Labette Community College conducts a single annual commencement ceremony each spring (typically in May) for all eligible graduates — including those who completed requirements in the preceding December or spring term.
Graduation apparel (cap, gown, tassel, and any approved cords or stoles) must be ordered through the college’s designated vendor, Herff Jones, via their “College Graduation Products” platform. LCC explicitly requires that only LCC-issued caps & gowns, tassels, honor cords, and/or approved stoles be worn — no outside or random regalia are permitted.
During the ceremony, caps must be worn squarely (board parallel to the floor), gowns fully zipped, and tassels placed on the right side of the mortarboard — then after degree conferral, graduates move the tassel to the left.
For scholars graduating with honors (based on GPA thresholds: Summa Cum Laude, Magna Cum Laude, Cum Laude), LCC permits wearing a gold honor cord at the commencement ceremony.
Stoles and cords beyond the honor cord — such as those belonging to honor societies (e.g. Phi Theta Kappa) — or other approved groups (SGA, PTK, etc.) may also be worn, provided they are issued by LCC.
There is no public documentation on discipline‑specific hood colors, tassel colors by major or degree level, or faculty regalia color guide. The publicly available graduation guidelines focus on LCC‑issued regalia and appropriate wear protocol. Because of this, one cannot definitively state any standard hood or gown color by discipline or degree beyond what’s listed (cap, gown, tassel, cords/stoles).
In summary: LCC’s commencement ceremony uses standardized academic regalia issued by the college: a mortarboard graduation cap, gown, and tassel (right‑side initially, then moved left), with optional approved honor cords (gold) for honors graduates and approved stoles/cords (e.g. PTK) for eligible students. There is no published color scheme tied to academic discipline or faculty regalia.
Mark your academic achievement with genuine Labette Community College graduation apparel — a complete cap, gown, mortarboard, tassel, and optional honor cord or approved stole for commencement.
Labette Community College students eligible for commencement, alumni seeking keepsakes, or family members ordering official regalia. Great for those needing a full cap, gown, and tassel set that adheres to college academic regalia standards.
Note: To confirm the exact colors of the graduation gown, cap, tassel, honor cords, and stoles for your specific program at Labette Community College, you can reach out directly to the college's administration or the office responsible for commencement and student services. They can provide you with the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding academic regalia.
