THE REGALIA
Every college commencement ceremony reveals the regalia
specific to academia. The differences in the regalia seen in
the faculty procession represent the variety of institutions
from which they are graduates and the different degrees they
earned. The associate’s gown has open sleeves and features
a special cowl instead of a hood, which distinguishes it from
the bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral regalia.
