Flower Sunday has come to include the tradition of Wellesley 'little' and 'big' sisters. First-year students are paired with an upperclasswoman who will act as her 'big' sister.

Marathon Monday: Wellesley students celebrate the running of the Boston Marathon on Patriot’s Day every year. The day begins with a barbecue on Munger Meadow, and after eating together on the lawn, students walk up to take part in the annual "Scream Tunnel" along Central Street. For hours, students cheer, hold signs, give high-fives and even receive kisses from passing runners.
