The cap depicted is the freshman cap of Howard ‘Howdy’ Staley 1937. This cap was given to Staley upon entering the Upper School, delineating him and his fellow classmates as freshmen. The cap’s striking orange and black coloring reflects the school’s colors, which were selected in 1893 by two students who chose the color because of the notable population of Maryland Oriole birds on campus.
