Remembering six decades of passed alumni

The main bell in red square was decorated to commemorate McDaniel alumni who have passed away in the last six decades.

On Thursday September 27, the McDaniel Student Alumni Council gathered to remember McDaniel alumni who have passed away. Six candles rest on the bell’s podium, one to represent each decade. Members of the Student Alumni Council read off the decade and the names of those who have passed while ringing the bell. The idea behind the ceremony is to celebrate the lives of those who have passed and to remember their time here on The Hill.

The main bell in red square was decorated to commemorate McDaniel alumni who have passed away in the last six decades.

The history of the bell ringing and its explanation sit next to the bell in preparation for the ceremony.
