All faculty are invited to participate in the Commencement Ceremony. As official witnesses to the conferring of degrees they play a vital role in the success of the Ceremony. Many faculty members have served as Commencement and College Marshals for 20 or more years. Occasionally a position opens up in these elite ranks. Please contact us if you are interested in becoming a marshal.
Those who are not marshals may participate as members of the academic procession. Stage seating limits the size of the academic procession, so please contact our office prior to May 1st to secure your seat.
Confirmation of your commencement participation and ordering of apparel will occur via our online confirmation and regalia ordering form.
In order to guarantee that you will have the appropriate colors in your hood, as well as a seat on stage, we must receive your order no later than May 1st. Doctoral rental gowns are black Sussex gowns. (Unless you received your Ph.D. from the UW, custom apparel is not available on a rental basis.)

Doctoral gown and tam (no hood): $29.00
