Academy Helmet

I am no expert on this subject. I am working on the uniforms worn by the Michigan Military Academy 1877 to 1908 and was wondering what I should say on about this helmet. I am calling it " White dress helmet with Michigan plate." Any suggestions to improve my description. Also were most academy dress helmets copies of U.S. Army dress helmet?

 

Thank you for any help

Looks to me like an Army Officer's m1881 white (ivory) summer dress helmet with a Michigan front plate--wool covering looks nice. Photo of the inside?
