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 degrees as
the associate in arts (AA), the associate in science (AS), the bachelor of
arts (BA), the bachelor of science (BS), the bachelor of science in journalism (BSJ), the bachelor of fine arts (BFA), the bachelor of science in general
studies (BSGS), the master's in education, the master of science in political
science, the master of science in international economics and the master of
science in communication. 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 (AACSB) and by the
National Association of Schools of Public Affairs and Administration
(NASPAA), conducts both undergraduate and graduate programs in business. The undergraduate program leads to the degree of bachelor of science
in business administration (BSBA). Graduate programs lead to master's
degrees in business administration (MBA) and public administration (MPA) .
Special master's degrees offered include the master of science in accounting
(MSA), the master of science in finance (MSF), the master of science in
· taxation (MST), and the master's degree in health administration (MHA).
Undergradate certificate programs in accounting and a graduate diploma in
. professional accounting (GDPA) are offered. The advanced professional
certificate (APC) in business and certificate of advanced study in public
administration (CASPA) provide study beyond the master's degree. Programs
leading to the bachelor of science in business (BSBA/JD) or master of business (JD /MBA) or master of public administration (JD /MPA) and the juris
doctor degrees are jointly 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 89 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, 't he president, and the 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 the
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 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 permissible 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.
