Eastern Shore Community College (ESCC) holds its annual commencement ceremony in May; the event is publicized on its official website and tickets are required for guests. Graduates must arrive early on the day to collect their name cards, prepare regalia, and line up for the procession — certificate, associate, and diploma recipients assemble by program in different rooms.

To participate, ESCC students must wear ceremonial academic regalia: a graduation gown and mortarboard cap (ordered via Herff Jones) are mandatory. The college clearly states that participants should have their tassel worn on the right side before graduation conferral, in line with traditional academic ceremony etiquette.

Regarding tassel color and stoles, ESCC does not publish a single, central color‑chart on its site. Instead, the Commencement FAQ clarifies that the “color of your tassel and stole indicate from which program/curriculum you are graduating.” The FAQ further notes that students should consult the Follett Bookstore for guidance on the correct color combinations, suggesting that program‑specific or departmental color codes are used rather than generic school-wide colors.

There is no publicly available ESCC documentation that defines honor cord colors (e.g., for Latin honors) or a standard stole color set for honors or specific student organizations. The ESCC commencement site directs students to choose from program-based options rather than a fixed honors‑cord palette.

On faculty regalia, ESCC’s publicly posted commencement materials do not specify gown colors, hood lining, or velvet‑trim detail. Given the absence of a published dress‑code, it is likely that faculty follow broader academic regalia conventions — wearing standard black gowns, mortarboards, and possibly hoods in line with their academic degree or discipline as per intercollegiate regalia norms.

In summary, ESCC’s commencement requires a black cap and gown, with program‑specific tassel and stole colors determined by the student’s curriculum. Honor cords and faculty regalia color are not defined on the website; students are advised to coordinate with the Follett Bookstore for the correct academic regalia matching their program and honors or departmental distinction.
