Florida Southern College (FSC) conducts formal commencement ceremonies each semester with clear procedures for academic regalia, cap and gown processes, and approved honor items. Commencements are held in spring (early May) and mid-December at venues such as the RP Funding Center. Students must submit an Application for Graduation, complete a graduation check with the Registrar, and order university-approved regalia by the published deadlines outlined in the Commencement Handbook and Registrar resources. Undergraduate candidates wear traditional black graduation gowns and mortarboard caps; bachelor’s tassels follow standard academic practice (right before conferral, then moved left when degrees are conferred). Graduate students wear master’s gowns with the appropriate hood, and doctoral candidates wear full doctoral regalia with velvet trim and hood lining that reflect discipline colors. Faculty appear in institutional academic regalia appropriate to earned degree and rank. Florida Southern permits honor cords, stoles, sashes and medallions to recognize academic distinction, leadership, and honor society membership, but additional regalia items must be authorized or distributed through the Registrar or sponsoring departments; approved examples include Latin-honors cords, leadership stoles and departmental sashes noted in the Commencement Handbook and academic catalog PDFs. While FSC lists approved procedures and examples of honor accessories, the College does not publish a single exhaustive discipline-color chart for tassels, hoods or stoles on its public pages; in practice many programs follow intercollegiate conventions for hood and trim colors when graduate hoods are used. In short, FSC emphasizes procedural compliance — apply for graduation, verify degree clearance, order the approved cap, gown and tassel set on time, and obtain Registrar approval for honor cords or stoles. For exact graduation gown color, tassel placement, faculty regalia details and authorized honor accessory colors, graduates should consult Florida Southern College’s Commencement Handbook, Registrar pages, and the current academic catalog PDFs before purchasing regalia.
