Spokane Falls Community College holds its commencement ceremonies for graduating students wearing official academic regalia. Graduates must pick up their cap and gown before the ceremony, as orders are handled in advance and distributed at the SFCC Bookstore.

The standard regalia includes a graduation cap (mortarboard), graduation gown, and a tassel. Honor cords are provided to qualifying students — e.g. those with a cumulative GPA of 3.50 or higher receive a gold honor cord. Additional cords and regalia are available for students affiliated with honor societies such as Phi Theta Kappa (PTK), for veterans (Americana cords), or for other student‑affiliated groups recognized by the college.

The ceremony requires graduates to wear the full academic regalia set. Guests are admitted freely; no tickets are required. Graduates are advised to arrive by the scheduled start time, dressed properly with cap and gown, and to wear comfortable shoes due to stairs and sustained standing. Personal items are discouraged owing to lack of secure storage.

SFCC’s approach blends uniformity and recognition of achievement: every graduate wears the basic cap, gown, and tassel set; those who meet academic or organizational criteria may also add honor cords or society regalia. The regalia policy ensures consistency, dignity, and respect for the accomplishments represented by graduation — while providing optional distinction for honors students, veterans, and society members. The result is a cohesive, organized commencement environment that balances tradition with recognition.
