Commencement is a major milestone in a student's life, and as a faculty or staff member, you have played a role in achieving that milestone. That is why we encourage and invite all Missouri State University faculty and staff to participate in commencement.
Missouri State will cover the cost of renting your gown. Our contract allows each participant to keep their cap and hood to use in future commencement ceremonies. If you plan to participate in fall commencement and do not already own your own regalia, you must complete a Faculty Regalia Order Form. Please submit this form to Karen Foster in the PSU Administration Office, PSU 401.
Ordered regalia must be picked up at 1905 (formerly "Maroon Nation"), located on the second floor of the Plaster Student Union, next to Copy This.
Please arrive at the racquetball court area in Hammons Student Center 45 minutes prior to the start of the ceremony for donning regalia and marshalling. A light buffet will be served. You will line up in Hammons Student Center then march to the main floor of JQH Arena.
The University must have at least one week's notice of any disability accommodation for faculty or graduates in order to serve the needs identified. Submit your request to Terry Weber, commencement chair.
