The Academic procession is composed of the faculty, staff, officers, trustees, and honored guests of the University. Faculty enter by college and each college is preceded by its marshal, a senior faculty member, with the college baton, described under University Regalia. Following the banner bearers arc the college marshals and faculty. Each banner is a combination of colors thac declare the disciplines taught in thac college. These colors, which were escablished by the American Council on Educacion, are as follows:
College Colors Discipline
Agriculture, Forestry and Life Maize Agriculture Sciences Brown Forestry Golden Yellow Life Sciences
Architecture, Arts and Lilac Architecture Humanities Brown Arts White Humanities Darlc Blue Philosophy
Business and Public Affairs Drab Accounting and Business Copper Economics Peacoclc Blue Public Administracion Cream Social Sciences
Engineering and Science Orange Engineering Golden Yellow Science
Health, Education and Human Lighc Blue Education Development Apricot Nursing Cream Social Sciences

Staff Purple and Orange Academic Support
Collegiace faculty follow their banner in order of academic ranlc wearing academic costumes of medieval origin. Those who have received their degrees from institutions outside che United States wear costumes specified by the awarding inscitucions. The academic costumes of faculty whose degrees are from United States' instirutions a re specified by a uniform code maincained by the American Council on Education. Caps are blaclc and are usually mortar boards with tassels. Doctors of Philosophy wear gold Cassels usually of metallic thread; other degrees wear blaclc or discipline colors. The bachelor's gown is simple and blaclc ~ith long, pointed sleeves. Masccrs' gowns, also blaclc, are longer than bachelors. Older gowns have sleeves that terminate at the elbow while those since 1960 have sleeves extended to the wrist. Doctors' gowns are full, with bell-lilce sleeves. The front is marlced by velvet panels and the sleeves arc marlced by three velvet bars. While mosc gowns are blaclc with blaclc velvet, one variation is to replace blaclc velvet wich velvet in the discipline color. A second variation is a colored gown usually of che university's colors. All hoods specify the level of degree, the type of discipline studied and che awarding instirution. First, degree level is signified by the size of the hood with bachelors' smallest, masters' larger, and doctors' quite large and of a different shape. Clemson does noc award hoods co bachelors. The width of the velvet trim also conveys the degree. Secondly, the degree is indicated by the color of the trim edging the hood to form the throat over the gown. The most frequently seen is darlc blue, which designates the doctor of philosophy (Ph.D.) degree. Finally, the color of the hood's lining specifies the awarding institution. The colors arc displayed in combinations that are drawn from heraldry. Nocice that the Clemson University hood is lined with purple through which is an orange chevron (a "V"). Although many combinations arc duplicated by dozens of institutions, Clemson is presently the only institucion with that registered combinacion. The officers, trustees, and honored guests wear academic, ecclesiastical, or military regalia as set forth by their professions. They are preceded by the Universiry Marshal. Clad in a gown of office in gold and purple, che marshal wears no hood and bears the University mace. At the ceremony's close, the faculty do not exit as a part of the recessional buc are dismissed, along with students and guests, when the marshal leaves the coliseum. The University Regalia
The University mace is the symbolic representation of the whole of Clemson University and must be present at any convocation where the University, through its delegated members, is acting officially. At any official convocation such as commencement, the University Marshal, carrying the mace, precedes the President into the assembly. The mace rests before the President's chair or speaker's stand throughout the ceremony, and its removal from the assembly at the close of a convocation is symbolic of the official withdrawal of the University and, thus, the close of the proceedings.
The decorative design of Clemson's mace is derived from the ceremonial maces carried by heads of state and church in the Middle Ages. Its basic clublike shape, however, is much more ancient, probably going back to man's prehistory. It is made of walnut wood and silver, with the seal of the University in gold and the University colors represented by insets of cornelian (orange) and amethyst (purple). Amethyst is also the state stone of South Carolina.
The Presidential chain and seal is symbolic of the authority vested in the office of president by the governing body of the University. Only the University President may wear it, and while wearing it he speaks for the whole body of the institution. Clemson's chain and seal are made of silver and gold, and cornelian and amethyst.
The batons of the college marshals also descend from medieval "staffs of office" which were carried by the senior members of departments of state or church. They display the seal of the University and the symbolic color of the discipline to which the college belongs. Clemson's batons are made of walnut wood and silver with the various disciplines inset with enamel.
The University regalia were designed and executed by Mr. Robert Ebendorf. Mr. Ebendorf is twice winner of the Tiffany Award and one of the most acclaimed goldsmiths of our era. The enamel plaques for the batons were executed by the late Professor Marshall C. Bell, and the lapidary work was executed by the late Mr. C. C. Wilson of Clemson University.

Clemson University is named for Thomas Green Clemson (1807-1888), who left the bulk of his estate to the State of South Carolina for the founding of the institution.
Thomas Clemson was born in Philadelphia in 1807 and educated at the Royal School of Mines in Paris (1828-1832). His early profession was that of a mining engineer; however, circumstances diverted his interests into politics and the life of a southern planter, and he soon became an enthusiastic advocate . of scientific agriculture. He had a career as a diplomat (charge d'affaires to Belgium, 1844-1852) and served as the first Superintendent of Agricultural Affairs in Washington (1860). As a scientist he published numerous articles in the fields of mining, chemistry and agriculture. His varied activities included his assistance in the founding of the Maryland Agricultural College, his support of the Morrill Act, his leadership in South Carolina after the Civil War, and his part in founding Clemson University.
Thomas Clemson was the son-in-law of South Carolina's John C. Calhoun, a political figure of national importance during the first half of the nineteenth century. Mr. Calhoun's home, Fort Hill, is preserved on the Clemson Campus as a national shrine.
The academic program at Clemson College began in 1893 with an enrollment of 446. The first "college prospectus" announced only two four-year curricula, supplemented by two two-year preparatory courses. Today the University has six major academic units. These are the College of Agriculture, Forestry and Life Sciences, the College of Architecture, Arts and Humanities, the College of Business and Public Affairs, the College of Engineering and Science, the College of Health, Education and Human Development, and the Graduate School.
The institution is an accredited member of. the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools; various curricula are accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business, Computing Sciences Accreditation Board, Council on Accreditations of the National Recreation and Park Association, National Architectural Accrediting Board, National Association of State Directors of Teacher Education and Certification, National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education, National League for Nursing, and Society of American Foresters.
Clemson is a land-grant institution. As such, it is engaged not only in its primary academic program, but does extensive research at the main campus and at five agricultural experiment stations located in the State. The University is also heavily committed to a varied program of public service, including the work of agricultural extension which has professional personnel located in each of the State's counties. CLEMSON ALMA MATER
A. C. Corcoran, '19
Where the Blue Ridge yawns its greatness, Where the Tigers play;
Here the sons of dear old Clemson Reign supreme alway.
Chorus Dear old Clemson; we will triumph And with all our might,
That the Tiger's roar may echo O'er the mountain height.
We will dream of great conquests, For our past is grand,
And her sons have fought and conquered Every foreign land.
Where the mountains smile in grandeur O'er the hill and dale.
Here the Tiger lair is nestling Swept by storm and gale.
We are brothers strong in manhood, For we work and strive;
And our alma mater reigneth Ever in our lives. Note: Candidates appearing in this program are not certified graduates. Likewise, academic honors designations are based upon performance prior to final grades. Both certification of graduation and honors designations must come from the Registrar of the University.
