Hooding Ceremony
The Hooding Ceremony is a master's degree candidate-only event that signifies the student's successful completion of their graduate program as a faculty member invests their hood over them. This is in addition to the Commencement ceremony, but also features faculty in full academic regalia. The Hooding Ceremony helps students and their families commemorate their graduate degree together in a more personal setting.
Dr. Lola Norris, Dean of the Graduate School, personally congratulates each candidate on their academic achievements.
Each College organizes its Hooding Ceremonies and is currently scheduled for Spring 2025 graduates, as seen below.
