"My daughter and her best friends decorated matching hats. They loved this project!"

One of the most infamous hats, a "dunce cap" was created with the opposite intention in mind. Although it came to be a symbol of ignorance, the originator, John Duns Scotus, from Duns, Scotland, believed that knowledge would funnel down from the point of the cap to the wearer below. His idea obviously didn't catch on, and the hat became a symbol of ignorance.
