Doctor of Science (D.Sc) Hood, University of Michigan, undated

The Doctoral hoods collection contains three doctoral hoods and two long bags. The first hood with gold velvet trim (Medicine) is from a Doctor of Science graduate at the University of Michigan; the second hood with purple velvet trim (Law) is from a Legum Doctor graduate at New York University; and the third hood is from a Doctor of Science graduate at the University of Oregon. The two long fabric bags are made of black corduroy and green velvet. The origin of these bags is unknown, but it appears that they could have been a part of the graduation regalia. Although the collection is dated circa 1980 by a previous archivist, the exact dates and provenance of the hoods cannot be determined.
