The Gentleman's Hat
From the unofficial Duke TIP Wiki
The Gentleman's Hat is a less known tradition at Duke East Term II. It is a straw hat with a red band going around the top with a University of South Carolina logo on it (the logo is commonly mistaken to be Southern California). On the bottom of the hat is a list of names of the gentlemen who have been previous owners of the hat.
