Viterbo University

Viterbo University staging of its commencement ceremonies features full academic regalia and official commencement protocols that emphasize tradition, achievement and identity. At Viterbo, graduates wear the classic black graduation gown paired with the graduation cap (usually mortarboard) alongside the appropriate hood or stole for their degree level. The academic regalia page confirms that the master’s gown is distinguished by long closed sleeves and the doctoral gown by velvet panels and sleeve stripes, and that the hood lining represents the institution’s colors while the hood facing shows the graduate’s discipline.

Honor medallions are worn by bachelor’s degree students who achieve a cumulative GPA of 3.50 or above with at least 45 credits at Viterbo.Graduates who complete the Viterbo Honors Program may wear a cardinal colored stole, and military service is denoted by approved military stoles.

Additionally, accredited honor societies and student organisations are represented by honor cords in specified colours: for example, the Veterans of Armed Services cord is red, white and blue; the Student Government Association cord is cardinal and silver; and nursing honors may wear purple cords, etc.

Faculty regalia follow standard conventions for faculty doctoral dress and color coding by discipline. The overall cap and gown set for each ceremony thus includes the graduation gown, the graduation cap, tassel set appropriate for degree level, hood or stole, and any honour cords or medallions relevant to each graduate. While Viterbo does not publish a full discipline‑by‑discipline hood colour chart in the public handbook, it clearly adheres to the accepted academic regalia standards: black robes, discipline‑coloured velvet facings, and institution‑coloured hood linings.

In summary, the commencement / academic regalia norms at Viterbo University ensure a cohesive look for graduates and faculty: the graduation gown provides the base, the graduation cap completes the silhouette, tassels sets and honour cords/stoles add recognisable achievement markers, and the faculty regalia distinguish instructors and degree‑holders.
