When did "dinks" die?

"Dinks" were one term for the special hats/caps that freshmen (often just the men) had to wear on campus either during their entire freshman year or in some cases just until homecoming.

If you remember in Animal House that the freshmen looking to pledge had those hats on, those were dinks.


Also, these days is there *anything* that a Freshman would be expected to have/wear/whatever during the first part of the school year that a later year wouldn't at your school?
