A stole is an optional accessory worn by the graduate during the commencement ceremony that is embroidered with the name of your college. These were previously known as stoles of gratitude. After commencement, the graduate presents the stole of gratitude to someone who provided them with help or support, such as parents, relatives, or mentors. The graduate removes the stole from his/her neck and places it around the neck of the recipient. More than one stole may be worn during commencement, symbolizing that the student was helped by multiple people.
