ACADEMIC PROCESSIONAL &
CEREMONIAL CUSTOMS
The pageantry of commencement is rooted in traditions that are centuries old. The following information is
designed to assist you in understanding the significance of these ceremonial rites.
Processional
The academic processional is an
official prelude to the commencement ceremony. The University
marshal leads the procession,
bearing the University Mace,
which represents the authority
of both the University and of the
state. Following the University
marshal are the members of
the platform party including
trustees, recipient(s) of honorary
degrees, and the president of the
University, who wears a medallion with inscriptions representing the history of the state and
the University. Next come the
members of the faculty followed by
the degree candidates.
The marching order of candidates
customarily reflects the historical
order in which the various colleges
or schools of the University were
established. Led by marshals, the
candidates for degrees march in
with their respective colleges.
Academic Attire
The academic regalia worn at
commencement is of medieval
origin. The scholars of Bologna,
Paris, Oxford, Cambridge, and
Heidelberg dressed in a manner
to distinguish themselves from the
merchants and other townsmen.
When the universities first came
into being in the 11th century,
“learned clerks” robed themselves
in gowns, caps, and hoods, thus
signifying the distinction between
“town” and “gown.” As additional
universities came into being, their
faculties adopted distinctive forms
of the gown and hood for bachelor’s,
master’s, and doctoral degrees.
These customs are reflected in
today’s academic attire. In Europe,
a professor generally wears the
four
type of garment customary in
the university where he or she is
lecturing. In the United States,
however, professors wear the gown
and hood of the university where
they earned their highest degree.
All commencement ceremony
participants at The University of
Akron are attired in the appropriate academic apparel. University
marshals are distinguished by
their blue and gold robes and
Elizabethan caps.
Caps and Tassels
The cap, also called the mortarboard, may have been derived
from the squarish cap worn by
the masons of the Middle Ages,
or perhaps was suggested by the
shape of the books which occupied
so much of the scholar’s time. In
the United States, the cap is usually flat and square in shape. In
Europe, one sometimes sees caps
of other varieties. Attached to a
button atop the mortarboard is a
tassel; associate’s are often silver
in color; bachelor’s and master’s
are black or of a color appropriate to the college from which the
candidate is being graduated; and
doctor’s are usually golden.
faced down the front with velvet
panels and has bell-shaped sleeves
adorned with three velvet Bars.
Hoods
A triangular fold of cloth worn over
the back of the gown, the hood
is faced with colors which denote
the field of study represented by
the wearer’s degree. The colors of
the lining indicate the college or
academic discipline in which the
degree is granted. Recipients of
the doctor of philosophy degree
wear royal blue hoods, and their
caps feature golden tassels. Those
who have earned the doctor of
education degree wear light blue
hoods and tassels.
Colors
The various colleges and academic
disciplines of The University of
Akron are represented by the
following hood and tassel colors:

Gowns
Originally, the gown may simply
have been a type of overcoat to
protect the teacher from the cold
in unheated buildings. The cut
or style appears to derive from
ecclesiastical attire and most often
is black. The associate’s and bachelor’s gowns generally have
a closed front and open sleeves.
The master’s gown more often has
long, closed sleeves, from which
the arms extend through a slit at
the wrist. The doctor’s gown is
Summit College,
Bachelor’s
Banners
The impressive backdrop for the
ceremony consists of the banners
of the twelve colleges and the
Graduate School. Each banner
bears the name and founding
date of the college it represents.
Banners were first instituted at
The University of Akron in the
spring of 1995.
The University Seal
and the
Presidential
Medallion
A seal serves to confirm, ratify, or
secure an emblem, symbol, or
word that is used to certify a
signature or authenticate a
document. The use of official
seals dates back to the Norman
Conquest in 1066. During the
next century, seals were used
throughout England to authenticate documents. Persons of
rank had unique seals befitting
their status. Most seals were
circular or oval-shaped and bore
heraldic designs embossed on
their faces.
The use of seals became part
of academic tradition in the
medieval university and continues
to the present. The University
of Akron, for example, displays
its seal on diplomas presented
to its graduates.
The coat of arms shown on the
University’s seal includes an open
book and quill, representative of
the University’s original liberal
arts curriculum. A lamp of learning shown against a city skyline
depicts the University’s metropolitan setting. Three diagonal bars
represent the private, municipal,
and state stages of the University’s
history. The phoenix, a mythical bird that is consumed by fire
and rises from its ashes to achieve
greater glory, is a tribute to the
University’s rebirth following the
devastating fire of 1899. The seal
also displays the original Buchtel
College motto, Fiat Lux (let there
be light).
The University’s current Presidential Medallion, as designed in
the year 2000 by renowned artist Don Drumm, consists of the
University seal, set in a necklace of
pewter. Originally, the Presidential
Medallion was presented by the
Alumni Association in 1970, commemorating the University’s centennial. The medallion is a symbol
of the authority of the president,
as bestowed by the Board of
Trustees, that traditionally is worn
by the president on important
ceremonial occasions.
Ceremonial
Mace
University Seal
The Ceremonial Mace
The Ceremonial Mace was presented to The University of Akron
by the Alumni Association on
Founders Day 1970, in recognition
of the University’s founding 100
years earlier as Buchtel College.
Since ancient times, maces have
been symbols of authority for
many academic and governmental
bodies. The University of Akron’s
Ceremonial Mace is carried by the
University marshal at all formal
academic occasions.
The most distinguishing feature
of the Ceremonial Mace is the rising phoenix. A mythical bird that
rose anew from its ashes to achieve
even greater glory, the phoenix is
a fitting symbol for the University
whose predecessor, Buchtel
College, suffered a disastrous fire
in 1899 and was rebuilt through the
generous support of alumni and
the community.

