ORDER OF THE EXERCISES of THE ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-NINTH COMMENCEMENT

SATURDAY, MAY 22, 2021 10:30 A.M. EDT CAMPUS AND ZOOM ACADEMIC DRESS

The custom of wearing academic dress extends back to medieval Europe and the revival of interest in learning that arose in the universities. The dress is an adaptation of the costume of the monastic order, as most scholars of that time were also members of the clergy. Rules governing academic dress at American colleges and universities come from an intercollegiate code written in 1895. The mortarboard-style cap is worn for all degrees. The doctor’s cap may be made of velvet; the doctor’s tassel may be gold. Other tassels may be black or the color of the field of learning. Tassels are worn on the left side by those who already have a bachelor’s degree. Each of the three academic degrees—bachelor, master, and doctor—has its own distinctive gown and hood. The bachelor’s gown is worn closed and has long, pointed sleeves. The master’s gown, which is designed to be worn open, has a long, closed sleeve, and arms are passed through slits near the elbows. The doctor’s gown, also designed to be worn open, has a full, open sleeve with three bars of velvet. The color of the velvet bars may be black or the same color as the trim of the hood. The hood, which was originally a cowl that was slipped over the head for warmth, is the most colorful and distinctive feature of American academic regalia. Bachelor’s and master’s hoods—three feet and three-and-a-half feet long, respectively—are of similar design, black, and pointed at the base. The doctor’s hood is four feet long with a full shape. The silk lining of the hood represents the institution that granted the degree. Its velvet border indicates the field of learning: Agriculture—Maize Library Science—Lemon Arts, Letters, —White Medicine—Green Business and Commerce—Drab Music—Pink Economics—Copper Philosophy—Blue Education—Light Blue Public Health—Salmon Engineering—Orange Physical Education—Sage Green Fine Arts, Architecture—Brown Science—Golden Yellow Forestry—Russet Theology and Divinity—Scarlet Laws—Purple
