Academic Costume
The history of academic dress reaches back to the early days of
the oldest universities. A statute of 1321 required that all "Doctors, Licentiates, and Bachelors" of the University of Coimbra
wear gowns. It is still a question whether academic dress finds its
sources chiefly in ecclesiastical or in civilian dress. Gowns were
necessary for warmth in the unheated buildings frequented by
medieval scholars. Hoods served as head cover until they were
replaced for that purpose by the skull cap. This was superseded
by a headdress more similar to those now recognized as "academic."
Over the many years of development, a great diversity of academic apparel made its appearance. When American colleges and
universities decided to adopt some suitable system of academic
apparel over a half century ago, it seemed to them best to agree on
some definite system which all might follow. Accordingly, there
was on May 16, 1895, at Columbia University, a conference of
representatives of the governing boards of interested institutions.
The outgrowth of that meeting was the establishment of ''The
Academic Costume Code." The "code" has been revised several
times since its initial approval. The most recent change was in
1959.
The long pointed sleeve to the gown indicates a bachelor's
degree; the long closed sleeve with a slit near the upper part of the
arm indicates a master's degree, and the open sleeve marks a
doctor's degree. Bachelors' and masters' gowns are black and
without trim. Candidates for degrees lesser than the bachelor's
wear gowns of another color. Hoods also denote each different
degree. They vary in shape, size, and length. The larger and more
elaborate designate the doctoral level. The shell of the hood
matches the color of the gown, and is lined with the colors of the
institution conferring the degree. The velvet border of the hood is
of a color indicative of the field of learning to which the degree
pertains. The hoods worn at commencement are for degrees
which have already been received.
The Oxford cap, proper for all degrees, is worn both indoors
and outdoors with academic costume. The colored tassel is also
symbolic of the degree to be conferred and conforms to the hood
trimming.
Under graduate candidates who have earned graduation
honors at the University of Minnesota Technical College are recognized by an insignia worn on the right shoulder.
National Anthem
The Torch
A tradition unique to UMC is the presence of the torch at special
ceremonies. It was designed and constructed in 1968, used in the
last Commencement of the Northwest School of Agriculture, and
then passed from the student council president to a representative of the college Student Senate to symbolize the shift in educational responsibility from the high school to the college. Its light
represents knowledge symbolic of the educational philosophy of
the University of Minnesota.
The Mace
The Mace is used for all University of Minnesota Commencements. The word "mace" is from Middle English and was originally
used to refer to the implement for breaking armor during the
Middle Ages. Today its use is more more peaceful, for it now is a
staff borne by, carried before, or placed near a dignitary as an
insignia of his dignity and authority. First designed in 1961 for the
inauguration of O. Meredith Wilson, the original mace is made of
aluminum and topped by a crystal ball, which symbolizes the
illuminating quality and the clarity of thinking that characterizes
education. The crystal ball is topped by a star representing Minnesota, the North Star State. The staff, weighing forty pounds, is
carried by the most senior professor of the college.
Star Spangled Banner
o say! Can yau see, by the daum 's early light,
What so praudly we hail 'd at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilious flight,
O'er the ramparts we watch 'd, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets ' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that aur flag was still there.
o say, does that Star-Spangled Banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
University of Minnesota
Hymn
Hail, Minnesota
Minnesota, hail to thee! Hail to thee, aur college dear!
Thy light shall ever be a beacon bright and clear;
Thy sons and daughters true will proclaim thee near and far;
They will guard thy fame and adore thy name;
Thou shalt be their Northern Star.
Like the stream that bends to sea, like the pine that seeks the blue,
Minnesota, still for thee thy sons are strong and true;
From thy woods and waters fair, from thy prairies waving far,
At thy call they throng with their shaut and song,
Hailing thee their Northern Star.
