Campus Traditions

Our time-honored traditions may become some of your favorite college memories!

Billy J Day

Classes are canceled for a day of fun and relaxation at the end of the spring semester. Enjoy yoga, lawn games, live music, a DJ, inflatable obstacle courses, free meals, happy hour and even liquid nitrogen ice cream, compliments of chemistry students.

Homecoming

Fall semester isn't complete without a full week of celebrations and competitions, including football, tailgating, Greene games, Casino Night and royalty.

Hanging of the Green and Lighting of the Quad

Celebrate the holiday season singing carols by candlelight, watching our Quad buildings come to life, hanging the green and seeing it snow inside. It's magical!

Walk Around The Quad

Your time at Jewell will come full circle when you take a walk around the Quad behind bagpipers on both your first and last day of college.

Sledding Down Browning Bowl

Known as one of the top snow day destinations in town, you'll want to take your turn at sledding.
