Illumination Ceremony

This annual ceremony honors our graduates as they transition to become a member of the St. Olaf alumni community. The class lanterns are placed on the Campus Green on Friday, and we encourage students to locate their personalized lantern sometime during the day, leaving it in place until after the ceremony. At the end of the evening’s program, students should take their lantern as a remembrance of their time on the Hill. This event is free and open to the public.
