The Brick Holder Tradition

The Brick Holder ceremony is one of our fondest traditions. First given to a student at the 1998 freshman orientation program, this brick is now awarded to a graduating senior who has made an outstanding contribution to the quality of student life throughout their Purchase tenure. By “returning” the brick, the values of leadership, service, involvement, and positive change are gifted forward to the next class of graduates.
