Elon University Top Questions

Elon is hebrew for oak, a variety of tree all across campus. As a freshman finishing orientation, you are given an acorn of an oak tree; graduation you are given an oak sapling. This little gift is a symbol of the growth you as a student experience while at Elon.

The best Elon tradition is Leo Lambert’s, our president’s, Holiday party. He invites all students to his house, the week before winter break, for a Christmas party. There is great food, caroling and you can wait in line to have your picture taken with Leo. THEN he mails it home to your family in a Christmas card. Such a good PR move! Another fun Holiday tradition is the luminaries, when all the campus comes out for free hot chocolate, caroling, and the lighting of the campus. It’s always a fun way to wrap up the fall semester and welcome the holidays.

While on Thanksgiving break, white Christmas lights are put up all around campus. The time right after Thanksgiving break to Christmas break is the most stressful before of finals. The lights put everyone is such a good mood :)
