Johnson College in Scranton, PA, holds its commencement ceremony each May (for example, its 106th Commencement was held on May 10, 2025). Graduates assemble at least one hour before the event, and the College arranges for rehearsal the day before. The ceremony takes place at a local venue (e.g., F.M. Kirby Center for the Performing Arts) and is live-streamed for family and friends.
At “Grad Finale,” a preparatory event, students pick up their cap & gown regalia. Johnson College requires graduates to retrieve their cap, gown and tassel in pressed condition, and advises participation in rehearsal wearing full academic regalia. The regalia appears to follow traditional academic dress: a standard black graduation gown and mortarboard cap for students, as suggested by the pick-up instructions.
However, neither the Johnson College catalog nor its student handbook (2024–2025) provides a published regalia color guide. There are no detailed institutional policies in public documents about honor cords or stoles (color, eligibility, or discipline-based). The college’s catalog and handbook mention academic standards and graduation procedures but do not define cord or stole regalia. Similarly, faculty regalia or discipline-specific regalia color guidelines aren’t publicly outlined.
In the absence of a publicly documented color scheme, Johnson College likely employs generic black gowns and tassels for most graduates. Cords or stoles, if used, may be provided by honor societies or student organizations independently, rather than standardized at the institutional level. This means that for Amazon or Google Store regalia listings, it's safest to describe the Johnson College set as a classic black graduation gown with mortarboard cap and basic tassel, with a note that honor cords or stoles (if any) are not institution-specified and may vary.
The commencement tradition at Johnson College reflects a practical, streamlined approach to academic regalia, focused on accessibility for students while following conventional cap-and-gown ceremony norms — but without a public, formal system for colored cords, stoles or specialty regalia.
Designed for Johnson College graduates, this complete regalia set features a black graduation gown, mortarboard cap, and tassel — perfect for the College’s commencement ceremony.
