Shoe Tree ceremony is Monday noon
Graduating seniors are invited to add their shoes to the UW-Green Bay “Shoe Tree.” It’s a Residence Life tradition, but when the original old oak near housing toppled in a storm, a new tree was designated closer to the Ecumenical Center. (Hence, the Bless My Sole ceremony set for Monday (May 9) from noon to 1 p.m. outside the Mauthe Center at the site of the “new” century-old oak.) Seniors knot the laces on old shoes and sneakers and toss them high into the branches.
