Manners & customs

Description

Traditions help form a common history that ties a community together. Susquehanna University has maintained several traditions over the years that are described in this article in the 1965-1966 Student Handbook. One unusual custom was held each semester before finals. Students would gather at the campus pond and launch pennies at the frog in the pond's center. If one's penny landed on the frog, good luck on exams was assured! Some of these traditions, for example, the annual climb up Mt Mahanoy led by the President, still continue today.
