The Sunflower Tradition For 15 or 20 years after the University was established in 1883, none of the graduates wore caps and gowns for gradu- ation ceremonies. At the turn of the century, a sales person offered to rent seniors caps and gowns. At that time, the School of Law was in the basement of the Old Main Building. No one thought to send a message downstairs and invite even a few law seniors to the meeting. A committee of faculty and seniors met and because they had not been invited to the orig- inal meeting and had not been consulted on the advisability of this step, law students refused to wear caps and gowns. Perhaps foreshadowing later events, they then formulated the reason to uphold their decision. This was, that caps and gowns at such a time were tradition to, and rep- resentative of, academic school and not the professional school. Granted, even though judges had worn wigs and gowns for centuries, it was worn for a pur- pose entirely distinct from the purpose of the proposed. The faculty met with the President, and at the meeting a decision was reached that the law students must conform to the wishes of the senior class or they must wear a significant insignia at exercises. It was not in a spirit of conciliation or in appreciation of the dignity of the occasion that the sunflower was chosen as the distinctive insignia. It was agreed, however, that the senior law students would wear white suits. Once more, reasons were advanced to justify the choice of the flower. The sunflower, genus Heliautbus, belongs to a family with world- wide distribution. So, also do lawyers. As the sunflower always keeps its face turned to the sun, the lawyer turns to the light of justice. The Sunflower Ceremony used to be held once during the year, on Commencement Day. As the School of Law student popula- tion grew, it was decided to have two exercises during the year. one in November for the December graduates and anoth- er in May for the May and August graduates. Originally, the sunflower was pinned on each senior by his or her best friend. Today the Associate Dean or Assistant Dean assumes the responsibility.
