- Burgon_Society abstract "The Burgon Society, concerned with academic dress, should not be confused with the Dean Burgon Society, concerned with the advocacy of the King-James-Only Movement. They are separate organizations.The Burgon Society was founded in 2000 for the study and promotion of academical dress, to preserve its history, and to advise film and television companies and interested others in its correct usage. The President of the Society is James P.S. Thomson, MS (London), DM (Lambeth), FRCS, FBS, former Master of London Charterhouse. His predecessor was the organist John Birch, MA (Sus), DMus (Lambeth), FRCM, FRCO(CHM), LRAM, FRSA, FBS, who served two terms ending in 2011.The Society publishes an annual journal of peer-reviewed research into academic dress. It holds a spring conference each year and organises visits to robemakers, universities and other institutions, as well as a congregation, at which successful candidates are admitted to fellowship of the Society.One of the Society's founding fellows, Dr Nicholas Groves, created the Groves classification system for academic dress, in which the most common shapes of British gowns, hoods and caps are coded for easy reference. He also designed the gowns of the University of Malta. His design, selected from entries submitted in an international competition, debuted in November 2011 at a degree ceremony in Valletta, Malta.The Society is named after John William Burgon (1813–1888) from whom the Burgon shape academic hood takes its name. The Burgon hood is depicted in profile in the Society's emblem, surrounded by Bishop Andrewes caps.In 2010, the Society received charity status from the Charity Commission.".
