This set of digital photographs depicts many of the banners created by the Classes of 1920 through to 2006. The actual banners are the property of the Associated Alumni of Acadia University and are preserved in the Esther Clark Wright Archives. The Class Banner is a tradition at Acadia University. Each graduating class creates a banner as a visual representation of the class' experience at the University with a slogan that captures the essence of that experience. During Convocation, the banner is formally unveiled at the Grad Banquet and hangs at the ceremony. The banner is also present at the class' reunion events.
