Commencement is a dignified, formal event, and graduates must wear proper academic regalia in order to participate. Academic regalia may be adorned with stoles, ribbons, and other decorations associated with your experience at SUNY Broome. While we welcome creativity, any embellishments must be tasteful and appropriate. Adornments deemed inappropriate by event staff and/or College officials must be removed upon request.

If you have questions about ordering regalia, please contact the Bookstore at 607-778-5407.

If you are in need of regalia and unable to purchase it, please visit The Hornet Hope Center to inquire about available regalia.
