Bejan (French Script error: No such module "Lang"., from Script error: No such module "Lang"., 'yellow beak', in allusion to unfledged birds, and the equivalent to German Script error: No such module "Lang".) was a term for freshmen, or undergraduates of the first year, in the Scottish universities.[1] The term is rarely used today except at the University of Aberdeen; at the University of St Andrews the word has mutated to Bejant (female: Bejantine).[citation needed]
The phrase was introduced from the French universities, where the levying of Script error: No such module "Lang". ('footing-money') had been prohibited by the statutes of the university of Orleans in 1365 and by those of Toulouse in 1401. In 1493 the election of an Script error: No such module "Lang". ('Abbot of the Freshmen') was forbidden in the University of Paris.[1]
