Legacy Pinning Ceremony 2026

Celebrate Your Norwich Legacy

At Norwich, traditions run deep.

If a member of your family attended Norwich University before you, and you are a current student or Norwich alum, you are a Norwich Legacy. By choosing Norwich, you are continuing a tradition that began with someone in your family who came before you, and creating a new chapter in your family’s Norwich story.

We are proud to celebrate the families who share this special connection to Norwich and grateful that you have chosen to carry that tradition forward.

A Family Tradition Worth Celebrating

Each year during Family Weekend, we welcome our newest Legacy families to the Norwich Legacy Pinning ceremony. During halftime of the Saturday football game, Legacy students will be recognized and presented with a special Norwich Legacy Pin.

But this is more than a pin. It is a symbol of the connection between generations of your family and the shared Norwich experience that brings you together.

The family member who came before you will have the honor of pinning you, creating a special moment that celebrates where your Norwich story began, where it continues today, and the tradition you carry forward together.

We invite you and your family to join us on the field as we celebrate the newest generation of Norwich Legacies.

Your family’s Norwich story continues, and we are proud to celebrate it with you.
