The most frequently criticized cost of legal training at universities everywhere was the expense of the ceremonies involved in taking a degree. Degree-taking rituals involved a round of pageantry and gift-giving that culminated in the formal investiture of the candidate with the symbols of his new status, followed by an elaborate and costly banquet, all paid for by the new graduate. It was common, however, for students to secure a dis pensation from the obligation to furnish a banquet, in return for a payment to the university treasury. The heavy expenses that attended graduation were no doubt one reason why so many law students left the universities without taking their degrees. Contemporaries perceived this situation as dysfunctional, and Pope Clement V sought to alleviate it by placing a cap on the expenses of taking the doctorate. The limit of 3,000 ‘livres Tournois’ that he established, however, was so high that the doctorate still remained far beyond the means of many who might otherwise have qualified.
