Academic Regalia

Academic regalia are any form of clothing that is worn in academic settings. The most popular event when academic regalia are worn is during a graduation ceremony. A graduation ceremony is incomplete without the ceremonial gowns and mortarboards that help to identify the graduating students as well as give the occasion a more academic look. Most institutions make a requirement that all graduating students to wear these ceremonial garments since guests will be invited and this creates a good picture about the institution. Academic regalia vary slightly from place to place in the design and color of the garments. However, the basic gown and mortarboard remains largely the same.
