The College of Southern Idaho (CSI) conducts formal commencement ceremonies to honor students who complete their academic programs. According to its official catalog, students must apply for graduation and meet course requirements before they are eligible to participate in the ceremony. The degree is conferred only after requirements are met, and honor distinctions such as Summa Cum Laude (GPA 3.90–4.00), Magna Cum Laude (3.70–3.89), and Cum Laude (3.50–3.69) are officially acknowledged. Students who graduate with honors wear gold honor cords during the graduation ceremony, as stipulated in multiple CSI catalogs.
Regarding academic regalia — cap, gown, tassels, stoles — the publicly available CSI handbook or catalog does not clearly define specific colors for the graduation gown or departmental stoles. The CSI Bookstore does offer a “Graduation Cap, Gown & Tassel Package” in its regalia section. The tassel sold in the bookstore is listed in gold, which aligns with the honor cord color, but there is no official breakdown of master’s-level hoods or discipline-specific academic regalia (stoles or faculty hoods) on the CSI site.
Because CSI catalogs (e.g., 2017-2018) repeatedly mention only “gold cords” for honors and do not reference standard tassel or gown color codes or faculty / departmental robe colors, there is ambiguity for those ordering graduation gowns, academic regalia sets, or faculty regalia. In absence of a publicly documented color chart, students, faculty, or third-party regalia sellers should verify with CSI’s Bookstore or commencement office to ensure correct graduation cap and gown color, tassel color, and any honor or departmental stoles.
