COMMENCEMENT - Regalia and Registration LAST DAY 3/1

Post by Student Life »

Friday, March 1 is the last day to register to walk in the 2019 Commecement Ceremony: http://www.law.buffalo.edu/current/comm ... -form.html

All graduates are required to wear the authorized University at Buffalo School of Law academic regalia provided for you by the cap and gown vendor.

All rental orders will be taken online starting NOW through Friday, March 1, 2019, via the University Bookstore / Jostens (click on Graduation Caps & Gowns https://www.jostens.com/apps/store/cust ... at-Buffalo). There are also links to order rings and other graduation items. The cost for J.D. and LL.M. regalia rentals is approximately $72.00 + tax. PAYABLE at time of Pick-Up! If a head measurement is required for the tam (hats), I have a tape measure in my office for accuracy.

Late fees will be applied to each order after the scheduled order deadline of Friday, March 1. Please note that you must return the gown, hood and tam (hat), as it is only rented. The tassel is yours to keep. The law school cannot accept regalia orders.

If you do not wish to wear academic regalia, there is an alternative. Traditionally, Buffalo Public Interest Law Program (BPLIP) offers the opportunity to donate toward its scholarship fund in lieu of renting a cap and gown. Students who donate will receive a special cord to wear on their lapel. A note in the graduation program section on Academic Costume explains the cord. You can still donate and wear the cord even if you order and wear your cap and gown. More information on that will be forthcoming along with cords that signifying participation in student organizations sponsored in part by SBA.
