6 THE CEREMONY OF GRADUATION The University of Wollongong has offered university studies for more than 30 years and is known for its energy and innovation in fields ranging from creative arts to communication technology. This University looks towards the 21 st century but, in the customs and ceremony of a graduation, it asserts its inheritance from the Universities of the 12th and 13th centuries. For ne arly 900 years, Universities have educated and trained leaders of society and produced ideas and instruments of great social and scientific change. Yet, they proudly retain medieval traditions which still visibly celebrate both the achievements of the scholar and graduate and the Universities' long commitment to the search for knowledge. The academic titles and terms of address, the music and, especially, the academic dress distinguish and colour a graduation ceremony. The gowns are modified versions of medieval University dress: all masters and scholars were then members of the clergy. This university has chosen blue gowns for all diplomas and for the bachelor and master degrees. The hoods, originally a useful head cover, are lined with different coloured silks and trims to denote the type of award - for example, the Bachelor of Arts hood is lined with gold silk and the commerce hood with emerald green. The degree graduates wear blue, tasselled trenchers or mortar boards which were introduced in 17th century Oxford and Cambridge. The dress for the doctoral degrees, for example Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and Doctor of Creative Arts (DCA), is distinguished by red facing on the blue gowns and black velvet Tudor Bonnets with coloured Tassels. The higher doctorates of Science, Letters and Laws have red gowns faced with blue and a Tudor Bonnet tasselled with silver, gold and purple respectively. The Chancellor, gowned in black brocade trimmed with gold lace and braid, is the chief dignitary and leader of the University community. The Chancellor presides over meetings of the governing body, the University Council, and confers degrees and diplomas in Council's name. A graduation ceremony is in many ways an historical pageant but is above all a celebration of individual achievement and the continuing role of the university.
