Hail to our alma mater dear,To you we sing this hymn.

Forever wave the blue and gold,We pledge our hearts to you.
Bles’d with the desert’s golden sun,Under a sky of blue,

When we are gone from thy grand halls,There’s still the blue and gold,We’ll never falter in our pride,
We pledge our love to you.

In the 12th Century, as scholars began to organize themselves into guilds called “universities,” a distinctive costume called the “scholar’s gown” also began to emerge. The gown was originally black to better hide ink stains and voluminous for warmth. It also had a hood that could be pulled over the head for protection from rain and served in fair weather as a carrying pouch for such scholarly essentials as chalk, spare pens, or boar’s tooth for smoothing the surface of parchment, a creamy or yellowish material made from dried and treated sheepskin, goatskin, or other animal hide, used in former times for books and documents. The square mortarboard worn today is a stylized representation of a stocking cap especially designed to hold a small book secure atop a scholar’s head.
Scholarly rank and discipline are indicated by the cut of the gown and color of the hood and tassel:
• The associate’s and bachelor’s gown is black and untrimmed, has pointed sleeves, and reaches only to the knees.
• The master’s gown is black and untrimmed but has closed sleeves in the shape of an arc.
• The doctoral gown is black with black velvet panels and having three velvet bars on bell shaped sleeves.
