Campus Host and Hostess Committee

The audience is requested not to take pictures during Commencement. Graduates, parents, and friends are invited to the Director's Reception in Bede Hall.

On appropriate occasions anyone with a college or university degl'ee may wear an academic costume consisting of gown, hood, and cap. By observing the

kind of academic garb a person wears, one can know the name of the college or university from which he was graduated as well as the degree which he holds and, in some cases, the field of his major interest.

The long pointed sleeve of 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 in color and are without trim. Candidates for lesser degrees than the bachelor's wear gowns of a color other than black. Generally, the doc­tor's gown is black also, but some universlties, particularly those abroad, pre­scribe such festive colors as red, crimson, or green. All doctors' gowns have a

velvet trimming on the front facings and crossbars on the sleeves. This trim­ming may be black, or it may match the color of the edging of the hood and thus identify the profession or field of major interest of the wearer.

The only hoods worn at commencement are for degrees which have already been r(>(,pived. The length and shape of the hood indicates whether the wearer has earned a bachelor's, a master's, or a doctor's degree. The velvet edging on the hood indicates the field in which the degree was granted; for example, white: Arts and Letters. Shoulder insignia on the gown of candidates for degrees indicates that the candidates are honor students.

NATIONAL ANTHEM

THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNER

o say! Can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming?

Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight, 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 our flag w~s still there.

o say, does that Star-spangled Banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

THE MACE

The Mace being used in today's commencement is an exact replica of that used for University of Minnesota commencements. The word "mace" is from the Middle English and was originally used to refer to the implement for breaking armor during the Middle Ages. Today its use is much more peaceful, for it now is a staff borne by,. carried before, or placed near a dignitary as an ensign of his dignity and authority. First designed in 1961 for the inaugural of O. Meredith Wilson, the original mace is made of aluminum and topped by a crystal ball, which symbolizes the illuminating quality of education and the clarity of thinking which education should bring. The crystal ball is topped by a star, rep­resentative of Minnesota, the North Star State. The staff weighs forty pounds.

THE TORCH

Another tradition at special ceremonies, unique to UMC, is the presence of the torch. Symbolic of the educational arm of the University of Minnesota, its light represents the knowledge that comes from education. Carved from wood with a bronze finish, the torch is four feet long and tapered like those formerly used in Roman times to light the pathway for travelers. 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.

University of Minnesota Hymn

HAIL, MINNESOTA

Minnesota, hail to thee! Hail to thee, our 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 shout and song, hailing thee

their Northern Star.
