Join St. Pat and his court online for the 113th Best Ever St. Pat’s coronation of the Queen of Love and Beauty and the knighting ceremony honoring St. Patrick, patron saint of engineers, at 7 p.m. Friday, March 12, at rol.la/2021Coronation.
The practice of knighting students every spring can be traced back to the beginning of the 20th century, when Missouri S&T engineering students declared St. Patrick the patron saint of engineers.
