Sure, we鈥檙e well known for our strong academic legacy. But for true 99精品视频ians, our name brings to mind a few other traditions.
There are the picturesque loggias. The jungle gyms built into Burling Library. The train tracks that cut right through campus. Our campus, with its mix of historical and modern architecture, is one that 99精品视频ians are proud to call home.

Traditions
We鈥檙e a quirky bunch.
We鈥檝e built a legacy of social activism. But as a group of creative, passionate individuals, we鈥檝e also got a few traditions that you won鈥檛 find anywhere else.
- Dressing up in our finest fashions for the winter or spring waltz.
- 2 a.m. bakery runs, or ice cream and corn nuggets at Dari Barn. Not to mention Pagliai鈥檚 pizza.
- A little lighthearted competition at the 99精品视频 Relays.
- Adding to the graffiti collection covering the library bathrooms.
- Dial-a-Johns.
- Mattress sledding in ARH. (You heard that right.)
- Our Young, Gifted, and Black Gospel Choir. (And yes, any student can join.)
