About the Hooding Ceremony
The colorful gowns and hoods worn as part of the traditional regalia at American academic ceremonies had less glamorous origins — a heavy woolen gown and hood being necessities in the cold halls of medieval European universities. But at least by the time of the Renaissance, academic gowns and hoods began to distinguish scholars by rank and degree, and to bear colorful marks of institutional affiliations. In the New World, distinctive formal academic garb began with the founding of Harvard College in 1636.
American scholars had close ties to the great German universities in the late 19th century, and the brilliant display of academic regalia at the 500th anniversary of the University of Heidelberg in 1886 — as well as at Harvard’s 250th in the same year and Princeton’s own Sesquicentennial in 1896 — encouraged a growing interest in academic ceremony and costume. In 1893, Princeton took the lead in establishing a code for U.S. academic attire; Princeton Trustee Colonel John James McCook’s 1894 intercollegiate statutes continue in force today almost without alteration.
Hoods embody the most important symbolism, and distinguish the wearer by both rank and academic discipline. Masters’ hoods are generally shorter by one foot than doctors’. Each is bordered by a velvet band in the color assigned to the discipline in which the degree is granted. The colors you see this evening are blue for philosophy (as in doctor of philosophy, or “Ph.D.”), peacock blue for public affairs, orange or yellow for engineering, white for arts and letters, brown for architecture, and light brown for finance. The lining of each hood bears the degree-granting university’s own colors — at Princeton, orange with a black chevron, colors adopted by the undergraduate Class of 1869 since William III of the House of Nassau, in whose honor the University’s first building was named, was also Prince of Orange.
While Princeton’s Graduate School was formally established in 1900, graduate education at the University dates back to the institution’s earliest days, and doctoral degrees were awarded beginning in the late 19th century. This is the 22nd year of the Hooding ceremony honoring advanced degree recipients.

Graduate Mentoring Awards
The Graduate School and the Harold W. McGraw Center for Teaching and Learning annually recognize faculty members for their exceptional work as mentors to graduate students at Princeton. Current and former students nominate faculty for these awards, and recipients are chosen by a committee of faculty and graduate students. This year we recognize four outstanding faculty members from the major academic divisions of the University.
