Each year the University decorates the trees on College Walk with lights, and throws a celebration to mark their turning on. The event features free Hot Chocolate, roasted Chestnuts, performances by A Capella groups, and culminates with University President Lee C. Bollinger pushing the switch to turn on the lights. Supposedly the podium with a big red switch is just for show.
The Tree Lighting Ceremony is followed by the Yule Log Ceremony in John Jay.
