Contemporary academic dress <strong>is</strong> clearly derived from the robes<br />

worn by teachers in European medieval universities and <strong>is</strong> based<br />

upon clerical garb, since the clergy were the first university teachers.<br />

Today, academic dress does not serve its original functions of<br />

providing warmth and/or d<strong>is</strong>tingu<strong>is</strong>hing one’s religious order, but it<br />

does serve to identify the degree held, field of study and the university<br />

from which the wearers received their advanced degrees.<br />

The American university robe comes in different shapes to identify<br />

its wearer as holder of the Bachelor, Master or Doctor degree (three<br />

velvet stripes on each sleeve further identify the doctoral robe) and<br />

<strong>is</strong> usually a closed gown in black. The foreign university robe <strong>is</strong> often<br />

open in the front and <strong>is</strong> frequently found in the Doctor version in a<br />

color other than black, such as red.<br />

It <strong>is</strong> possible for the skilled observer to decipher the degree held<br />

from the robe and also to d<strong>is</strong>cern the subject area and the university<br />

of its wearer according to the mix of colors on the hood. The velvet<br />

band around the neck of the hood <strong>is</strong> frequently colored according<br />

to the scheme below to indicate academic area, and the lining of<br />

the hood appears with the official colors of the degree-granting<br />

institution.<br />

Caps and tassels also vary. Most American and many foreign universities<br />

employ the black mortarboard, while some American and<br />

foreign universities are further identified with unusual shapes and<br />

types of caps. The tassels are usually black, although some universities<br />

vary there also, employing silver and gold.<br />

<strong>Biola</strong> <strong>University</strong> traces its origins to the Bible Institute of Los Angeles establ<strong>is</strong>hed in 1908<br />

by Lyman Stewart, founder and president of the Union Oil Company, and the Rev. T.C.<br />

Horton, two men of extraordinary v<strong>is</strong>ion and commitment to Chr<strong>is</strong>tian higher <strong>education</strong>.<br />

Dedicated to combating the moral decay and faithless liberal<strong>is</strong>m of their day, Stewart and<br />

Horton establ<strong>is</strong>hed the Institute to educate and equip men and women with a relevant<br />

Chr<strong>is</strong>tianity that would impact society at home and abroad. The Institute’s influence was<br />

felt along the entire Western Seaboard from Mexico to Canada and across the Pacific to<br />

China. By 1909, over 540 extension courses were sponsored by the Bible Institute.<br />

The following decades produced immense growth, development and outreach. The school<br />

moved from a two-year to a four-year program offering degrees in theology, Chr<strong>is</strong>tian<br />

<strong>education</strong>, sacred music, and a one-year program in m<strong>is</strong>sionary medicine. By 1949, the<br />

Bible Institute had become a flour<strong>is</strong>hing Bible College and in 1952 launched Talbot<br />

Theological Seminary to further serve the Chr<strong>is</strong>tian community. In 1959, <strong>Biola</strong> received<br />

accreditation from the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.<br />

In the ensuing years, <strong>Biola</strong> College broadened its curricula in the arts, sciences, professions,<br />

and seminary offerings while maintaining its strong foundation in biblical studies.<br />

Throughout the 1960s and 1970s the program base further expanded, and in 1977 the<br />

Rosemead Graduate School of Professional Psychology was acquired.<br />

<strong>Biola</strong> College became <strong>Biola</strong> <strong>University</strong> on July 1, 1981, composed of the School of Arts<br />

and Sciences, Rosemead School of Psychology, and Talbot School of Theology. The School<br />

of Intercultural Studies, with its outstanding program in world m<strong>is</strong>sions, was establ<strong>is</strong>hed<br />

in 1983 and renamed the Cook School of Intercultural Studies in 2009. The School of<br />

Business was added in 1993 and renamed the Crowell School of Business in 2007. The<br />

School of Professional Studies was added in 1994 and a seventh school, the School of<br />

Education was added in 2007.<br />

Ranked by the Carnegie Comm<strong>is</strong>sion on Higher Education as a Doctoral / Research-<br />

Intensive Institution, <strong>Biola</strong> <strong>University</strong> offers four undergraduate degrees in 33<br />

undergraduate majors with more than 120 emphases, 17 master’s degrees and eight<br />

d<strong>is</strong>tinct doctoral degrees. With an outstanding faculty, the <strong>University</strong> has d<strong>is</strong>tingu<strong>is</strong>hed<br />

itself in scholarship and academic excellence.


Experiential programming <strong>is</strong> a hallmark of <strong>Biola</strong> <strong>University</strong>. National and international<br />

opportunities are available where students live and learn in diverse cultural settings.<br />

Some of the programs are <strong>University</strong>-based, while others are held in conjunction with<br />

the Council for Chr<strong>is</strong>tian Colleges and Universities (CCCU). Domestic programs are<br />

offered in Washington D.C., Los Angeles, Berkeley, New York City, Utah and Colorado<br />

Springs. Students also have the opportunity to study internationally in Australia, Costa<br />

Rica, Egypt, Uganda, Oxford, London, Russia, New Zealand and Honduras. Educational<br />

programs are offered in Thailand, Lithuania and Ukraine, and exchange programs are<br />

maintained with schools in Korea and Japan.<br />

<strong>Biola</strong> continues to affirm its commitment to creating significant academic programs that<br />

engage our community with some of the most influential thinkers of our time, while assuring<br />

the spiritual and moral development of our students. Examples include the Master of Arts<br />

degrees in Philosophy of Religion and Ethics, Chr<strong>is</strong>tian Apologetics and Organizational<br />

Leadership.<br />

Since 1908, <strong>Biola</strong> has stood as a beacon of hope for the intellectual, spiritual and moral<br />

growth of its students. As the only national university to require a Chr<strong>is</strong>tian commitment<br />

of its faculty, students and staff, <strong>Biola</strong> <strong>University</strong> <strong>is</strong> building on its legacy of impacting the<br />

world for the Lord Jesus Chr<strong>is</strong>t.<br />
