Can I choose who will hood me at graduation?

Yes. Typically, your faculty advisor or committee chair performs the hooding at commencement. Approximately one month prior to the Doctoral Commencement Ceremony for a given semester, applicants for graduation will receive an email from doctoralhooding@tamu.edu with detailed information about the hooding process.
