When I was in HS *mumble* years ago, we rented our caps and gowns, and were not allowed to decorate them. Someone brought a giant inflatable beach ball to commencement, and a few people tossed it around, but that was the only "transgression" from decorum. (The commencement ceremony was re-broadcast on the local education public access channel. The beach ball scene was omitted...)

In college, everyone other than doctoral graduates rented caps and gowns. People decorated their caps, but it was pretty much only easily-removed items.
