The process of becoming a knight required yean t train- in in the art of war, social ((induct, and to some extent formal education. The knighting ceremony was ordinarily of a religious nature. On the day prior to receiving his title, the s(jniic tasted and prayed. That evening he went to some deserted c hurt h to pass tlic night in lonely vigil. In the morning] alter the bath of purification, he would attend Mass and receive Holy Communion. Alter Mass the squire was clothed in his armor at which time he was presented with the sword and golden spurs, the foremost symbols of knighthood. Then kneeling before the king, he was dubbed a knight. The king would strike him three times with the flat cit his sword on the neck or shoulder saying, Be thou a good knight. At the end of the ceremony, the new knight publically vowed to protect the poor, the oppressed, and the church. The bachelor degree is conferred upon students who suc- cessfully complete four years of academic training on the college level. There is a certain amount of dignity attached to this degree. The college graduate is considered an au- thority on that phase of endeavor in which he has special- ized. On the day the student graduates he is required to wear the academic robe which is the mark of his candidacy. During the ceremony he is presented with the diploma and hood, the symbols of his achievement.