MR. WARD J. “TIM” TIMKEN, JR.
At 43 years old, Mr. Timken is chairman of one of the world’s leading producers of highly
engineered bearings, alloy steel, components and services. With operations in 27 countries and a workforce of 17,000, The Timken Company posted annual sales of $3.1 billion in 2009, and paid its 351st
consecutive quarterly dividend. Under his direction, the company is leveraging its traditional strengths to
explore new opportunities in the fields of friction management and power transmission.
A native of Canton, Ohio, Mr. Timken earned a bachelor of arts degree from Georgetown
University in 1989 and an MBA from the Darden School at the University of Virginia in 1993. He opened
and managed the Washington, D.C., office of McGough & Associates, a Columbus, Ohio-based government affairs consulting firm. In 1992, he joined The Timken Company and held a number of key posts
in Europe and Latin America during the 1990s. Mr. Timken was elected to the board in 2002. He also
served as corporate vice president, with responsibilities for strategy development. In 2004, he became
president of the company’s steel group, leading it to record levels of profitability. The following year
Timken was named chairman.
Approximately 430 University of Akron alumni are employed by The Timken Company and
many more are retirees. The company is a strong partner in the University’s co-op program, offering
valuable experience to students from diverse majors.
Mr. Timken has enhanced the continuing spirit of partnership between The Timken
Company and The University of Akron by supporting The Timken International Scholarship, which
makes available full academic undergraduate assistance to the sons and daughters of full-time Timken

Timken Foundation and the Timken Charitable Trust.
Mr. Timken is the recipient of the AISI’s 2009 Gary Memorial Medal, the Canton Regional
Chamber of Commerce 2009 Award of Merit, and the 2009 Sales Executive of the Year award from the

THE ALMA M ATER
Chorus
The Alma Mater for The University of Akron was written by the Rev. Augustus B. Church who was the last
Universalist clergy to serve as president of Buchtel College (1901–1912). He was also the first person to
assume the board responsibilities of chief executive officer. In fact, Church served both as president and
as a trustee of the institution — as well as pastor of the First Universalist Church of Akron. Dr. Church
understood the importance of higher education as a means to improve society, and he worked diligently
on projects to successfully link the educational efforts of Buchtel College with the needs of a growing
city. During his presidency, Buchtel College offered the world’s first courses in rubber chemistry (1909).

THE AKRON BLUE
AND
GOLD
The University of Akron’s fight song, “The Akron Blue and Gold,” was written in 1939 by Fred Waring,
nationally known composer and leader of the wildly-popular Band, “Fred Waring and the
Pennsylvanians.” In response to a request from the University’s student newspaper, Waring wrote
“a distinctive song” for The University of Akron. “The Akron Blue and Gold” premiered over his
NBC hookup on November 17, 1939, and has been used as the University’s fight song ever since.

THE UNIVERSITY
OF
AKRON: A PROUD TRADITION
O
T
he Ohio Universalist Convention established a small, liberal arts college in Akron
in 1870 and named it for one of the city’s prominent industrialists, John R. Buchtel.
It was Buchtel who led a group of 100 individuals and 13 businesses in a fundraising
campaign to build the college. On July 4, 1871, thousands of area citizens turned out
to witness the results of that initiative, joining in a great celebration as the cornerstone
was laid for a single but impressive structure that constituted Buchtel College. Both a
visionary and a pragmatist, Buchtel believed that the vigor of any city is closely tied to
the proximity of a high quality institution of higher education. Decades of progress,
both for the city and for the college he helped to launch, have proven him right. With
an enrollment of approximately 29,300 students from throughout Ohio, the United
States, and 84 foreign countries, the successor of Buchtel College is one of the largest
principal campuses in Ohio. Long committed to an academic tradition which stresses
excellence, The University of Akron offers more than 300 associate, baccalaureate,
and master’s degree programs and options, as well as 18 doctoral degree programs and
four law degrees. Since 1914, the University has been accredited by the North Central
Association of Colleges and Schools, and it is currently classified at the highest level
as a comprehensive, doctoral-degree-granting institution. Today, nearly 151,000 of its
alumni live and work around the world.
