When is ucla undie run

I know that like I remember like.. Like you would see seniors with their graduation sashes doing it…. K: Um.. Some people can wear like their pajamas….

You know people are wearing…you know…they.. When I was in high school they banned having any kind of senior prank or event because of a previous year so I never had the chance to do anything to commemorate my high school graduation.

Hearing my brother describe the Undie Run gave me the nostalgia that he must have felt coming in as a freshman and being introduced to this folk tradition.

The Undie Run is a unique tradition because its meaning is subjective to each individual person and its something that continues to live on with both the students and the school. Despite the presence of university police and students affairs officers, students will be meeting at the corner of Strathmore and Gayley avenues to run around popular campus spots, including the Inverted Fountain and the Bruin statue, said Matthew Austin, the organizer of the event and a fourth-year communication studies student.

She added that people who are involved in illegal activities, including jaywalking and underage drinking, will be arrested or given tickets. A number of students have been arrested in previous Undie Run events for jaywalking and underage drinking.

The first Undie Run took place in spring as an alternative to the Midnight Yell, which involved students yelling loudly for a minute at midnight during finals week to relieve exam stress.

In , during the Midnight Yell, some students threw burning furniture out of their dorm windows. Los Angeles riot police arrested 19 students, and the university banned the yell, said Brad Greenberg, a law student who was one of the first 13 Undie Run participants in spring The event rapidly became popular, increasing from 13 students in to thousands in recent years.

However, there have also been a number of non- UCLA participants, which led to violence and damage to property, Naples said. This led the university to ban the run last fall. Most of the arrests were made for jaywalking, he added.
