Traditionally, students wear black hoodswhile the bachelor uses a white. After the collation, the students throw the black hat in the air, as a sign that they are leaving their student status behind. The hat is a representation used for centuries as a symbol of competence, in an analogy to the royal crown. In this way, it is also present in other power recognition ceremonies.

In the naming ritual of new cardinalsfor example, they receive, kneeling, the cape of purple color from the pope. The accessory was even adapted for 1st and 2nd grade graduations. Although in this case the students are still students, they change phases!
