On behalf of the faculty and staff here at College of the Desert, I can say we are confident these students are equipped to pursue their next dream, whether that is continuing their education, starting a new career, or advancing in their current career.”

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Dear Graduates and Guests,

Welcome to College of the Desert’s 60th commencement ceremony!

With great honor and pride, we will confer 2,022 certificates and degrees today, May 21, 2024.

This convocation is a marker of the Class of 2024’s hard work and resiliency, in and out of the classroom. Many of our students work and/or support families while they go to school. Their graduation regalia serve as a reminder that every day they chose to show up. Every day, they chose to hope for a brighter future.

In completing their respective programs, they have the tools and resources they need to keep moving forward. In addition to their degrees and certificates, these students carry with them the Roadrunner community, to which they can look for networking opportunities and support.

As our students leave and move on to their next big adventures, all of us here at College of the Desert and the wider community of over 125,000 COD alumni are cheering them on.

Our graduating class is made up of 1,604 students, with many of them completing more than one program. They represent multiple athletic teams, clubs, and organizations. Their presence and contribution to our vibrant campus community will be missed.

We wish you well, Class of 2024. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your journey.

Laura Hope Interim Superintendent/President, College of the Desert

ACADEMIC DRESS

The history of academic dress goes back to the medieval European universities of the 14th century. Universities and colleges in the United States have standardized the academic regalia so that its features are the same throughout the country. The gown is ordinarily black for academic degrees. The style of the sleeves varies with the degree held: pointed sleeves for a bachelor’s degree; oblong sleeves for a master’s degree; and round, full sleeves for a doctorate degree. Hoods are not usually worn for associate and bachelor’s degrees. Some of the colors represented on the hoods of our faculty members include:

Agriculture Maize

Architecture Blue Velvet

Arts White

Business Olive Brown

Communication Silver Gray

Early Childhood Education Maroon

Economics Copper

Education Light Blue

Environmental Science Antique Gold

Fine Arts Brown

Law Purple

Library Science Lemon

Medicine Green

Philosophy Dark Blue

Physical Education Sage Green

Science Golden Yellow

Social Science Citron

Speech Silver Gray

Theology Scarlet

PRESIDENT’S MACE

The College of the Desert mace, an ornamental club symbolizing the college’s governing authority, was added to the Commencement ceremony in 2017, crafted by former COD employee Matt Housewright. The use of maces dates back to medieval Europe. A mace is still used in England’s House of Parliament to represent the monarchy. The U.S. House of Representatives also displays a mace when in session. The College of the Desert mace which is made of oak, stands 37.5 inches tall and weighs about five pounds. The Office of the Superintendent/President is the keeper of the mace.
