We encourage these students to wear their honors stole of cardinal panels at the School of Nursing program. Honors program graduates will be distinguished by a white stole with cardinal bars.
All stoles are to be worn draped over the shoulders.
Stoles are worn only with caps and gowns and may be obtained at the University Book Store. Students do not need to reserve honor stoles in advance. They can be picked up with their cap and gown the week of commencement. Also, students who have been inducted into membership in Sigma Theta Tau, the nursing honor society, should wear their orchid and white honor cords over their academic robes. The cords are to be worn around the neck, with the tassels hanging symmetrically in front.
