Tech Traditions: What Every First Year Should Know
Open To: all students
Welcome to Georgia Tech! One of the first things you need to learn is all about the traditions that we Yellow Jackets hold near and dear. The Student Alumni Association and Georgia Tech Young Alumni want to teach you a little bit about Tech history and all about our unique traditions. Since you're here over the summer, you'll be ahead of the crowd and will know just where to find the Mickey Mouse clock, and how to do the Horse at the first football game.
