Stoles and Cords
Graduating students are only permitted to wear cords and stoles that meet the following guidelines:
Graduation Cords
Students may only wear cords that:
- Are issued by their KGI academic programs.
- Are provided by national organizations with which they are officially affiliated.
- No other cords are permitted. If your cords are not provided by a KGI academic program, you must contact the Commencement Committee at KGIcommencement@kgi.edu for approval before the ceremony.
Graduation Stoles
Students may wear:
- Official KGI-issued stoles, including those for academic programs, student government, and registered student organizations in good standing.
- Academic program stoles, which must be ordered through KGI’s preferred vendor, CollegeWear, which provides pre-approved templates for each program (the KGI logo must be on the right side, and the program name should be on the left).
- Stoles approved by national organizations, provided they use the official national organization-approved stole design. The KGI logo is not required.
- Personal/custom stoles, only if the design is submitted to the Commencement Committee for review and approval at least two weeks before graduation.
For approval requests or additional information, please contact the Commencement Committee at KGIcommencement@kgi.edu before the ceremony.
