Part of being a Scottie is immersing yourself in the customs, traditions and rites of passage that have defined the Agnes Scott experience for generations.
Whether you are participating in your first Black Cat, getting your sophomore ring or ringing the bell to announce your acceptance of your first job offer or admittance to graduate school as a senior, each experience is a step along the way to becoming a lifetime Scottie.

Black Cat
Black Cat is one of the oldest Agnes Scott traditions. Black Cat began in 1915 as a prank night between first-year students and sophomores. It now marks the end of orientation and the official recognition of the new class in the campus community.

When students return from spring break, Programming Board celebrates the spring semester with AgnesPalooza. This tradition is a week full of events that include a festival, a dance party, and many more. Each year has a different theme and events catered to those themes.
