Colorado State University Pueblo (CSU Pueblo) runs well-organized commencement ceremonies where graduates wear official academic regalia — a mortarboard graduation cap, gown, and tassel — ordered in advance through the CSU Pueblo Bookstore. Graduates pick up packets that include regalia instructions and academic cords at mandatory Packet Pickup before Commencement.

The standard graduation gown color follows classic academic convention: bachelor’s and master’s candidates wear the institution’s cap and gown appropriate to their degree level, while doctoral candidates wear the velvet-trimmed doctoral gown and may wear a tam rather than a mortarboard. The Commencement program explains how bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral gowns differ in cut and ornamentation and notes that doctoral tassels are often gold.

CSU Pueblo provides honor cords and recognizes Latin honors during the ceremony. The official Commencement program and graduate instructions specify academic honors thresholds (Cum Laude, Magna, Summa) and list the cord colors used in past programs: Cum Laude — red cords; Magna Cum Laude — silver cords; Summa Cum Laude — gold cords. Academic honor cords are distributed at Packet Pickup.

Graduates may also wear approved stoles and organization regalia that represent student organizations, cultural groups, or academic programs; all stoles/cords must be pre-approved by the university to ensure appropriateness. CSU Pueblo requires hoods for master’s and doctoral graduates; hood lining and velvet trim reflect the degree field per traditional academic costume codes.

In short, CSU Pueblo’s commencement emphasizes classic, dignified cap, gown and tassel traditions combined with clear, centrally-managed support for honors cords and approved stoles — ordered via the Bookstore and distributed via Packet Pickup — with doctoral tassels and hood colors following standard academic costume conventions.
