Flathead Valley Community College

Flathead Valley Community College (FVCC) holds its annual commencement ceremony in McClaren Hall at the Wachholz College Center. On graduation day, students check in by 5:15 pm and lineup begins at 5:30 pm in the Fitness Center, before the formal ceremony begins at 6:00 pm.

Graduates are required to wear the official graduation gown and cap (mortarboard), which they pick up in advance — typically on pre-ceremony pick-up dates (May 8–9) in the Student Lounge or via the Registrar’s Office. While FVCC’s website provides instructions for gown pick-up, it does not publicly specify a distinct color for the gown or cap, implying a standard black academic gown set, as commonly used at many community colleges.

For honors recognition, FVCC awards honor cords to graduating students who achieve a cumulative GPA of 3.75 or above, and these cords are distributed along with the regalia. There is no mention of honor stoles or special sashes in the publicly available FVCC graduation page — no stole color chart, no departmental or society stoles are listed, indicating that perhaps stoles are not standard or are not differentiated by discipline in their publicly available documentation.

Regarding faculty or discipline-specific academic regalia, FVCC’s publicly available academic catalog and graduation page do not detail any hood colors, velvet panels, or tassel color by field of study. The information is limited to the student gown, cap, and honors cord, and FVCC does not provide a publicly available color-coded academic regalia guide for different disciplines.

In summary: FVCC’s academic regalia for commencement is relatively simple and standardized — graduates wear a cap and gown (presumably black), plus honor cords for high-GPA students; there is no public listing of stoles or tassel colours apart from the cord, and faculty regalia colour–coding is not publicly detailed.
