I have a plan, whenever I get around to applying for my Master's degree, to acquire a properly medieval set of master's robes to wear as garb. I have persuaded Gwynnin, who already has his Master's, that this would be a good idea.

Does anyone know anything about medieval scholarly garb?

Okay but I'm going to wear my dark lord of the Sith robes. After all I have documentation that they exsisted "A long time ago"

Niccola de Bracton did a medieval university master's thesis and installation ceremony for her Laurel, since she got her Laurel for research into medieval universities. I'll do some googling and see if I can find her notes online.

Darn it - I found notes for her ceremony, but she doesn't talk about the IMPORTANT PART - the costume!

OK, I won't try to kill you for your garb, I'll try to kill you for being EVIL!

Thanks for the lead!
