Penne
I find your edits on that wonderful hat quite interesting. Belgian student life is very interesting, and it needs better documentation. You might be interested in the article St V I wrote, and fr:Fichier:Médaille_de_Saint-Verhaegen_2004.jpg, if you wanted to import it to the commons, is a pin from St V with a cartoon of a student wearing a penne. Having said that, I'm not sure if penne is actually the correct spelling. Cheers,  Oreo Priest  talk 03:55, 10 July 2009 (UTC)


 * I'll say it's a strange world, and unfortunately, there is very little documentation. Part of the scope of Belgian student life is 'not ruining it for others' who choose to participate in later years. I realize that goes against Wikipedia's spoiler policy, but it's pretty true. The name for the hat is "penne" (pronounced like "pen" in English), but this is the hat that is typically found at Liberal (Free or non-religious) universities. Catholic universities (i.e. Universite Catholique de Louvain, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven and so on) use another hat called a calotte, which is made of black velvet and has no brim. The page was more or less a 'fantasy' page where I could write a bit about student life. I don't want to be the one responsible for wrecking a tradition that's nearly 200 years old! ;) Torontois (talk) 05:27, 24 July 2009 (UTC)


 * I wouldn't worry too much about spoiling it by putting it on the English Wikipedia; quick Google searches turn up most of the information easily. And you needn't spill the most sordid details, those you won't be able to properly source anyways. - Oreo Priest  talk 14:39, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
