Inauguration of Marist College President
The Mace
The Marist College mace supports a three-sided crown emblazoned with the College seal. The crown symbolizes the College’s three goals: excellence in education, the importance of community, and dedication to service.
The Seal
The Marist College seal features the location of the institution, Poughkeepsie, New York; the interlaced letters A and M; the date, 1929, the date that college-level courses were first offered; and 12 stars. The letters and stars are symbols of Mary, reflecting the traditions of the college’s founders. The center is crowned with the motto Orare et Laborare, To Pray and To Work.
The Medallion
The medallion is worn as part of the president’s regalia. It includes the Marist College seal and reflects the authority of the office.
Presidential Gown
The presidential gown was designed by faculty members from Marist's Fashion Design program. It has four sleeve bars instead of the usual three of a doctoral robe. The primary color of the gown is Marist red, framed by standard black panels adorned with an embroidered "M" from the college’s seal and Main Gate. The hood also features Marist red and includes a white chevron. During the inauguration ceremony, the president will remove the robes associated with his earned degree and don the Marist College presidential gown.
