How to Properly Wear the Academic Hood |
| | |
Now that you have earned your degree and the right to wear the proper academic
hood, we want to be sure you wear it correctly.The hood should be placed
over your head so that it drapes off your shoulders and over the back of your
gown. The velvet border should be on the outside as shown in the picture.
Be sure the lining of the hood is turned out so that the color(s) identifying
the institution which conferred your degree are prominently displayed. This can
be done by turning the velvet trim to the outside at the back just below your
shoulders. The cord on the back of your hood will keep your hood in place.
A
cord in the front of your hood is provided to keep the hood away from your neck.
Fasten the cord to a shirt or dress button.
Make sure the black
base (shell) of the hood is smoothed down and lays flat against the back of your
robe. | | |
