1923 VEISHEA Item Info
- Title:
- 1923 VEISHEA
- Creator (Organization):
- Iowa State University
- Date Created:
- 1923
- Description:
- In an effort to foster class pride, VEISHEA 1923 organizers added a mock graduation Moving Up ceremony where each class advanced to the next level: seniors became alumni, juniors became seniors, sophomores became juniors, and freshmen became sophomores. Due to the harassment upperclassmen bestowed on them, those easily identifiable, beanie-clad freshmen particularly looked forward to the rite of passage bonfire where the beanies worn by every male were burned signifying they were no longer underclassmen. The ritual ended in 1934 due to lack of interest.
