TRADITION OF ACADEMIC DRESS The history of academic dress dates from at least the twelfth century
when long gowns were needed for warmth in the unheated buildings used by
medieval scholars. In England, both Oxford and Cambridge made academic
dress a matter of university surveillance, and both institutions regulated what
colors, trim, etc. could be used by faculty and students. In May 1895, repre~
sentatives from American institutions of higher learning met at Columbia Un~
iversity and formulated a "code of academic dress" which has generally been
followed since that time, although some revisions were initiated in 1932 and
in 1960.
The dress code recommended that gowns for the bachelor's degree should
be worn closed and should have pointed sleeves. Gowns for the master's degree
can be worn open or closed, but their sleeves are oblong in shape with open
wrists. Gowns worn by those holding the doctorate degree also can be worn
open or closed and feature bell shaped sleeves.
Gowns from different institutions vary in color, but most are black.
Neither the bachelors' nor the masters' gowns feature trim, but doctoral gowns
are faced down the front with black velvet and hold three bars of the same
fabric across the sleeves. Sometimes these facings and sleeve~bars are velvet
of the color distinctive of the subject to which the degree pertains, thus agree~
ing in color with the binding or edging of the hood appropriate to the parti~
cular doctoral degree of the wearer.
Hoods are to be of the same color and material as the gowns and are lined
with the official color (s) of the college or university conferring the degree.
Bindings or edgings for the hoods reflect the color distinctive of the subje\:t to
which the degree pertains. Bachelors' hoods are three feet in length; masters'
hoods are three and one half feet in length; doctoral hoods measure four feet
in length.
For all academic purposes, including the trimmings of gowns, hoods,
and tassels, the colors associated with the different academic subject field are
as follows:
Agriculture
Arts, Letters, Humanities
Commerce, Accountancy, Business
Dentistry
Economics
Education
Engineering
