Academic symbols date to the Middle Ages and include the mace, chain of o&ce, academic regalia and gonfalons.
6*'�%'4'/10+#.�/#%'
!e mace is a ceremonial sta$ of authority that administrators and faculty at universitiesworldwide carry at the head of academic processions. Traditionally made of wood and clad with metal, the mace was originally a weapon of war used to knock an enemy from his horse or crush his armor. !e mace evolved into a symbol of peaceful leadership and kings encrusted them with jewels and precious metals.
!e UT Dallas mace was handcra)ed from wood from the 600-year-old Treaty Oak tree inAustin, which is said to have shaded Stephen F. Austin as he signed the "rst boundary agreement between American Indians and settlers in 1824. !e tree was also said to be the last of a grove of live oaks where Native Americans once held feasts and religious ceremonies.
!e 4-foot, 10-pound mace includes a sterling silver University seal surrounding a waferembedded with Texas Instruments microchips, which represent the company’s role in the founding of the University. A steel band in the headpiece and the metal foot of the sta$ are fashioned from a scienti"c instrument designed by the UT Dallas Space Sciences Institute and #own aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavor in September 1995. !e mace stands in the president’s o&ce when not in use.
%*#+0�1(�1((+%'
!e UT Dallas chain of o&ce is the traditional symbol used to signify the responsibilities andauthority of the University president. !e links of the chain are engraved with the names of the presidents of the University above a large medallion in the form of the University seal.
!e seal of !e University of Texas at Dallas has as its central feature a shield that is divided intotwo "elds, the upper and the lower. In the lower "eld are the historic wreath — the right half of which is an olive branch, the le) half a live oak branch — and the star of the Great Seal of the State of Texas. In the upper "eld is an open book, a "tting symbol for an institution of learning.
!e shield rests in a circle and contains the motto “Disciplina Praesidium Civitatis.” !e mottois the late Dr. Edwin W. Fay’s terse Latin rendering of the famous quotation from Mirabeau B. Lamar: “Cultivated mind is the guardian genius of democracy.” Around the disk is a larger one, bearing the words “!e University of Texas at Dallas.”

Students in the medieval universities of Paris, Bologna, Oxford and Cambridge organized into guilds and gradually their costumes of #owing robes became distinctive for Bachelors (apprentices) of Arts, masters (teachers) and doctors (teachers who had completed postgraduate studies).
!e academic hood worn by today’s master’s and doctoral students derives from the medievalcloak worn over the gown. !e color on the outside trim of the hood indicates the degree earned; the colors on the hood lining area those of the university granting the degree.
!e academic cap was a later development, "rst conferred as a symbol of the master’s degree.Some caps were sti$, some so); some were square, some found with a tu). !e tassel of today is an elaboration of the tu). Round caps are still used by some institutions. !e square mortar board style originated at Oxford.
In the United States, the Intercollegiate Code has taken the Oxford costume and standardized academic regalia. !e master’s gown has long, pointed sleeves; the doctoral gown has closed sleeves with three bars of velvet on each and velvet facing.
Six colors of tassels are worn by UT Dallas graduates. !e white tassel is worn by those receiving the Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts; the golden tassel is worn by those receiving the Bachelor of Science and Master of Science; the drab tassel is worn by those receiving the Master of Business Administration; the peacock blue tassel is worn by those receiving the Master of Public A$airs; the brown tassel is worn by those receiving the Master of Fine Arts; and the gold tassel is reserved for Doctors and Presidents.

!e gonfalons — or college banners — add a wonderful element of color and pageantry to !eUniversity of Texas at Dallas commencement and convocation ceremonies. !e gonfalon is a long banner that is suspended from a crossbar. !e name derives from medieval Italy, where “gonfalone” was the name given to a community meeting in Florence. Each neighborhood had its own #ag and coat of arms and the word gonfalon eventually came to be associated with the #ag.
All gonfalons have in common several elements that symbolize the uni"ed mission of the University. Among these common elements are the school colors, green and orange. !e color orange represents !e University of Texas System and is derived from the burnt orange UT Austin, the "rst UT school. In the world of academia, the orange color symbolizes engineering. UT Dallas’ green color stems from the green olive and oak branches that are represented in the UT Dallas seal. Olive branches symbolize peace, and oak branches symbolize strength and endurance.
