University of Arkansas - Senior Walk - Virtual Tour
Senior Walk, a tradition unique to the University of Arkansas, includes the names of more than 200,000 graduates, from its first commencement in 1876 to the present. The walk starts at the front door of Old Main and wends its way across miles of campus, with each new class of graduates’ names being added about a year later each spring and dedicated at Homecoming.
