    My wife got her Ph.D before her MA from Cambridge. She says for formal situations one wears the Ph.D., but if you are at the university where you got the MA you wear it there to honor that academic community.

    I am nowhere near Sister's level of achievement, but I do have an M.A. in Theology, and would just point out that the color of the hood for this degree is white. Scarlet would be for recipients of the M.Div., which is considered to be a professional degree of the clergy, and not a purely academic one.

    Wear your regalia with pride, Sister! but not too much, or you'll have to confess that.
