Lantern Night ceremony While Freshman Camp was the beginning of the men's search for individuality, so, too, the Pitt women’s search started with the impressive l.antcm Night ceremony. This traditional event, first performed in 1926, has been passed on, with revisions, to all freshman women at Pitt. The express purpose of Lantern -Night was to help the freshman women set their sights on an academic goal and to encourage them to encompass ail that college offers. To emphasize this purpose, each woman was given a metal lantern inscribed with her name and the University seal. These lanterns, replicas of those lights by which Pitt’s first students studied, were presented to the freshmen by the alumni. Then Father Pitt, portrayed by the Chief Justice of Senior Court, led the freshmen and their mentors into the Commons Hoorn to receive the Gift of Light. There, in an impressive ritual, the flame-bearers lit the lanterns; the flame symbolized the search for truth, teachers, great books, true friends, and love of God. Alma Mater, portrayed by the president of W.S.G.A., encouraged the freshmen to always hold their lanterns high and culminated the ceremony by leading them in the pledge. “By this flame within my hand, I pledge my word, O Alma Mater, to seek for myself and for those who follow me, the inner light of truth.” SENIOR MENTORS who accompanied their groups to lantern Night were given lighted lantern to tignify that they, at frethmen, had received the Gift of light. AIMA MATER, flanked by Truth and Valor.entered the Common Room to officially receive the freihmen women into theUnivertity. 30
