Question for a current student on Nassau Hall

This is a bit of an odd request, but I was wondering if anyone knew the name of the object on display in the glassbox. If it helps, it’s in the portrait gallery where information sessions are held. I believe if you walk in the main doors it’s the room to the right. At the far end of that room there is the display box. If anyone knows the name it would be greatly appreciated.

Not a current student but are you talking about the mace?

Yes, thank you so much!
