Early May is often a stressful time here at Denison. Seniors are about to graduate, everyone is buried in papers, and finals are right around the corner. DRU offers a chance to unwind with our annual Maypole celebration. Each year, as close to Mayday as we can manage without interrupting exams, DRU sets up a maypole in the middle of A-quad. There's little in the way of formality on Maypole day; it's a time to relax, unwind, and frolic – yes, frolic. The Maypole celebration involves not only a traditional Maypole dance, but music from campus and local performers, flowers, dancing, and often free-form art projects. We hope you'll frolic on over come May.
