The Passing Hello

With almost 13,000 acres of hiking trails, caves, lakes, and cliffs, Sewanee offers a one-of-a-kind environment for learning and exploration. Not quite ready to tackle that rock climbing or caving trip solo? Join Sewanee Outing Program Director John Benson to hear all about how the SOP staff gives students the chance to explore the Domain, the surrounding region, and wilderness areas across the United States, how you can get involved, and how we gain a greater appreciation for the natural world around us.

With a history as rich as ours, tradition means a lot here at Sewanee. From signing the Honor Code on one of your first days on the Mountain, to celebrating Commencement by stepping on the University seal, tradition is an integral part of everyday life on the Domain. Hear from current student Kostas Andriotis and your host, Elizabeth Konradi, C’23, as they share their favorite traditions, explore how they have evolved over time, and how you, as a future student, can participate!
