Suffolk University
Suffolk University is a dynamic urban university with more than five
thousand students of all ages enrolled in day and evening programs in its
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, School of Management and Law
School. The University is located on Beacon Hill in the heart of Boston and
is accessible from all parts of the metropolitan area .
Founded as a law school in 1906, the University developed by adding a
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences in 1934 and a School of Management
in 1937. On April 29, 1937, the Law School, College of Liberal Arts and
Sciences and the School of Management were chartered as Suffolk University by the Massachusetts General Court. The University is accredited by
the New England Association of Schools and Colleges.
The Law School, accredited by the American Bar Association and the
Association of American Law Schools, awards the juris doctor (JD) degree
to its graduates. The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences awards bachelor
of arts (BA) and bachelor of science (BS) degrees in fifteen academic departments and master's degrees in education (MS and Ed.M.) . A certificate of
advanced graduate study (CAGS) is awarded for study beyond the Master's
Degree in several fields of Education and Human Services. The School of
Management, accredited by the American Assembly of Collegiate Schools
of Business and by the National Association of Schools of Public Affairs
and Administration, conducts undergraduate programs in business administration leading to the degree of bachelor of science in business administration
(BSBA) and graduate programs in both business and public administration
leading to master's degrees in business (MBA) and public administration
(MPA) . An advanced professional certificate (APC) is offered for study
beyond the master's degree. A joint program leading to the master of public
administration and the juris doctor degrees is offered by the School of
Management and the Law School.
Since 1906, when Gleason L. Archer established a law school for working adults, Suffolk University has graduated close to 40,000 students who
have taken their places in the professional world. Among the University's
alumni are some of New England's outstanding jurists, attorneys, businessmen and women, teachers, writers and scientists.
During its 84 years, Suffolk University has grown in size and in the
scope and quality of its academic programs. As it develops new programs
to meet emerging needs, Suffolk University remains guided by Gleason
Archer's commitment to the community and to its people, and by a concern
for access, success, and excellence.

ACADEMIC ATTIRE

The academic attire worn during the commencement exercises by the
graduates, faculty members, deans, trustees, the president and other members of the academic procession had its origin during the Middle Ages at
the medieval universities. The long black gown, the basic garment of academic attire; was worn for warmth and to conceal food and sometimes
wine to be consumed during lecture recesses. The square cap, the shape of
which resembles a book, a mason's mortarboard, or the quadrangle shape
of the Oxford University campus, usually has a black tassel indicating a
bachelor's or master's degree, or a gold tassel indicating a doctoral degree.
The hood, which is the most colorful raiment, was used as a cowl, a cape,
an alms sack or to protect the wearer's wig from the elements.
In modern times, the wearing of academic attire was codified by the
American Council on Education. Contemporary guidelines specify that the
standard color for caps and gowns is black, that the material be cotton
poplin, that there be no trimming on the gowns worn by recipients of baccalaureate or master's degrees, that the doctoral degree gown may be faced
with black velvet trim with three bars of black velvet across the sleeves,
that the trimming of the doctoral hood be of velvet and signify the academic area of the degree, and that the hood lining reflect the official color
or colors of the college or university conferring the degree . The hood trimming color white designates bachelor of arts; yellow: bachelor and master
of science; magenta: bachelor of science in journalism; drab olive: bachelor
and master of business administration; peacock blue: bachelor and master
of public administration; blue: master of education and certificate of advanced
graduate study in education; and purple: juris doctor (law) degree.
Within certain permissable limits, universities may vary the style and
color of the caps and gowns worn by their graduates. These variations may
be noticed in the academic procession.
