Yes, you must wear the cap and gown to participate as a graduate in commencement and convocation. Anything you wear under the gown must meet the Dress and Grooming standards set forth by the Honor Code. However, you may attend commencement and convocation as an audience member without wearing the cap and gown.

“Stoles of Gratitude,” leis, or honors regalia are appropriate accessories to the basic cap and gown.
