Hey Day 2025

May 1, 2025

Members of Penn’s Class of 2026 marched with canes along Locust Walk, wearing red shirts and faux-straw hats, in a tradition that is unique to Penn.  President J. Larry Jameson greeted the students at College Green officially pronouncing them seniors.  Hey Day marks the moment when juniors “move up,” becoming seniors, following the last day of spring classes.
