ACADEMIC TRADITIONS

BEARER OF THE MACE — In the academic procession, the President of the College is preceded by a mace bearer, who is a distinguished member of the Faculty or Administration in a ceremonial capacity. The custom derives from medieval times in England when the mace bearer served as a bodyguard. As a medieval officer was invested, opened court, or otherwise appeared in public functions, a mace bearer would precede the lofty person holding high a formidable weapon for protection. By American colonial days the custom had grown to represent the dignity of the office. The President of the College will wear the seal of the institution at the ceremony denoting his office.

ACADEMIC ATTIRE — The wearing of a gown and hood in college dates back to the Twelfth century when universities were developing under the influence of the church. Many of the students were monks who wore a cloak with a cowl or hood attached. The gown gave necessary warmth in unheated buildings and the hood covered the tonsured head; served as a shoulder cap; or, when hanging from the shoulder, became a bag to use when collecting alms.

Academic costume originated at Oxford and Cambridge over six hundred years ago when each university created its own costume partly from ecclesiastical, partly from secular sources. In the United States, the use of caps, gowns and hoods has been continuous since colonial times when Columbia University transplanted to America many of the regulations of the English universities. Several colleges had faculty academic costume codes before 1880. By 1893 many had adopted academic costume for the graduates, at student request, to provide a senior badge, to take the place of the archaic “swallowtail” dress suit, and to revive the tradition of a continuing university life. Since 1895 the American Council on Education has prescribed the academic costume now generally worn by the governing board, faculty and graduates at commencement.

The Associate Degree gown is gray. At the base of the yoke on either side of the front panels is a tab with a customized NCC embroidered on it. The yoke is made in two pieces, divided in the center back with decorative cord stitched into it. The Nassau Community College hood is made of rich, black velveteen cloth with modern design of orange and blue, the school colors, displayed in a “V” chevron of grosgrain ribbon. The mortarboard cap of grey has special lightweight metal edges and a tassel of blue and orange. In academic tradition, the tassel is worn on the right until the point in the commencement exercise when the degree is granted. At this point, the “crossing of the tassel” by each graduate signifies the achievement of the Associate Degree.

The Bachelor’s Degree gown is long, black, “worsted stuff” with semi-still yoke, shirring across the shoulders and black, long pointed sleeves. The length of the hood is three feet with a velvet edging two inches wide.

The Master’s Degree gown, sometimes made of silk, has the same yoke effect, and long sleeves which are closed at the bottom with a cut out portion resembling a “fish tail.” The forearm protrudes through a notched slit near the elbow. The length of the hood is three and one-half feet, with the velvet edging three inches wide. Unlike gowns denoting other degrees, the master’s gown may be worn open as well as closed.

The Doctor’s Degree is preferably of silk with velvet panels, three horizontal velvet bands on the upper arm of the full, bell-shaped sleeve. The length of the hood is four feet with panels at the sides, velvet edging five inches wide.

The cap, or “mortar-board,” is made of black serge or broadcloth with tassel. The tassel of the doctor’s cap is usually made of gold bullion. Hoods are lined with silk and show the official color or colors of the university from which the wearer received the degree. The velvet edging may be of the color distinctive of the department in which the wearer majored. Examples are orange for engineering, green for medicine, dark blue for philosophy, white for arts and letters, purple for law, light blue for education, golden yellow for science, brown for architecture and the fine arts, lemon for library science, and drab for business and commerce.

The relationships you have made here, whether it be with faculty members, staff, friends, have been an integral part of your transformation journey here at NCC.

You have proven yourselves to be resilient and committed to achieving the academic goals you set for yourselves.
