Abstract
King’s College London was the largest theological training college in the UK, and for much of the twentieth century the black-bound mauve academic hood of its theological Associateship diploma, the AKC, was seen in the choir dress of those in holy orders at church services and clergy gatherings as much as the crimson and white lined hoods, respectively, of Oxford and Cambridge Masters of Arts. This article explores the origins of its academic dress and changes to it.
