PAUL RAPPAPORT Doctor of Science Pioneer in Solar Energy Conversion
Recognized by the international scientific community as "father of the solar cell," Paul Rappaport has made significant contributions to the science of solar energy conversion. His discoveries have hastened the ex- ploration of space and his research is helping to open the door for man's conversion of solar energy into abundant electrical power. Mr. Rappaport earned B.S. and M.S. degrees in physics at Carnegie Institute of Technol- ogy, and in 1949 he joined the RCA Laboratories as a solid state physicist in electronic research. He now is director of the Process and Materials Applied Research Laboratory, RCA Laboratories, Princeton, New Jersey. He has made important contributions to Arizona State University science and technology programs during the past five years as a lecturer and solar energy consultant. Among his many prestigious appointments in the sci- entific community is his present chairmanship of the National Academy of Science committee on solar energy conversion. He is an editor of The Journal of Energy Conversion and the author of many significant scien- tific articles.
In recognition of his contributions to the advancement of science, Arizona State University confers on Paul Rappaport the degree Doctor of Science, honoris causa.

HISTORY OF THE ACADEMIC COSTUME
The present-day academic costume seems to have originated at Oxford and Cambridge Universities in the 1300's. As the universities passed from ec- clesiastical control, the academic gown used brighter colors to distinguish it from the totally drab clerical robe. Although colonial American universities used academic gowns based on the British system, people continued to asso- ciate them with the clergy.
In the 1880's, a student movement centering in New England instigated the establishment of a "senior badge," to improve commencement week exer- cises and revive the traditions of university life. In 1893, an inter-collegiate commission established a uniform code for caps, gowns and hoods for the var- ious degrees.
Of the costume's three components, the hood is the most interesting. Ori- ginally it had three uses: as a head covering, as a shoulder cape, and as a bag in which alms could be collected. It is mentioned as early as 1480 in clerical liter- ature. When large wigs were in vogue in Britain, the cape part of the hood was split in front and a narrow neckband inserted. The entire cape and hood was allowed to fall back as it is today, and it was never restored to the original style.
Following is a list of the hood and tassel colors, established by the Int- er-collegiate Code to represent several departments of learning:
Agriculture Maize
Arts, Letters, Humanities White
Business Administration, Commerce, Accountancy Sapphire Blue
Dentistry Lilac
Economics Copper
Education Light Blue
Engineering Orange
Fine Arts, including Architecture
Brown
Forestry Russet
Home Economics
Maroon
Journalism
Crimson
Law

Library Science
Lemon
Medicine Green
Music Pink
Nursing Apricot
Oratory (Speech) Silver Gray
Pharmacy Olive Green
Philosophy Dark Blue
Physical Education
Sage Green
Public Administration, including Foreign Service Peacock Blue
Public Health
Salmon Pink
Science Gold-Yellow
Social Science
Citron
Theology or Divinity
Scarlet
Veterinary Science Gray
Black tassels are correct for all degrees, and colored tassels are worn only by preference. Gold metallic tassels may be worn by doctors or presidents of universities and colleges. The tassel should be worn draped over the left front quarter of the cap.

THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNER
O say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. O say does that Star-Spangled Banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
ALMA MATER ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY
Where the bold sahuaros
Raise their arms on high, Praying strength for brave tomorrows From the western sky; Where eternal mountains
Kneel at sunset's gate,
Here we hail thee, Alma Mater, Arizona State.
-Hopkins-Dresskell
