City of Monmouth

Re-established in the 90’s, Monmouth College students are lead by the pipe band down Broadway and throughout the town. In order to get the incoming freshmen acquainted with the area, local businesses are invited to to participate in the walk-out. Most businesses hand out anything from bottled water to pizza coupons. The event usually takes place on the Monday of orientation, following the Matriculation ceremony. It’s a great way for the students to learn about what is available to them outside of the college campus. Almost every new student has participated in the walk-out and has mentioned that it’s one of their favorite events to attend as a newly-titled Monmouth College undergraduate.
