An excellent presentation of how a US college adopted academic dress, and the social needs it was filling.

If you ever wanted to know how an inaugural lecture works in the Netherlands, or what I talked about in mine, I put the materials here. I talked about bottlenecks of diagnostic systems, problems of clinical and scientific utility, and how to make a better DSM-6. eiko-fried.com/blog/my-inau...

Congregation of @burgonsociety.bsky.social today - hearing about the history of St Mary’s University and its academic dress. Talks from new fellows about Italian and American examples. Plus the choices that mergers bring for degree awarding powers in England.

Matriculations are underway across Cambridge! 🎓 Postgraduate students at @CaiusCollege are among the first to don their gowns and be formally admitted to membership of the University. We couldn’t be more excited to see the University and the city come alive with our amazing students once again.

It is a Gilbern GT- confirmed by Googling the reg number. It was also apparently owned by an academic- Dr. Paul Scott, a Cambridge radioastronomer who bought it new in 1965 and raced it until the 80s. The car still exists and is owned and raced by Gilbern Owners' Club chairman Brian Gent.
