Traditions
💛 Traditions
Since our founding in 1867, West Virginia University has grounded itself as an institution that cares deeply about the preservation of tradition. The heart of WVU lies in the people themselves, both within our campus and the communities in which we reside. The pride we share in our state drives us to work harder to best serve our institution, our community, and the state of West Virginia.

Welcome Week
Welcome Week is a giant celebration welcoming students back to campus. Welcome Week takes place the days leading up to the first day of classes in the fall. Popular events include Mountaineer Movie Fest, mini-Adventure WV activities, Monday Night Lights, and FallFest. With no classes and tons of things to do, this is a time when incoming students can explore campus and the town, meet new friends, and make memories that will last a lifetime.
