Before a candidate could proceed to a degree, a certain number of members of his faculty had to testify secretly to the Vice-Chancellor in favour of his fitness with regard to conduct and learning. Nine were required in the faculty of arts, three in the other faculties. The Vice-Chancellor put the question to each in Latin, and the permitted responses were scio (‘I know’), credo (‘I believe’), or nescio (‘I do not know’).
