March Through the Alumnae Arch Guidelines
Please follow these guidelines to help us maintain a tradition that we hold dear, the March Through the Alumnae Arch.
This is a sacred ceremony.
- Alumnae only (no children or other guests are allowed to go through the Arch.)
- Required: Traditional white attire, neutral toned hosiery and black closed-toe shoes only. This is the only attire permitted.
- No gum, food or beverages.
- Alumnae walking through the Arch may not film or take pictures/selfies. You may return after the ceremony.
- Alumnae walk through the Arch in pairs.
- No stopping in the Arch, you must keep moving.
The Alumnae Arch is located within the campus Oval, near the walk between Rockefeller Hall and Reynolds Cottage. The Senior Class takes part in the March Through the Alumnae Arch to symbolize graduating from college and moving into greater service. Spelman alumnae, observing the white dress tradition, precede the Senior Class through the Arch.

Contact the Office of Alumnae Engagement with updates on lost and disconnected alumnae at 404-270-5064 or email us at alumnae@spelman.edu.
