ages, a mace was carried to protect a ruler. Eventually this scepter-like instrument became an emblem of authority and became popular for ceremonial purposes. Maces are now carried at the beginning of academic processions at many universities throughout the world, representing each institution’s authority to confer degrees.

Western Kentucky University’s Mace contains several elements that are symbolic of WKU’s history. Hand-carved from Kentucky cherry, the top portion of the Mace is a representation of the lantern on the dome of Cherry Hall and is a tribute to our founder, Dr. Henry Hardin Cherry. The University Seal contains the University’s motto, and carved bands around the shaft include significant dates in the evolution of the institution. Gems embedded in the lower portion of the Mace represent the colors of the academic disciplines offered by the University. The round ball at the base is symbolic of WKU’s alumni around the globe.

The Mace, carried by the University’s most senior faculty member, was dedicated to the University on May 7, 1998 during the Inaugural Week activities for President Gary A. Ransdell. It was designed by John Warren Oakes and was crafted by Terry Leeper and Frank Pittman.

THE UNIVERSITY SEAL

The University Seal features our treasured motto “The Spirit Makes the Master” and our ideal defined by Dr. Henry Hardin Cherry as “Life, More Life.” First adopted by Dr. Cherry in 1911, the Seal evolved as the institution grew to university status. WKU’s President Emeritus, Dr. Kelly Thompson, gave leadership to designing the present version of the Seal, which was approved by President Paul Garrett and first used in 1948. It was altered in 1966 to include the appropriate wording when university status was attained.

6 COMMENCEMENT • SPRING & SUMMER 2020 THE PRESIDENT’S MEDALLION

Medallions, as worn in higher education, represent the evolution of a practice arising in the Middle Ages and the very early beginnings of universities in the Western World. The Medallion identifies the wearer as the designated leader of the university. Representing both the authority and the responsibility of the person who wears it, the Medallion is worn by the president of the university at formal academic occasions. The face of the sterling silver medallion is a replica of the seal of the university.

GONFALONS

Another symbol used in commencement ceremonies is the academic banner, or gonfalon. A gonfalon is a flag or banner that hangs from a crosspiece or frame and originated in the medieval states of Italy as an ensign of state or office.

Gonfalons are used in the commencement ceremony to designate the university’s various colleges and academic units. The university seal is prominently displayed on each gonfalon.

Oh Say! can you see, by the dawn’s early light Verse One What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming College Heights on hilltop fair with beauty all thine own, Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro’ the perilous fight Lovely jewel far more rare than graces any throne. O’er the ramparts we watch’d were so gallantly streaming College Heights, We hail Thee. And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air We shall never fail Thee. Gave proof thro’ the night that our flag was still there Falter never, live forever Oh, say, does that Star-spangled Banner yet wave Hail! Hail! Hail! O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave Verse Two College Heights with living soul and purpose strong and My Old Kentucky Home true, Stephen C. Foster, 1853 Service ever is thy goal, thy Spirit ever new. College Heights, We hail Thee. The sun shines bright in the old Kentucky home We shall never fail Thee. ‘Tis summer the people are gay Falter never, live forever The corntop’s ripe and the meadow’s in the bloom Hail! Hail! Hail! While the birds make music all the day

The young folks roll on the little cabin floor Verse Three All merry, and happy and bright College Heights thy noble life shall e'er our pattern be, By’n by hard times come a knocking at the door Teaching us through joy and strife to love humanity. Then my old Kentucky home, good night College Heights, We hail Thee. Weep no more my lady, O weep no more today We shall never fail Thee. We will sing one song for the old Kentucky home Falter never, live forever For the old Kentucky home far away Hail! Hail! Hail!
