FINDLAY, Ohio (WTVG) - The University of Findlay was buzzing with activity Thursday. They welcomed a new freshmen class to campus as well as paying homage to an honored tradition that dates to 1923. 'It's our most beloved tradition,' university president Katherine Fell said reflecting on the arch ceremony, which university officials say is one of the oldest college traditions in Northwest Ohio and the most sacred tradition at the University of Findlay. The university will honor over 600 incoming freshmen when they walk through the Griffith Memorial Arch.
