Creation of the mace and chain was commissioned to New York artist and professor of silversmithing at State University of New York Kurt J. Masdorf in 1977. The University Mace and Chancellor's Chain of Office are emblazoned with the institution's name along with symbols of Tennessee, the state whose citizens we serve. Borrowing from ancient traditions, these hand-crafted ceremonial pieces create interest and respect by both participants and observers.

The ordinary dress of the scholar, whether student or teacher, was the dress of a cler­ ic. With few exceptions, the medieval scholar had taken at least minor orders, made certain vows, and perhaps been tonsured. Long gowns were worn and may have been necessary for warmth in unheated buildings.
