But St. Patrick’s Day at Cornell operates on a very different schedule. For my first St. Patrick’s Day darties, it quickly became clear that the celebration kicked off long before most students would typically consider leaving their beds on a weekend. Annie Park St. Patrick's Day weekend in Collegetown. Around 2 p.m., another St. Patrick’s Day spectacle took place on Linden Avenue: the Ginger Run. For a first experience, I’d say Cornell's St. Paddy’s Day reputation definitely lived up to its name.

Reading time: about 6 minutesWhat better way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day than to watch a bunch of gingers run down Linden Avenue? Even with prelim season looming and that final push before spring break underway, nothing quite competes with St. Paddy’s. After all, St. Patrick’s Day is our holiday!”Sang’s excitement about St. Patrick’s Day is clearly shared across the Cornell community. Events like these — unstructured, unserious and entirely student-driven — create rare moments of collective joy that bring the much needed unseriousness that Cornell students must feel every once in a while. St. Patrick’s Day, a holiday built on exaggerated displays of identity and festivity, sets the stage perfectly.
