The commencement ceremony for the UW‑Green Bay Manitowoc Campus is part of the university’s broader commencement tradition: graduates wear the official academic regalia of the institution, comprising a graduation cap, graduation gown and tassel. The standard graduation gown color is black and the mortarboard cap is black as well, in keeping with the university’s policy that all graduates participating must wear approved caps and gowns.
For bachelor’s degree candidates, the black zip‑front gown and black mortarboard cap with the UW‑Green Bay tassel worn on the right side until degree conferral, then moved to the left, apply. Master’s candidates wear the black master’s‑specific gown, black cap and black tassel worn on the left side throughout the ceremony, and also are required to wear the master’s hood (purchased separately). Academic regalia for honours and societies includes cords, stoles or medallions: for example, the university academic honours cord combination is green & white.
The approved regalia list covers both academic and non‑academic honours: honour cords, stoles or pins that represent membership in honour societies or campus leadership, such as burgundy & gold for Alpha Sigma Lambda, red & green for Beta Beta Beta, royal blue & gold for Phi Alpha, dark blue & platinum for Psi Chi, etc. Cultural stoles and cords are also allowed with prior approval, and the university emphasizes that only one item of non‑standard regalia (cord, stole, medallion or pin) may be worn per student.
Faculty regalia and discipline‑specific hoods follow the traditional academic dress code: doctoral gowns feature velvet panels and stripes, master’s gowns have distinct sleeve shapes, and each field’s hood or trimming uses a colour aligned with the discipline’s standard. The Manitowoc Campus can rely on the same regalia policy as the main campus, ensuring consistent academic regalia packages for cap, gown and tassels sets across campus locations.
