Te procession is designed so that each graduate passes before each faculty member one fnal time before the conferring of the degrees. Te modern academic gown evokes the medieval cappa clausa, a closed cloak typically worn by clerics; the modern hood, worn over the shoulders and down the back, recalls a functioning medieval head garment. In the late 19th century, the Intercollegiate Code was established for American universities, through which academic dress was standardized to convey the degree held, the feld of study, and the university awarding the degree. Accordingly, there are three shapes of gown: the bachelor’s gown is characterized by full, pointed sleeves; the master’s gown is characterized by oblong sleeves, cut away in front to leave a streamer of the sleeve behind; the doctor’s gown is faced with velvet, a likely echo of the clerical tippet, and features bell sleeves adorned with velvet bars. Academic hoods vary in size, shape, and color; they are lined with silk in the ofcial color or colors of the institution that granted the faculty member’s highest degree. Te trim color of the velvet binding indicates the discipline of the degree, commonly including: Philosophy, dark blue; Music, pink; Arts, Letters, and Humanities, white; Education, light blue; Law, purple; Medicine, green; Library Science, lemon yellow; Science, golden yellow; and Divinity, scarlet. Te gown is a symbol of the democracy of scholarship since it covers any clothing indicating rank or status. Te cap has its own traditions. Te frst right of a freed Roman slave was the privilege of wearing a cap, so the academic cap is the sign of the freedom of scholarship. Mortarboards have long been worn, but in recent years sof caps or tams and other colorful headgear have gained favor. An increasingly large number of universities in America have developed unique academic gowns; most of these conform to the basic style of the Intercollegiate Code, although they replace traditional black with school colors and are ofen ornamented with embroidered university seals or emblems. European academic dress adds further diversity and color to the academic procession. Te audience will rise until the procession reaches the stage and is seated. 3 ii | invocation (audience stands) The Reverend David F.H.

    Copyright by Benjamin Jonah Koch 2011 The Dissertation Committee for Benjamin Jonah Koch Certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Watchmen in the Night: The House Judiciary Committee’s Impeachment Inquiry of Richard Nixon Committee: David Oshinsky, Supervisor H.W. Brands Dagmar Hamilton Mark Lawrence Michael Stoff Watchmen in the Night: The House Judiciary Committee’s Impeachment Inquiry of Richard Nixon by Benjamin Jonah Koch, B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2011 Dedication To my grandparents For their love and support Acknowledgements I owe an immense debt of gratitude to my dissertation supervisor, David Oshinsky. When I arrived in graduate school, I did not know what it meant to be a historian and a writer. Working with him, especially in the development of this manuscript, I have come to understand my strengths and weaknesses, and he has made me a better historian. Thank you. The members of my dissertation committee have each aided me in different ways. Michael Stoff’s introductory historiography seminar helped me realize exactly what I had gotten myself into my first year of graduate school—and made it painless. I always enjoyed Mark Lawrence’s classes and his teaching style, and he was extraordinarily supportive during the writing of my master’s thesis, as well as my qualifying exams. I workshopped the first two chapters of my dissertation in Bill Brands’s writing seminar, where I learned precisely what to do and not to do.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

  • The International Recognition of Qualifications in the Field of Music
    Music Study, Mobility, and Accountability Project The International Recognition of Qualifications in the Field of Music Introduction This document provides an overview of qualifications in the field of music, their titles, meanings, and uses. It presents information concerning: • Present conditions and the dynamics of change in Europe and the United States regarding the meaning and use of qualifications and credentials. • Recognition of studies completed successfully by students in exchange programmes. • Recognition of completed qualifications and credentials such as degrees, diplomas, certifi- cates, or courses of study. • A nation-by-nation summary of requirements to enter regulated music professions where academic qualifications or credentials are normally specified. Each of these topics is complex; specific definitions and practices can vary among nations and institutions. Policies and practices change over time. Readers using the information provided here are encouraged to obtain a full understanding of the ways qualifications and credentials work in each specific national or institutional situation in which they are engaged. The Recognition of Qualifications in the European Union Recognition of qualifications is one of the conditions for the establishment of a European Union (EU) area for higher education and for the European free market, which is based on the free movement of goods and workers. The European Union has therefore developed far-reaching rules on the recognition of qualifications. A distinction needs to be made between recognition for academic purposes (for the continuing of studies abroad or for a study period abroad as part of the regular studies) and recognition for professional purposes (to be allowed to work in a certain profession).
