At the appropriate time the Pro Vice-Chancellor or nominated representative of the College will announce the award of the various certificates, diplomas and degrees in the order listed in the Graduation programme. Under the guidance of ushers you will move to the stairs on the right of the stage. As your name is called, holding your trencher in your left hand, you will advance across the stage and stand directly before the Chancellor. You will be ceremoniously capped by the Chancellor who will shake your right hand. You will then put on your trencher and cross the stage to receive your scroll from the Campus Registrar, taking the scroll in the right hand (no handshake).
