0, 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 wer·~ so gallantly streaming~

And the rockets' red glare. the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof thro · the night that our flag was still there.

0, say. does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave~

Academic Costume, the University Mace, and the Northrop Organ

Academic gowns date back to the 14th century, when they served two functions of nearly equal importance: to indicate the academic rank of the wearer and to keep the scholar warm in the drafty stone halls of academia.

The markings, cut, and colors of modern­day academic costume-cap, gown, and sometimes hood-indicate the academic degree, the field of study, and the institution that granted the degree.

Master's gowns, black and untrimmed, have pointed sleeves. Doctor's gowns in the United States traditionally have been black with velvet front facings and crossbars on the sleeves, but in recent years a number of universities have adopted gowns of distinctive school colors.

A new University of Minnesota Ph.D. gown and matching tam made their appearance in 1988 to celebrate the centenary of the first Minnesota doctor of philosophy degree. The new Minnesota gown is maroon-trimmed with black velvet chevrons and gold metallic braid. The traditional gown may still be worn.

The Minnesota hood, which may be worn by anyone with a doctoral degree from the University of Minnesota. is black with a maroon chevron on gold. Each institution has its own pattern of colors on the hood, worn around the neck and down the back of the gown. The length and shape of the hood identify the most advanced degree the wearer has earned, and the velvet edging shows the field: blue for doctor of philosophy, light blue for doctor of education, and pink for doctor of musical arts.

6

At commencement ceremonies hoods are worn by those who already have the doctoral degree. Degree candidates wear gowns appropriate for the degrees they are about to receive, and new doctorates are hooded on stage.

The Mace

The University of Minnesota mace was carried for the first time in 1961 by Regents' Professor of Physics Alfred O.C. Nier at the inauguratio1 of President 0. Meredith Wilson. An professor Philip Morton designed the mace: a crystal sphere four inches in diameter surmounted by the North Star, symbol of the state of Minnesota, on a solid alumhum handle set with the University regents' seal.

The Northrop Organ

Comprising 108 ranks of pipes, the Northrop Auditorium Organ is not only one of the largest orgcns in the Upper Midwest, but is one of the :inest extant examples of a late­romantic concert-hall organ in the United States. BuiH in 1932, the organ is located in the ceiling of the auditorium, above the stage and behind the proscenium, and is played from a console on an elevator platform in the orchestra pit. Unlike many large organs from its era, the Northrop Organ is completely unaltered and entirely intact in its original condition. Persons interested in events that feature the Northrop Organ may contact The Friends of the Northrop Organ, c/o the School of Music, University of Minnesota, 2106 Fourth Street South, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55455.

The University of Minnesota

The University of Minnesota, ranked among the nation's top public universities, reflects the commitment to education of a state that is only 20th in population. It is almost alone among universities in the United States in its combination of three characteristics: an international research university, a land-grant institution with a strong tradition of education and public service, and a metropolitan academic community.

The Twin Cities campus, the University's largest campus, is made up of 20 colleges and offers the full range of academic and professional degrees. A comprehensive campus in Duluth offers undergraduate and graduate programs. The Morris campus offers a four-year liberal arts program. Crookston offers associate and baccalaureate degrees in technical, career-oriented programs. Through the Minnesota Extension Service, the University is present in each of Minnesota's 87 counties.

The University is the primary center in Minnesota (and parts of the surrounding region) for instruction and research in the health sciences, law, engineering, agriculture, and forestry: it offers all of the graduate-level programs in these fields.

When the University was founded as a preparatory school in 1851, Minnesota had been a territory for just two years, and statehood was still seven years away. The school was built on not much more than the pioneers' faith in education. The University

struggled financially in its early years and was forced to close during the Civil War. It reopened in 1867.

Two students received bachelor of arts degrees at the first commencement in June 1873. Since then, the University has granted a total of 483,487 degrees. Students earn undergraduate and graduate degrees in more than 250 fields of study. During the 1993-1994 academic year, the University of Minnesota conferred a total of 10,630 degrees on all its campuses.

The Duluth campus joined the University in 1947, the Morris campus opened in 1960, and the Crookston campus in 1966. Enrollment in fall 1994 was 47,647 on all four campuses. Enrollment was 36,699 on the Twin Cities campus, 7,467 at Duluth, 1,924 at Morris, and 1,557 at Crookston.

University alumni include four Nobel Prize winners, a former chief justice of the United States, two former vice presidents, the heads of Fortune 500 companies, pioneers in medicine, civil rights leaders, top journalists, and men and women who have achieved distinction in every field.

Alumni and their families and friends are always welcome at the University. Alumni are invited to continue their relationship with the University through the Minnesota Alumni Association and its college groups.

The Graduate School

Before 1900. only a handful of American universities had graduate schools to promote. coordinate. and integrate graduate education on their campuses. The University of Minnesota joined the growing movement in 1905 when the regents established the Graduate School as a separate college and named University engineering professor Henry T. Eddy to the deanship. Eight years later. Guy Stanton Ford. a historian and future University of Minnesota president. was named dean. Ford envisioned a community of scholars unified by a single administrative voice. Believing that graduate education begins with able faculty skilled as investigators in the field. Ford worked to attract some of the best teachers and researchers to Minnesota. He obtained funding for research. libraries. laboratories. and financial aid for graduate students. When he left the deanship in 1938. the organizational structure and traditions that today govern graduate education at the

8

University of Minnesota had been established.

The adaptability and flexibility of Ford"s legacy bec3me apparent in the 1940s. when World War II transformed America's view of the world- and of education. Thousands of returning service men and women took advantage of the GI Bill to come to the University of Minnesota. Although the initial wave of students primarily affected undergraduate education, by 1950 some 6.000 graduate students called the University home. Between 1940 and 1960, the University awarded more than 3,000 doctoral degrees. three fourths of the total number of Ph.D.'s gra.nted up to that time.

Today the Graduate School has more than 3.300 faculty members and more than 10.000 students and offers degrees in approximately 175 fields.
