Hooding and Guest Hooders
Hooding is a part of the Commencement Ceremony immediately prior to when each graduate receives their diploma. As each graduating student's name is called, they ascend the stage and are seated on the "hooding stool". A doctoral hood is then placed
over their head by either Dean Christa Zehle and Associate Dean Lee Rosen or by Dean Zehle and a guest hooder of the graduating student's choosing. They then receive their diploma and descend from the stage.
