THE ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTEENTH COMMENCEMENT I uesday May 17. 1977 tour o'< Kh k id the .iltrnuKMi ( iyk CENTER CONVENTION HA1 I NOTES ON ACADEMIC DRESS* The history of academic dress begins in the early days of the oldest universities. A statute of 1321 required all "Doctors, Licentiates, and Bachelors" of the University of Coimbra to wear gowns. In England during the second half of the 14th century, the statutes of certain colleges forbade "excess in apparel" and prescribed the wearing of a long gown. It is still a question whether academic dress finds its sources chiefly in ecclesiastical or in civilian dress remains unresolved. Gowns may have been considered necessary for warmth in the unheated buildings used by medieval scholars. Hoods may have served to cover the tonsured head until superseded for that purpose by the skull cap. The cap was later displaced by a head-dress similar to ones now recognized as "academic." European institutions continue to show great diversity in their specifi- cations of academic dress. However, when American colleges and universities adopted a system of academic apparel a half century ago, a code was devised for all to follow. GOWNS. The gown for the bachelor's degree has pointed sleeves and is worn closed. The gown for the master's degree has an oblong sleeve, open at the wrist, with the sleeve base hanging down in the tra- ditional manner. The rear part of the sleeve's oblong shape is square cut and the front part has an arc cut away. It may be worn open or closed. The gown for the doctor's degree has bell-shaped sleeves and may be worn open or closed. Bachelor's and master's gowns have no trimmings, but the doctor's may be faced on the front with black or colored velvet and with three bars of the same across the sleeves. If color is used, it is the color distinctive of the subject to which the degree pertains, and it matches the edging or binding of the hood. For all academic purposes, including trimmings of doctors' gowns, edgings of hoods, and tassels of caps, the colors associated with the different subjects are as follows: Agriculture—Maize Medicine—Green Arts, Letters, Humanities—White Music—Pink Commerce, Accountancy, Business—Drab Nursing—Apricot Dentistry—Lilac Oratory (Speech) —Silver Gray Economics—Copper Pharmacy—Olive Green Education—Light Blue Philosophy—Dark Blue Engineering—Orange Physical Education—Sage Green Fine Arts—Brown Public Administration—Peacock Blue Forestry—Russet Public Health—Salmon Pink Journalism—Crimson Science—Golden Yellow Law—Purple Social Work—Citron Library Science—Lemon Theology—Scarlet Veterinary Science—Gray HOODS. Hoods are lined with the official color or colors of the college or university conferring the degree. The binding or edging of the hood is the color indicative of the subject to which the degree pertains, except that the doctor's cap may have its tassel of gold thread. CAPS. Mortarboards are generally worn as part of the academic costume. The long tassel fastened to the middle point of the cap's top is either black or the color appropriate to the subject. It is customary for degree candidates to wear the tassels on the right front side before degrees are conferred and to shift them to the left when the degrees are awarded. This custom is in some respects a substitute for individual hooding. *Adapted from "An Academic Costume Code and Ceremony Guide," American Universities and Colleges (Washington, D.C.: American Council on Education, 1959). 1 PROGRAM Brother A.

  • HISTORY of the NATIONAL CATHOLIC COMMITTEE for GIRL SCOUTS and CAMP FIRE by Virginia Reed
    Revised 3/11/2019 HISTORY OF THE NATIONAL CATHOLIC COMMITTEE FOR GIRL SCOUTS AND CAMP FIRE By Virginia Reed The present National Catholic Committee for Girl Scouts and Camp Fire dates back to the early days of the Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) and the National Catholic Welfare Conference. Although it has functioned in various capacities and under several different names, this committee's purpose has remained the same: to minister to the Catholic girls in Girl Scouts (at first) and Camp Fire (since 1973). Beginnings The relationship between Girl Scouting and Catholic youth ministry is the result of the foresight of Juliette Gordon Low. Soon after founding the Girl Scout movement in 1912, Low traveled to Baltimore to meet James Cardinal Gibbons and consult with him about her project. Five years later, Joseph Patrick Cardinal Hayes of New York appointed a representative to the Girl Scout National Board of Directors. The cardinal wanted to determine whether the Girl Scout program, which was so fine in theory, was equally sound in practice. Satisfied on this point, His Eminence publicly declared the program suitable for Catholic girls. In due course, the four U.S. Cardinals and the U.S. Catholic hierarchy followed suit. In the early 1920's, Girl Scout troops were formed in parochial schools and Catholic women eagerly became leaders in the program. When CYO was established in the early 1930's, Girl Scouting became its ally as a separate cooperative enterprise. In 1936, sociologist Father Edward Roberts Moore of Catholic charities, Archdiocese of New York, studied and approved the Girl Scout program because it was fitting for girls to beome "participating citizens in a modern, social democracy." This support further enhanced the relationship between the Catholic church and Girl Scouting.

The contest allowed students to is Born! portray an interpretation of the birth of Jesus Christ as seen through their eyes. Four winners were selected from contest entries among four age categories. The illustration at the bottom is by Annie St. Denis, a senior at Lancaster Catholic High School, and the illustration at the top is by Abigail Sell, an eighth-grader at Annunciation BVM School in McSherrystown. The other two winning images were featured on the cover of the December 9 edition of The Catholic Witness. The four winning pieces will be used as illustrations on Bishop Gainer’s Christmas cards this year. The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; upon those who dwelt in the land of gloom a light has shone. You have brought them abundant joy and great rejoicing, as they rejoice before you as at the harvest, as people make merry when dividing spoils. For the yoke that burdened them, the pole on their shoulder, and the rod of their taskmaster you have smashed, as on the day of Midian. For every boot that tramped in battle, every cloak rolled in blood, will be burned as fuel for flames. For a child is born to us, a son is given us; upon his shoulder dominion rests.

In his typical, dignified way, Will told me that he comes to Face to Face for fellowship. Will has utilized most of our services for adults – meals, health care, social, legal services and art. Will’s answer reflected what I routinely tell people about Face to Face. Namely, that it is not so much WHAT we do, but the WAY we do it that draws people to Face to Face. Face to Face offers an array of complementary services, but with a unique approach. Each guest is welcomed with a smile and most are known by name. Staff, volunteers and guests all contribute to creating this warm and dignified atmosphere. We strive to care for the whole person. This year, the collaboration among programs is more efficient and effective. If a client comes to our social services office with a particular need, and in the course of the session it becomes apparent that there is an underlying legal or health issue, the client is referred to one of our other services. Volunteers in the Dining Room engage in conversations with guests and often help steer them to one or another service.

INTRODUCTION The aim of this sketch is to present some facts about the planting and growth of Catholicit}^ in Pottstown. The treatment is necessarily from a layman's point of view. Much more could be said about the leaders of the people. The clergy, on account of their high position, are better known than the laity, and information relating to the priests can be obtained elsewhere by those who wish, but there is danger of losing all record of the rank and file of the faithful unless they are remembered in a book like this. How much does the present generation know about the early congregation? W'^hen the ones that were acquainted with those early Catholics are, in the course of natural events, removed from this earth, it is to be hoped that in these pages will be found some memorials of those people who laid the foundation of the blessings we now enjoy. This book is not a complete history. It contains merely some of the raw material which may recall to the older parishioners other facts relating to the past.
