Draft:Yale College Class Day

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: The prize awardee tables are very large and unwieldy, and IMO totally unnecessary: Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, not a comprehensive catalogue of indiscriminate data. If the same information is available externally somewhere, please point to that resource via 'External links' section. (And if the information is not available, then might this constitute original research?) DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:54, 23 July 2023 (UTC)
  • Comment: Of the nearly 200 (!!) citations, the vast majority are to sources closely associated with Yale. Some are to non-reliable sources, eg. Facebook and LinkedIn. The remainder are NYT articles, most of which seem to cover Yale more generally, not the Class Day specifically, although as they are behind a pay wall I'm only able to go by the article titles. None of these sources establish notability per WP:GNG for the Class Day. Happy to be proven wrong, though, if the author can point out at least three reliable and fully independent (of Yale) secondary sources which provide significant coverage of the Yale Class Day directly and specifically.

Yale Class Day

[edit]
Planting of the Class Ivy[1]
1935 Class Day and clay churchwarden pipes[2]

Yale College Class Day is one of the most cherished traditions on the academic calendar where the graduating class gathers on Old Campus to reminisce about their time at Yale. When this tradition started in 19th century, the graduating class only numbered fewer than 100 students. Today, on the Sunday before University Commencement, Class Day is a lively ceremony of over 1,500 students that includes speeches with reflections, humor, and inspirations by members of the graduating class; the awarding of top academic, artistic, athletic and leadership prizes; the wearing of silly hats; and the waving of a white handkerchief while singing “Bright College Years.” The tradition of planting the Class Ivy began in 1852 near the wall of the Old Library, which is now Dwight Memorial Chapel.[3] Students are also presented with a symbolic soap bubble pipe, in observation of the tradition that started in the 1860s when graduates would gather in a circle, smoke a single bowl of tobacco from a clay churchwarden pipe, and then trample the pipe to symbolize the end of the pleasures of college life.[3][4]

A highlight of Class Day is also a notable speaker. Previous Class Day speakers have included Senators William Bradley, Paul Tsongas, and Cory Booker; journalists Bob Woodward, Tom Brokaw, Fareed Zakaria, Barbara Walters, and Anderson Cooper; authors Stephen Jay Gould, Carl Sagan, Christopher Buckley, Thomas Wolfe, and Chimamanda Adichie; Secretaries of State John Kerry and Hillary Rodham Clinton; actors Jodie Foster and Tom Hanks; 47th U.S. Vice President Joseph Biden; and 42nd U.S. President Bill Clinton.
