I vividly recall singing "Gaudemus igitur" at my alma mater, Smith
College, in Northampton, Massachusetts USA. If I remember correctly
(we're talking about the 1970s) the occasion was usually the college-wide
Convocation at the beginning of each school year. It was all suitably
pseudo-medieval: the faculty processed in full regalia, led by the
"mace-bearer."
