Godiva's Crown (sometimes erroneously known as Godiva or Lady Godiva) is a female engineering student who has been chosen to represent the spirit of [[Lady Godiva]] at Skule™. She is selected during a [[Godiva Week]] competition in which she must perform a creative act in front of a panel of male judges and the reigning Godiva's Crown. Godiva's Crown holds the ceremonial wooden horse as well as the signature Crown for the year. She is present at many Skule™ events to improve Skule™ spirit.

The Crown worn by Godiva's Crown is a unique hardhat, from which a distinctive crown shape is carved, with the sides of the crown emblazoned with the suit representing the year (i.e. the ''Queen of Hearts'' or the ''Queen of Clubs''). The 'suit' for each Godiva's Crown rotates each year in a four-year cycle.

Godiva's Crown traditionally shares the first dance at [[Cannonball]] with [[Mr. Blue & Gold]], and starts the [[Bed Races]], organized by the [[Blue & Gold Committee]], during [[F!rosh Week]] each year.

==Competition==
The Godiva's Crown Competition has traditionally been held on Thursday evening of [[Godiva Week]]. The competition consists of two main parts. First, in a humourous gesture, each Godiva's Crown contestant is asked to use power tools to nail, hammer, drill, and screw together a small wooden object in front of the judges.

The main part of the competition involves a creative act which may include a skit, song, or dance. There are no requirements to the act, and many acts have involved the use of props, supporting cast, and multimedia presentations.

===Judging===
The judging panel usually consists of seven judges - six male engineering students (which must include exactly one F!rosh) and the reigning Godiva's Crown (who is the head judge). The male judges are generally chosen by the Godiva's Crown or organizers of the event, and is decided by their (humourous) responses to a series of questions.

Following each act, the judges generally write their comments on paper to be read out by the MC of the night. These comments are humorous in nature, and are not meant to factor into the official judging of the act. The judges also have opportunities to ask questions to the contestants after their act.

The judges, although they are chosen impartially, have been known to enjoy tasty treats and refreshing BEvERages to aid in their selection of the winning contestant. Many contestants choose to make their 'bribery' in a public fashion during their act, with judges favourably receiving creative and personalized gifts.

The judges congregate in a secret location following the last act, and vote for the next Godiva's Crown. Following the decision, the reigning Godiva's Crown announces awards for each of the contestants, and the winner of the title. The new Godiva's Crown is then presented with the Godiva's Crown hardhat, the Godiva sashes, a ceremonial horse, and the flags for the Blue & Gold Bed Races.

[[File:mr_blue_and_gold.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Mr. Blue & Gold trophy hardhat]]
Mr. Blue & Gold is the bearer of the Skule™ colours (Blue & Gold) at the University of Toronto Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering. He is selected during a Godiva Week competition in which he must perform a creative act for a panel of female judges and the reigning Mr. Blue & Gold. The holder of the title of Mr. Blue & Gold must drop his pants on command for any Skulemate who asks. Mr. Blue & Gold has one of the most unique hardhats in Skule™, with a trademarked half-blue and half-gold shell laced together down the middle, with a large Skule™ patch on the front.

==Competition==
The Mr. Blue & Gold Competition has traditionally been held on Wednesday evening of [[Godiva Week]]. The competition consists of two main parts. First, in a humourous gesture, each Mr. Blue & Gold contestant is asked to put on a set of feminine garments and to pose in front of the judges seductively.

The main part of the competition involves a creative act which may include a skit, song, or dance. There are no requirements to the act, so long as the candidate ends up in only his underwear at the end of his act. Some popular acts have used fire, water, or other props to humour the judges.

===Judging===
The judging panel usually consists of seven judges - six female engineering students (which must include exactly one F!rosh) and the reigning Mr. Blue & Gold (who is the head judge). The female judges are generally chosen by the Mr. Blue & Gold or organizers of the event, and is decided by their (humourous) responses to a series of questions.

Following each act, the judges generally write their comments on paper to be read out by the MC of the night. These comments are humorous in nature, and are not meant to factor into the official judging of the act. The judges also have opportunities to ask questions to the contestants after their act.

Following the decision, the reigning Mr. Blue & Gold announces awards for each of the contestants, and the winner of the title. The new Mr. Blue & Gold is then presented with the Blue & Gold hardhat as well as the ceremonial Mr. Blue & Gold boxers.

==Songs==
As if singing during F!rosh Week wasn't enough, John and Henry came up with another two songs (and this time they used Jordan Silverman as their backup), which they then sung for the Mr. Blue & Gold audience (2007) while the judges were off deliberating... this is the first of the two (sung to the tune of 'Just The Two Of Us'): 
 
We saw the singing and the dance 
And obsession with the pants 
But now the magical night is done 
The judges, they go to decide 
In which contestant theu confide 
One of these guys, will have won 
 
'''CHORUS:''' 
Mr. Blue & Gold! 
They will drop their pants on cue! 
Mr. Blue & Gold, Mr. Blue & Gold 
Mr. Blue & Gold 
Which will it be? Tell me who! 
Mr. Blue & Gold, maybe you! 
 
'''Henry:''' 
We see that Owen's hat was big 
And he still smells like a pig 
But of his act, we were fond 
The cards, they flew through the air 
What a wizard, with that flair 
But he wouldn't show Jess his wand 
 
'''John:''' 
Ted tried hard but came up short 
Although he is a pretty good sport 
If he wants to win, he must go big 
And since it seems that he likes Grease 
Maybe next year then at least 
He will run as the Greased Pig 
 
'''Henry:''' 
Frosted flakes are really great 
And everybody here got laid 
To his act, we say "hurrah" 
Aramark brought the tiger in, 
We bet he drank a lot of gin, 
Why was he wearing a bra? 
 
'''John:''' 
Saving damsels in distress, 
Batman manages to undress 
For superheroes that is the norm 
The old show was really lame 
And Mark's act was much the same 
But he beat calculus with porn 
 
'''Henry:''' 
We have three steps here for Dave, 
Maybe his act, they could save 
One find some original shit 
Two please don't look like hell, 
Three don't steal from SNL, 
And that's the way you do it! 
 
'''Henry:''' 
The rugby team was pretty cool, 
And they play real hard for Skule 
But hit the showers, you guys reek 
It's the same act every year 
Maybe show a little effort here? 
At least you guys know the days of the week 
 
'''John:''' 
We're pleased to see a F!rosh try out 
Everyone give him a shout 
Although he is sure to lose 
But how will he cope with his rage? 
Since he is not yet of age 
To drown his sorrows in booze. 
 
'''John:''' 
We thought the wannabes were good 
But maybe Thomas' act should 
Include some small amount of skill 
We know he tried, tried real hard 
But he is a tun of lard 
If we don't tell him, who will? 
 
'''Henry:''' 
And now as we come to a close, 
Who should win? Nobody knows 
Although our song keeps going on 
'''John:''' 
But if you want next year to rule 
And to bring glory to Skule, 
Mr. Blue & Gold should be Henry and John!
