Nineteen Hundred Ninety-eightROCKEFELLER MEMORIAL CHAPELSEP 08 1998THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGOThe University of Chicago was founded in 1892 by John D. Rockefeller, biblicalscholar William Rainey Harper, and Chicago-area Baptists. The University'sArticles of Incorporation commit the institution to excellence in both undergraduateand graduate education, an explicit policy of co-education, and an atmosphere of non­sectarianism.Harper agreed to become the first president of the University on the conditionthat he be allowed to establish a university that would-be unlike any other. He con­ceived of a university that would emphasize the creation of new knowledge and"make the work of investigation primary." To this end, the University has alwaysbeen dedicated to excellence in research and has sought the most distinguished schol­ars for its faculty.Over the years, the University and its faculty have had a major impact onAmerican higher education. Faculty scholarship has shaped several essential disci­plines and established important and distinctive "Chicago schools" in such disparatefields as economics, evolutionary biology, sociology, literary criticism, anthropology,and law and economics. Sixty-nine Nobel laureates have been members of the facul­ty, researchers, or students at the University. Programmatic innovations originatingat the University include the invention of the four-quarter system, the establishmentof a coherent program ofgeneral education for undergraduates, the initiation of a full­time medical school teaching fact;llty, and the development of extension courses andprograms in the liberal arts for adults.The University includes an undergraduate College, the William B. andCatherine V. Graham School of General Studies, four graduate divisions (BiologicalSciences, Humanities, Physical Sciences, and Social Sciences), six graduate profes­sional schools (Graduate School of Business, Divinity School, Law School, PritzkerSchool of Medicine, Irving B. Harris Graduate School of Public Policy Studies, andSchool of Social Service Administration), and a diverse collection of academic sup­port units and resources including libraries, research institutes, clinics, museums, the­aters and a university press. The University has a faculty of more than 1,200 andan enrollment of over 12,000 students. The 200 acre campus is located along theMidway Plaisance in Hyde Park, a residential community on Lake Michigan southof Chicago's Loop.The University's English Collegiate Gothic buildings, built of gray Indianalimestone, were designed to frame shady, green quadrangles. Contemporary campusbuildings have been designed in keeping with the original Gothic theme while draw­ing from the tradition of great modern architecture for which the city of Chicago isfamous. Eero Saarinen and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe designed striking buildingsfor the Law School and the School of Social Service Administration. The NationalTrust for Historic Preservation praised the University for its insistence on architec­tural continuity over a "a century of social and academic change."On July 1, 1993, Hugo F. Sonnenschein became the University's eleventhPresident.ORDER OF EXERCISESFor the Conferring of DegreesThree o'clockHUGO F.

The basic elements of American academic attire arethe robe) the hood) and the cap.The style of the robe indicates the rank of the wearer's degree or) in some cases)the wearer's office: a plain black robe for bachelors; a black robe with long) crescent­shaped sleeves for masters; and a black robe with velvet front panels and velvet barson the sleeves for doctors or university officials. Beginning at the Spring Convocationin 1965) the doctor's robe of the University of Chicago has been in the school color)maroon.The hood represents the specific degree and the institution by which it was grant­ed. The size of the hood indicates the rank. The color of the velvet border indicatesthe area of study (white for arts) yellow for science) blue for philosophy) green formedicine) purple for law) and red for divinity).
