A GUIDE TO ACADEMIC ATTIRE The caps, gowns, and hoods worn at university functions date back to the Middle Ages. Monks and students of those days wore them to keep warm in the damp, drafty 12th century castles and halls of learning. VARIOUS DEGREES Each college degree has a distinctive hood and gown. If more than one degree is held, the gown and hood of the highest degree are worn. The gowns for the bachelor’s degrees have square yoke with shirring across the shoulders and back. The gown is primarily distinguished by its full open sleeves, which come to a point. The holder of the master’s degree wears a gown with a yoke similar to the bachelor’s, but the distinctive long, narrow sleeves are closed at the end and trail below the arms. The arm comes through a slit part way down the sleeve. ACADEMIC COLORS It is the hood that gives color and meaning to the academic attire. The border colors for the various academic disciplines are: Accountancy. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .........................
