The traditional caps and gowns worn by students and faculty in the academic procession have been the historic costume of scholars since medieval times. Because many scholars of that period were members of monastic orders, the academic costume resembles ecclesiastical dress. A uniform code for academic costumes was drafted by an intercollegiate commission in 1893 and has since been adopted by the majority of colleges and universities in the United States. E'ach of the three academic degrees- bachelor's, master's and doctor's- has its own distinctive gown and hood. The gown representing the bachelor's degree is distinguished by its long, poin ted sleeve. The master's gown has a longer, narrow closed sleeve, extending below th e knee; the arm is passed through a slit at the elbow. In constrast, the doctor's gown has a full, bell-shaped sleeve with three bars of velvet. The opening of this gown (and the backs of the head) is faced with wide velvet bands, which may be black or of a color indicating the general field of learning of the wearer- for example, dark blue for philosophy, green for medicine, purple for law, and light blue for education. The most colorful and distinctive item of the academic costume is th e hood, which passes around th e neck and extends down the back. The colors of the silk lining exposed in the center of the hood arc those of the college or university wh ich conferred the degree. Listed below are examples of institutional colors worn by Salisbury State College faculty:
