Participation in Commencement Academic Attire Graduates are required to purchase their own academic attire for the commencement ceremony. Only graduates wearing university-approved academic attire will be permitted to participate in the commencement ceremony. Students who make unapproved alterations or add unapproved adornments to their academic attire may be required to remove or replace the altered piece prior to being allowed to process in the ceremony. Required Graduation Attire The University of Mary requires that graduates wear the following attire at commencement: Bachelor’s degree level: black bachelor’s degree gown, with or without University of Mary customization on it; black bachelor’s degree mortarboard; black tassel or red/white/blue tassel for students with military service records; university-approved honor cords for qualifying students Master’s degree level: black master’s degree gown, with or without University of Mary customization on it; black master’s degree mortarboard; black tassel or red/white/blue tassel for students with military service records; master’s hood with university and program colors Doctoral degree level: black doctoral degree gown with appropriate velvet color pertaining to the degree earned, with or without University of Mary customization on it; black doctoral degree tam (8-sided); gold tassel or red/white/blue tassel for students with military service records; doctoral hood with university and program colors Requesting Approval for Cords & Adornments Associated with Clubs, Organizations, or Academic Programs The University of Mary provides gold honor cords for undergraduate students who meet the standards for the award of Latin honors upon their degree (cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher). All additional cords or adornments requested by a club, organization, or academic program must be approved by the Graduation Committee in accordance with the following processes prior to students being permitted to wear the items at commencement. Only chairs, deans, and UMary-approved student clubs and organizations may initiate a request for cords or adornments intended to signal an affiliation with a club, organization, or academic program. UMary views the cords or adornments associated with clubs, organizations, or academic programs as not merely recognition of membership or participation but as way to recognize a significant accomplishment in the areas of leadership, service, and/or scholarship. Groups may choose to recognize memberships through other means such as organizing an award ceremony that is separate from commencement. To initiate a request for approval, the dean, chair, or group leader must submit a formal request to the Graduation Committee no later than 60 business days prior to the spring commencement ceremony. Requests must be made on the official request form, and the form must be complete to receive consideration. The form requires groups to explain what type of accomplishment the cord or adornment will represent in the areas of leadership, service, and/or scholarship and provide a detailed description of the cord or adornment, including its color and a picture (if available). Requestors should review the list of cord colors currently in use to avoid duplication. The Graduation Committee will consider the request and make an approval or rejection decision. The committee will, at a minimum, reject any request that may cause a substantial disruption or interference with the commencement ceremony. If a request for cords is approved, the group is responsible for purchasing the cords and distributing to their members prior to commencement. Groups are strongly encouraged to purchase cords and adornments through UMary’s graduation apparel vendor. Information on this vendor is available through the Registrar’s Office. Additional Personal Adornments As the focus of the commencement ceremony is academic, the University of Mary requires that additional personal adornments or alterations to academic attire receive university approval. The university shall only approve personal adornments or alternations that are of a recognized religious or cultural significance and are unlikely to cause a substantial disruption or an inference with the commencement ceremony. An eagle feather on the tassel for Native American students is one example of an adornment that is approved. If students have a special cultural or religious custom that they would like to honor during the commencement ceremony through an adornment or alteration to their regalia, they can request permission to alter their academic attire by emailing [email protected] . This request must include a detailed description of the alteration or adornment and should be made at least 10 business days prior to commencement. The VP for Academic Affairs or designee will make a ruling to approve or deny the request and prepare a list of approved personal adornments and alterations for use by commencement volunteers. Graduation Attire FAQs Q. What level of formality of dress is appropriate at Commencement? A. Appropriate dress for commencement would be either business professional or semi- formal. No jeans; no tennis shoes; no flip-flops. Q. Does the University of Mary limit the shoe style and color that may be worn with academic attire? A. No, students are free to select any shoe that meets the above standard of business professional or semi-formal attire. When selecting a shoe, an important thing to remember is that graduates will be standing in line on a concrete floor for a long time prior to processing into the arena, so select shoes that are comfortable enough to stand in for a long period of time. Q. Can military servicemembers wear their dress uniform instead of an academic gown? A. No, all graduates are required to wear an academic gown appropriate to their degree level. However, students with military service histories will be provided a red, white, and blue tassel with an American flag token to wear in honor of their service. Q. I’m a member of a club on campus, and we have club colors/club cords/other adornment that we all wish to wear. Is that allowed? A. The University has established a formal policy on approving cords and other adornments for clubs and organizations, which can be found (specify location) and the request form can be found (specify location). UMary views the cords or adornments associated with clubs, organizations, or academic programs as not merely recognition of membership or participation but as way to recognize a significant accomplishment in the areas of leadership, service, and/or scholarship. When making a request for a cord or special adornment, your group must explain what type of accomplishment the cord or adornment will represent in the areas of leadership, service, and/or scholarship. Groups may choose to recognize memberships through other means such as organizing an award ceremony that is separate from commencement. Requests must be submitted to the Graduation Committee on the official form at least 60 business days prior to commencement. Q. I want to recognize my cultural or religious affiliation at graduation through a special adornment or alteration to my graduation regalia. Do I need approval to do this? A. Yes. As the focus of the commencement ceremony is academic, the University of Mary requires that additional personal adornments or alterations to academic attire receive university approval. The university shall only approve personal adornments or alterations that are of a recognized religious or cultural significance and are unlikely to cause a substantial disruption or an inference with the commencement ceremony. An eagle feather on the tassel for Native American students is one example of an adornment that is approved. Students can request permission to alter their academic attire by emailing [email protected] . This request must include a detailed description of the alteration or adornment and should be made at least 10 business days prior to commencement. .

    CLOTHING AND ADORNMENT IN THE GA CULTURE: SEVENTEENTH TO TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY BY Regina Kwakye-Opong, MFA (Theatre Arts) A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Kumasi, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN AFRICAN ART AND CULTURE Faculty of Art College of Art and Social Sciences DECEMBER, 2011 © 2011 Department of General Art Studies i DECLARATION I hereby declare that this submission is my own work towards the PhD degree and that to the best of my knowledge, it contains no material previously published by another person nor material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree of the University, except where due acknowledgement has been made in the text. Student‟s Name Regina Kwakye-Opong ............................. ..............................

Signature Date i ABSTRACT This thesis is on the clothing components associated with Gas in the context of their socio- cultural functions from the seventeenth to the twenty-first century. The great number of literature on Ghanaian art indicates that Ghanaians including the Ga people uphold their culture and its significance. Yet in spite of the relevance and indispensable nature of clothing and adornment in the culture, researchers and scholars have given it minimal attention. The Ga people‟s desire to combine their traditional costumes with foreign fashion has also resulted in the misuse of the former, within ceremonial and ritual contexts.
  • Jewish North African Head Adornment: Traditions and Transition

    Jewish North African Head Adornment: Traditions and Transition

    Jewish North African head adornment: Traditions and Transition Garments, head and foot apparel and jewellery comprise the basic clothing repertoire of man. These vestments are primarily dictated by the wearer's climate and environs and, further, reflect the wearer's ethnic affiliation, social and familial status. Exhibitions and museum collections offer a glimpse into the rich variety of headgear characteristic of diaspora Jews: decorated skuU-caps; headbands and head ornaments; turbans and head scarves, as well as shawls and wraps that covered the body from head to foot. Headdresses exist from Europe, Central Asia, Irán, Iraq, Kurdistan, Yemen, the Balkans and, as shall be focused upon in this text, North África. The head apparel and omamentation under discussion in this article were crafted primarily during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. However, it must be noted that Jewish garments and head apparel are known to reflect age-old cultural traditions. The artistic assemblage of head adomments was not, however, uniquely Jewish. The design repertoire of eastern Jewish headdresses was given inspiration also from the Muslim environment. Both populations, in continual fear of idolatry, tumed to symbols rich in hidden meanings and to colours ripe with magical properties. The adornments under consideration here were those worn by the Jewish populace during both ceremonial and festive occasions. Festive garb, including omamented headgear, were used in ceremonies of the life cycle ^ and on Jewish holidays ^. Undoubtedly the most exquisite items were worn by the bride and groom on their wedding day. The Song of Songs 3:11 reflects upon the age oíd custom of head adornment: «Go forth, O daughters of Zion, and behold King Solomon with the crown with which his mother crowned him on the day of his wedding...»».

    Christian Dress & Adornment

    iblical 10 erspectives Christian Dress & Adornment by Samuele Bacchiocchi Essays by Laurel Damsteegt and Hedwig Jemison iblical erspectives 4990 Appian Way Berrien Springs Michigan 49103, USA BOOKS BY THE SAME AUTHOR THE CHRISTIAN AND ROCK MUSIC is a timely symposium that defines the biblical principles to make good musical choices. THE SABBATH UNDER CROSSFIRE refutes the common arguments used to negate the continuity and validity of the Sabbath. IMMORTALITY OR RESURRECTION? unmasks with compelling Biblical reason- ing the oldest and the greatest deception of all time, that human beings possess immortal souls that live on forever. THE MARRIAGE COVENANT is designed to strengthen your Christian home through a recovery of those biblical principles established by God to ensure happy, lasting, marital relationships. THE ADVENT HOPE FOR HUMAN HOPELESSNESS offers a scholarly, and comprehensive analysis of the biblical teachings regarding the certainty and imminence of Christ’s Return. FROM SABBATH TO SUNDAY presents the results of a painstaking research done at a Vatican University in Rome on how the change came about from Saturday to Sunday in early Christianity. THE SABBATH IN THE NEW TESTAMENT summarizes Bacchiocchi’s exten- sive research on the history and theology of the Lord’s Day and answers the most frequently asked questions on this subject. WINE IN THE BIBLE shows convincingly that the Bible condemns the use of alcoholic beverages, irrespective of the quantity used. CHRISTIAN DRESS AND ADORNMENT examines the Biblical teachings regarding dress, cosmetics, and jewelry. An important book designed to help Christians dress modestly, decently, and reverently. DIVINE REST FOR HUMAN RESTLESSNESS offers a rich and stirring theo- logical interpretation of the relevance of Sabbathkeeping for our tension-filled and restless society.
