- Notes
- Cap Night was an important and colorful event. This was an annual mass meeting held in June at the end of the first college year. There was singing and speech-making during this celebration, and the highpoint of the evening occurred when the freshmen tossed their first-year caps into a bonfire (Source: Women's Voices, Bentley Historical Library, p. 84)
