CHSU’s commencement and hooding ceremony is a formal event for graduates of its programs—including the Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) and Master of Science in Biomedical Sciences (MSBS). According to CHSU’s “Graduation” page, both the College of Osteopathic Medicine and the College of Biosciences & Health Professions hold a Commencement and Hooding Ceremony for each graduating class.The event is held at a major venue (e.g., Save Mart Center) and graduates are required to wear their graduation cap, graduation gown, and the appropriate academic regalia. While the institution provides venue and ceremony details, the publicly available information does not specify a detailed color-chart for tassels, honor cords, or stoles for different degree levels (Bachelor, Master, Doctoral), nor disciplinary regalia color coding. The typical graduation gown color appears to be the classic black, consistent with standard academic regalia practice, though CHSU does not publish an alternate color for gown variations. One article notes that for their inaugural DO commencement, graduates were “draped with an academic hood” to represent initiation into the medical profession. California Health Sciences University Honor cords and stoles are permitted, but CHSU’s website does not detail specific colors or breakdowns by honor societies or disciplines. Faculty regalia at CHSU follows conventional academic dress—faculty wear gowns, hoods and caps reflecting their highest earned degree and discipline—but again the website lacks a published discipline-specific color guide. In summary: CHSU’s academic regalia framework centers on the black graduation gown, graduation cap, and appropriate hooding (for relevant degrees), forming a unified cap & gown set, while accessories like tassels, honor cords and stoles must adhere to CHSU policies though their exact colors should be confirmed with the Registrar or commencement vendor ahead of time.
