Graduation Cap and Gown History: Distinctive Shapes
You may wonder, what is with that cardboard square shape? The answer is debatable.
- Most historians believe it merely signifies the form of a book to give a scholarly appearance or is meant to represent the shape of the quad within the Oxford campus.
- Some people believe the reason the cap is square because it represents the mortar board of a master workman. Despite the uncertainty of origin, the style has remained accepted at most institutions.
Why Do Grads Wear A Graduation Gown And Graduation Hat?
The History Behind The Cap And Gown
The first European universities were founded by clergy in the 12th and 13th century, with most classes being conducted in a church or a nearby building.
Back in the day, central heating didn’t exist. Introducing a gown and a hood was for the purpose of keeping students warm.
Historians also believe that gowns and hoods were introduced in order to distinguish students’ religious and scholarly status from the laypeople of the town in which they studied.
- While medieval universities initially inspired the academic dress, the first recognized schools that officiated graduation attire were Oxford and Cambridge.
- The graduation hat has changed throughout the centuries and with many variations. The most prevalent style is the mortarboard cap which pairs with standard graduation gowns.
- The cap and gown symbolize recognition and achievement. While hoods are no longer in use for warmth, they remain in use as a decorative piece representing one’s field of study.
- In conclusion, the cap and gown tradition has been alive and evolving for centuries and will always remain an important part of one’s academic experience.
