According to Huntington University’s Commencement webpage, graduates must arrive fully dressed in academic regalia: cap (mortarboard), gown, hood (if applicable), and tassel.

The site explicitly allows honor cords, stoles, and medallions from university-recognized groups to be worn during the ceremony. Honor cords, when earned, are distributed by the Registrar’s Office at check-in.

For master’s and doctoral graduates, the university requires the tassel to be worn on the left front of the cap.

The graduation gown color is black. Huntington’s Commencement page notes that students should “unpack and hang up or iron your graduation gowns before the ceremony.”

As for dress code under the gown, Huntington University advises: men should wear a light shirt & tie with dark trousers; women should wear dark pants or skirt and dark shoes. Flip-flops or tennis shoes are discouraged.

Although Huntington allows honor cords and stoles, its Commencement page clarifies that there is no special, additional regalia for academic honors (i.e., cum laude / magna / summa).

The Graduate & Online Programs catalog confirms that Commencement exercises are held annually (end of April or early May for many programs), and also provides the procedure for degree conferral / participation.

On faculty regalia: Huntington’s Faculty Handbook does not detail a color-chart for hoods or velvet trim by discipline.
