Chain of Office

For centuries, ceremonial chains of office have honored the highest officials of educational institutions. A chain of office is worn as part of the pomp and ceremony at official public celebrations of the college or university, such as the inauguration of a new president and at commencement events. Along with the academic mace, the official chain of office is highly regarded as part of the enduring legacy and permanent symbology of the institution.
