It’s not too late! Be a part of a Ship tradition which honors the past and celebrates the present. Shippensburg alumni parents, grandparents, and aunts/uncles of currently enrolled students are invited to attend a special Legacy Pinning Ceremony with President Laurie Carter and the Alumni Association to welcome current students into the Ship family. Before your student heads back to school this fall, join online from the comfort of your home to recognize the special bond you both share with Ship.

One legacy pin per student will be mailed to address listed on registration. A commemorative legacy gift is available for pick-up this Fall 2020 at the Rife Alumni House on-campus Monday – Friday, 8AM – 4PM.

As a reminder, students can attend the ceremony with their alumni family members at any point during their time at Shippensburg. While many families participate in the ceremony during their student’s freshman year, families may choose to participate any year, including their senior year. Traditionally, the Pinning ceremony takes place annually during Parents and Family Weekend.


Learn more about the Virtual Legacy Pinning Ceremony 2020 and RSVP by 8/5/2020 to receive pin.
