What Carleton traditions have you participated in? Any favorites?
-
I have participated in a bunch of Carleton traditions, and I'm not done yet. I've gone traying down Bell Field and played with Toff, the campus cat, but by far the most exciting was when my friends got the bust of Schiller and I was there to scheme with them at 3:00 a.m. about how to show it next.

Rotblatt, Spring Concert, Late-Night Breakfast, Halloween Concert, Knights Concerts on last day of classes. Late-Night Breakfast and Knights Concerts are my favorite.
-
My favorite tradition is the "Primal Scream." At 10:00pm the night before finals starts, everybody is supposed to stick their heads out the windows and scream at the top of their lungs. It's quite bone-chilling. Froshies, remember to scream the night before finals! Keep the dream alive!

In no particular order of preference: Freshman Frisbee toss, Rotblatt, Spring Concert, Halloween concert, blowing bubbles on faculty during opening convo, Late Night Breakfast and the attendant Primal Scream, chasing Schiller into a crowd of brawling Carls, Reunion, Mai Fete, and, as much as the administration may try to gloss over this, there is still a proud core of streakers on campus that I have joined once or twice.

I recently went to Dacie Moses House. It was incredible. One day, I hope to have Schiller.
-
Silent Dance Party is one of my favorites.

I’ve seen Schiller (or at least the backs of the masked people running away with Schiller) twice, and that’s always a lot of fun, with everyone jumping up and trying like crazy to catch a glimpse of him.

Rotblatt is amazing. I think that's all that needs to be said... There are a lot of swimming traditions too. Carleton is full of traditions, and the vast majority of them rock.
