History of the graduation cap
In the medieval times, the graduation cap was called as motarboard and was commonly wore by scholars who were a part of the clergy. These scholars wore long robes and flat square shaped caps. The cap symbolized intellect, learning and discipline. Overtime as universities became more secular the cap became a symbol of scholarship rather than religion. In the 16th and 17th century, the academic dress and motarboard became standardized in all universities especially in england. Then the tassel was added mainly as a decorative element and to symbolize the transition from student to graduate.
