Bright, bold, and full of energy, golden yellow is the academic color worn by students graduating with degrees in the Sciences. Whether in a lab, in the field, or at a microscope, science students are trained to ask big questions—and find evidence-based answers.
Wearing a golden yellow stole at graduation signifies not just academic excellence, but a commitment to curiosity, critical thinking, and advancing our understanding of the world around us.
First, on behalf of everyone at The Sash Company, we would like to formally congratulate you on this achievement. What an incredible milestone this marks in your life. And you did it. You graduated!
We’ve created custom graduation stoles and cords for over 20 years, and we have had the privilege of knowing that our cords have been with millions of students as they finally graduate.
And this is your turn. You studied late nights, you put projects together the night before, you wrote more papers or did more math than you have ever done in your life, you spent years honing your skills and applying new knowledge, and now you’re here. You deserve all the happiness and success that is coming your way.
We’ve all been there. It’s the end of an era, you’re surrounded by friends and family, you’re brimming with great memories, and the always famous Graduation Song by Vitamin C is playing: “As we goooo onnnnn, we reeeememberrrrr”. Parents are crying and taking way too many pictures that they’ll send to your entire family, you’re laughing and hugging your friends… you’re nervous, you’re excited, you’re graduating.
If you’re curious, you’ve probably wondered why we all follow these specific graduation traditions at high school and college ceremonies. What’s the meaning behind tassels and gowns, honor cords, commencement addresses, graduation sashes, and tossing your cap in the air… why are we all following these specific graduation traditions?
For over 20 years, The Sash Company has partnered with the most prestigious beauty pageants in the United States. Miss USA and more recently, Miss Universe. Our mission has always been to create high-quality, one-of-a-kind custom sashes using only the finest materials and threads.
For the past few months, we have focused our efforts on meeting a new challenge. The challenge of creating a product that is environmentally friendly and made with superior fabrics and textiles.
