I have childhood memories of looking at these trees <3

Freshmen, it’s the moment you’ve been waiting for since your tour guide mentioned it during your first Columbia visit. Everyone else, get some free hot chocolate and take the same Instagram pics you do every year. It’s tree lighting time!

The Tree Lighting Ceremony runs from 6-7 pm today on College Walk. Festivities start at 5 pm, though, which include Columbia giveaways, a cappella performances, and hot chocolate.

This is a super wholesome part of the year when everyone forgets about the horrors of past midterms and upcoming finals, so make sure to go! You know the pics will turn out cute, they always do.
