0 V51 , fi T The Adrian College campus abounds with many fun, unique traditions. One of the most sentimental of which is the Cane Ceremony. The ceremony, which follows graduation, is performed near the mound. Each class ties a ribbon of its colors onto the cane, then, the president of the graduating class hands it down to the resident of the next class. The cane dates flrom 1887, and the ceremony began in 1921. Another tradition, though little known, is touching the Lincoln Statue for good luck. The bronze statue sits in the library, where the class of '63 began touching its tail for good luck. A friendly 'hi' is popular on the AC campus. Adrian enjoys the reputation of being a friendly campus, with a friendly 'hi' to greet you all over campus. N 2 . z' an :f,'f QQ, A 9 0 wgf' , I 1

In 1984, the South Hall Bell was mounted atop a brick base near Ship- man Library. The senior class raised enough money to move the almost forgotten bell from inside the Carillon Tower to where it stands today. ln 2009, the class of '84 will return, and re-open E time capsule which sits beneath the e . Whereas the South Hall Bell beckons the future, Downs Hall reminds us of the pastp built in 1860, it is the only building remaining from Adrian's original campus. Downs Hall hosts the art gallery, a theater, and, as legend has it, a ghost that roams the halls. The newest addition to the host of campus landmarks is the South Lawn Sign, near Davis and Feeman Halls. The class of 1986 donated this small, granite sign to the college in April during the Cane Ceremony.

The rock, now in front of Ritchie Dining Hall, was first brought on campus in lanuary, 1962, by the brothers of the Tau Kappa Espilon fraternity. Painting the rock, they thought, would decrease campus vandalism and increase school spirit. But in 1965, the rock disap eared. Apparently, an irate Al- bion College student buried the rock in the front lawn of the dining hall. A few weeks later, after accusations flew from dorm to fraternity, the rock began showing through the ground. The rock that AC students paint today is only one- third of the original rock. ,.
