FRIDAY, MARCH FOURTEENTH • NINETEEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY.EIGHT The Winter Commencement of Michigan State University UNIVERSITY AUDITORIUM • EAST LANSING The Winter Commencement of Michigan State University ACADEMIC COSTUME The pageantry and color at commencement exercises reveal a record of academic achievement of the various individuals taking part in the exer cises. The following brief description is given that the audience might more readily interpret such achievement. In 1894, the Intercollegiate Commission, a group of leading American educators met at Columbia University to draft a code which would serve to regulate the design of gowns and hoods indicating the various degrees as well as the colors to indicate various faculties . This code has been adopted by most of the colleges and universities in America and its use has made identification of scholastic honors an immediate activity. Three types of gowns are indicated by the code. Those worn by the bachelors are made of black worsted material and have long, pointed sleeves. Those worn by masters may be made either of black silk or black wool and have long, closed sleeves with the arc of a circle near the bottom. The arm goes through a slit, giving the appearance of short sleeves for the master's gown. Doctor's gowns are made of black silk and are faced with velvet. The sleeves are full, round and open with three bars of velvet on each sleeve. The velvet facing of bars on the sleeves may be black or the same color as the binding of the hood. Hoods are made of material identical with the gown and are lined in the official academic color of the institution conferring the degree. If the institution has more than one color, the chevron is used to introduce the second color. Colored velvet or velveteen binds the hoods and indicates the department or faculty to which the degree pertains. Historical associations of color have been continued to signify the various faculties . Art and letters can be recognized by the white, taken from the traditional white fur trimming of the Oxford and Cambridge Bachelor of Arts hoods. Red, long traditional of the church, indicates theology. The royal purple of the King's court signifies law. The green of medicinal herbs immediately identifies a medical degree. Philosophy is signified by the co l o~' of wisdom and truth, blue. Because through re search untold wealth has been released to the world, science is identified by golden yellow. Oxford pink indicates music and russet brown, the color of dress worn by ancient English foresters, indicates forestry. The wording of the degree determines the color of the velvet of the hood. For example, a Master of Science in Engineering would be signified by golden yellow (science) instead of the orange of engineering. A Bachelor of Engineering would wear the orange of Engineering. At Michigan State University, it is custo mary to identify the bachelors graduating from the different departments of study by tassels of the official department color as established by the Intercollegiate Code.

East La nsing I 4 MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY As one of the leading land-grant universi ties and the first agricultural college in the nation, technical, Michigan State University provides a practical and cultural education for its student body, in addition to extensive research and exten sion services to the people of Michigan. Now in its 103d year, Michigan State University has grown from three buildings and six faculty members to one of the ten largest universi ties in the nation. It has approximately 2,000 staff members engaged in teaching, research and public service, 98 permanent and 450 temporary buildings, and almost 4,200 acres of land, including 900 acres 111 the campus area proper. Founded in 1855 to educate youth for the major occupation of that day-farming-Michigan State University has broadened its offerings as young people, preparing for other vocations, h ave sought the advantages of university training. To day, Michigan State University has eight colleges Agriculture, Business and Public Service, Commu nication Arts, Education, Engineering, Home Eco nomics, Science and Arts, Veterinary Medicine and the School for Advanced Graduate Studies, and offers 130 different courses of study, 70 of these on the graduate level. This excludes the curriculum of the Basic College, which has been recognized as one of the most progressive ideas for higher education in the nation today. Michigan State University continually strives to expand its service to the people of the state through the Agricultural Experiment Station, the Cooperative Extension Service and the Con tinuing Education Service. The Agricultural Ex periment Station conducts research on campus and a t seven off-campus substations. Through the Mich igan Cooperative Extension Service, more than 319,000 families are r eached with technical in formation on agriculture, homemaking and the 4-H Club program_ The field staff, located in every county, extends M -S.U.'s campus into every town ship in Michigan. During the 1956-57 year, the Continuing Education Service reached more than 100,000 persons in programs conducted both on campus and in local communities. The Continuing Educa tion Service also directs the :rvLS.U. Evening College. Today, more than 20,000 students from Michigan and other states and from nations all over the world are a ttending the University a t East Lansing - about 9,000 of whom are housed on the campus proper. With about 85 percent of these students coming from communities in every section of the state, Michigan State University is doing its part to fill the greatly increased demand of the younger generations for higher education. In the agricultural, business and prorc ~ ­ sional fields, Michigan State University has proved its worth to the people of the State of Michigan, paying dividends many times the appropriation for its maintenance each year by the state and national governments. Noted for its democratic and friendly spirit, the student body harmonizes with the Uni versity faculty to make Michigan State University a first-class educational institution.
