On the day in which summer school
students are laying the foundations
of a new university tradition, the
school picnic, it is of interest to glance
at the corresponding day in the regular
university session. Every year in May
ihe university classes are excused lor
a day set apart for the planting of the
iry the symbol of growth, and for at
tendant ceremonies.
On that day the May cueen is
crowned, the May-pole dance is held,
he Ivy day oration is delivered, the
senior class gift announced, the senior
class poem read, and the members of;
ihe senior honorary societies for the
following year announced. The Ivy'
day oration is delivered by some senior
elected for that purpose by the class.
The May pole dance is executed hy
the senior girls and the May ojieen
is elected by the senior girls, the
choice being kept a sceret until she is
crowned. The members of the Inno
cents and the Black Masques, the
senior honorary organizations who are
supposed to take the leadership in:
student activities during the year, are'
chosen by the outgoing members of
these societies. Their announcement
on Ivy Day is always looked forward
to with gTsi.t interest by the student
body.
The oration, the class poem, the
crowning of the queen, and the May
pole dance consume the program on
the city campus in the morning. In
the afternoon occurs the all-university
picnic at which the main event is the
-tapping" of the Innocents and the
Black Masques.
The class of '88, was the first to
plant the ivy, hence Ivy Day has ex
isted at the university nearly a scor
of years. The event was not looked
upon aB a senior day until 1!01, and
it was not until 1909, that it became
recognized as an all-university event.
The first May pole dance took place in
1503, which was also the first year of
the Innocent society. The Black
Masques have ben announced on Ivy
Day since 1905.
To university students this day has
become more and more treasured as a
tradition of the alma mater. It is a
day when memories of the -university
of yesterday are fondly rehearsed, and
the hopes for the university of tomor
row are given tree expression, a day
when the student body meets to foster
greater fellowship among themselves,
and develop greater loyalty to the TJni
Tersity of Nebraska.
