Academic Convocations

Attendance at commencement exercises at the end of each semester, at Honors Day observed during Spring Semester, and at other occasional formal functions is encouraged. All such occasions require faculty members to wear appropriate academic regalia. Each faculty member is thus encouraged to obtain the elements of academic apparel appropriate to his/her highest degree.

The Faculty Marshal is responsible for issuing communications regarding occasions for which caps and gowns are required dress.
