Hey Day should be enjoyable for everyone. There are several logistical changes that have been made over the past few years to ensure the safety of all participants.

According to University Archives, in 1916 Hey Day was established as a "moving up" celebration to mark the advancement of each class. As Penn's Class of 2010 steps into senior status tomorrow during Hey Day, their Class of 2009 counterparts will be moving up as well with The Final Toast.
Tradition is the name of the game here at Penn, but we should realize that the best traditions are those that maintain their heritage while being relevant in the present. This year, more than ever, it was clear to us that Hey Day had to be carried out with an openness to change.
