The motto of Oakland University, "seguir Vifiute E Camctscenza, "which is
incorporated in its sea1, has a distinguishecl origin, Canto )O(\{, line 120, of
Dante's Inferuo.
These are the final words of Ulysses' great speech to his rnen urging
them to sail on and on in pursuit of knowledge and experience of the
wodd--even beyond the pillars of Hercules, traditionally the lrontier and limit
of legitimate exploration.
This is the threeline stanz^:

ONACADEMIC REGALIA
An edifying note contributed by a
certain anonymous doctor of philosophy.
On at least two solemn occasions during the academic calendar-spring and fall corrunence-
ment-the faculty of the university publicly displays its full academic rcgaka and participates in
the liturgy of processional and
recessional, that curious coming
and going that symbolizes the
cefemony of commencement.
The purposes of commencement
are well known, but the reasons
for the peculiar garb of the celebrants and their odd order of
march are often as obscure to
the audience as they are, in fact,
to the faculty itself. This note
may serve to explain academic
dress and the professional pecking order it costumes.
Contemporary academics are
descendants of clerical schoolmen in the universities of
medieval Europe. Like the clergy, members of the bench and
bar, and other learned professions, medieval scholars were
clothed in healry robes to stay
watm in unheated stone buildings. Like all members of a hierarchical society, the medieval
faculties rejoiced in visible
insignia of rank. These outward
signs of accomplishment and
authority were tailored into the
robes. Although the need for
such voluminous gaments to
keep the scholar from freezing is
long past, the use of them as
emblems of dignity remains.
You will observe that all caps
and gowns worn by our faculty
are black, with certain disturbing exceptions. Black was the
color adopted by mutual agreement among American universities at the end ofthe 19th century. In Europe each university has
its own distinctive gown, varying in color and cut from all others. A European academic assemblage is a far gaudier occasion
than its countelpart in America.
Recently, certain universities in
this country rashly broke the
agreement and authorized robes
in their own colors: for example, the crimson of Harvard and
the green of Dartmouth may be
seen in our ranks. This unsuitable spontaneity has been
frowned on by sister institutions,
yet the mavericks not only persist in their madness, but gain
adherents to their ranks with
each passing year.
There are three basic academic degrees: the baccalaureate or
bachelor's degree, the master's
degree, and the doctorate. A special style of robe is prescribed
for each. The bachelor's gown is
sparsely cut, neat, but a bit
skimpy and unadorned, as befits
apprentices. The master's gown
is still simple, but fuller, sports a
sleeve of extraordinary design
impossible to describe, and has a
hood draped from the shoulders
down the back. Once used to
keep the frost from the tonsured
heads of medieval clerks, the
hood now is solely a badge of a
degree of scholady achievement.
The master's hood is small and
narrow, but disPlaYs the colors
of the institution that awarded
the degree. Ifyou knew the colors of American universities, You
could easily identifY whence
came our masters. The doctoral
robe is the most handsome of
academic raiment. Generous of
cut, of fine aristocratic stuff, it is
faced with velvet and emblazoned with velvet chevrons on
the ample sleeves. You will note
that most of the velvet facings
and chevrons are black, but that
some are of other colors.
According to Personal taste, the
doctor may display the color of
his or her doctoral degree on
the sleeves and facings: light
blue for education, Pink for
music, apricot for nursing,
orange for engineering, and
many more. The royal blue of
the Doctor of PhilosoPhy (Ph.D')
is the most comrnonlY seen in
liberal arts institutions such as
Oakland. The doctor's hood is
the most elegant of all academic
appurtenances. Large and grace-
fuI, it is lined in satin with the
colors of the universitY that
awarded the degree and is bordered with the color of the
degree itself. Most academic costumes include the square cap
called a mortarboard; the doctor's tassel may be either black
or gold
- tassels of all other
degrees are black and stringY.
To instructed eyes, the order
of march in the processional and
recessional reveals the standing
of individuals in the institution's
formal hierarchy. In the Processional the order of entrance into
the hall is, quite fittinglY, from
most junior to most senior. The
traccalaureate candidates enter
first, followed successivelY bY
the masters and doctoral candidates with the whole seParated
from the faculty by a decent
interval. In the facultY order,
the instructors precede the assistant professors who in turn are
fbllowed by the associate Professors. The august full Professors
bring up the rear. After
a
respectful distance come the
deans who in turn are seParated
by a significant space from the
awful majesty of the Platform
paffy, the president, the vice
president, and the members of
the board of trustees. All remain
standing until the board is seated. After the ceremonY, the
order of recessional is the
reverse of the processional. The
greatest dignitaries stream out of
the hall first, with the artftrlly
organized ranks of PrioritY wallowing in their wake.
It is hoped that these notes
may make more intelligible the
spectacle you are witnessing
today. A discerning intelligence
may detect in it manY clues to
an understanding of the academic profession as it confronts the
ambiguities of the future with
ancient wisdom and dignified
confidence.
