The 118th annual “Best Ever” St. Pat’s celebration starts next week, beginning with the opening of the snake pit for the Snake Invasion. The annual tradition marks the official start of St. Pat’s activities on campus, continuing a legacy that dates back more than a century.

Students, alumni and community members can take part in events throughout the week as St. Pat’s Board leads the campus in preparing for the holiday.
