A Message About Cap & Gown from the Commencement Office

"We are aware of some ongoing shipping issues with caps and gowns from our vendor, Herff Jones. We have been repeatedly assured by our vendor that all regalia will be delivered in time for next week’s ceremonies. We are providing the following statement from Herff Jones:

'Herff Jones is working diligently to minimize delays in fulfilling orders for graduation regalia caused by global supply chain disruptions and labor shortages. Regrettably, these factors have caused us to fall behind schedule. The company is working to ship all remaining orders to students at Towson University in time to celebrate graduation on May 25-27. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused students and are committed to ensuring that every student has their regalia to cross the stage.'

In addition, the UStore has a contingency supply of in the event any orders go undelivered, and has placed additional bulk orders of regalia as a further fallback measure. If you have not received your order by the day before your ceremony, please email [email protected]. For general information, please see the commencement page at https://www.towson.edu/commencement/."
