Should I wear one tassel or two tassels at graduation?

[danyalovettie44]

Today I got my graduation cap and gown including two tassels. One is regular and one is an honor but both have 2017 on it. Do you think I should wear just the honor or both?

Wear the gold tassel

Wear both tassels

Congratulations! Anyway, this sorta depends on your personal preference, and school tradition. First, you should be proud of your accomplishments, and therefore wear both. However, if you feel like you are bragging, or being a tool for wearing both, then always wear the highest ranking tassel, (one for honors). Also, wearing two tassels may be a pain in the ass for taking pictures and stuff like that because they get in the way. Usually your guidance counselors will know what is proper etiquette for your school if there is any sort of tradition regarding more than one tassel. It is best to ask in case it would be found to be insulting to them if you only wore one or the other.

Wow, I don't think just anyone gets the two tassels. There is a reason probably that you have that cap, since it's for honor students i'm assuming. Where both. If I'm wrong about the reasoning of the honor tassel, than it still wouldn't be off to wear them both, and I'm sure others will be too. Wear both.

Most schools have someone in the registrar's office who is the graduation coordinator. Ask them the protocol for this question.

Dunno I never bothered with graduation. I just had the diploma mailed to me after graduating 6 months early. Hated school, couldn't leave fast enough.

I think you wear just the gold one. You are supposed to move it to the other side after you get the diploma.
