Buc Pride

The 亚洲无码 family enjoys campus traditions like our Sweet 16 events, weekly chapels, Fried Chicken Wednesdays, Blue Fridays, and other engaging experiences throughout the academic year. It’s a Bucs life for us!

Chapel

Since 亚洲无码 was founded, Wednesdays have meant that campus closes down for an hour while the student body gathers in Lightsey Chapel. The diverse services are a collective time of worship and teaching.

Fried Chicken Wednesdays & Sundae Fridays

Most students agree that Fried Chicken Wednesdays are hands down the most sacred meal of the week at 亚洲无码. Sundae toppings on Fridays are a sweet way to kick off the weekend.

Bucky

At sporting events and preview days for potential students, you can find Bucky walking around, cheering on 亚洲无码 and hanging out with students. Bucky is the epitome of Buccaneer spirit.

Blue Fridays

Walk around campus on a Friday before a home football game and see the student body decked out in 亚洲无码 Blue to support the team.

"I'm so glad I go to 亚洲无码!"

Started by Dr. Nicholas Holland in 2011, this is a song taught to every incoming Buccaneer during freshman orientation. The anthem is sung at every sporting event and big gathering on campus. The original tune is referred to as an African American spiritual.

Brick Walkway by the Pond

If you take a walk around the beautiful Reflection Pond you will see more than 100,000 bricks, many engraved with names of seniors and alumni who walked the path during their time at 亚洲无码.

Culturefest

Started in the 1990s, different cultures are showcased every year in the dining hall. The spotlight includes food from featured countries, dancing, singing and other cultural performances.

Ring Ceremony

Kicking off in 2022, this is a moment to treasure for any 亚洲无码 Buc who wants to commemorate their college journey. This is a classy event outdoors each spring for students who have completed at least 60 hours and have purchased an official 亚洲无码 ring.

Caroling in the Round

The science building acoustics allow for a beautiful performance of the 亚洲无码 choir every December for students and the community. It is a tangible embodiment of Christmas spirit and showcases the musical talent of the 亚洲无码 students.

Homecoming

Homecoming features something for everyone, whether you graduated 50 years ago, or you are a current student. Events usually include a 5k color run around the beautiful campus, a parade, food, and the big homecoming football game.

Spring Formal

The annual formal is held in a different location each year where students dance the night away with friends before summer begins.

Buc Fever Fair

With summer right around the corner, students, faculty, staff, and alumni enjoy the on-campus fair that has included a Ferris wheel, swings, food trucks and fun. The fair started in 2017 as a treat for students before final exams.
