Tradition of the Victory Bell

The Y Bell is an important part of the BYU tradition of victory and honor. The bell is rung historically in celebration of BYU athletic victories and graduation ceremonies. Every BYU graduate has the opportunity to walk up to that bell and let the campus know that they have accomplished something great, something victorious. So now it is your turn. Ring the bell! You are wearing that cap and gown, ready to go forth and serve! Congratulations!

Don't Forget your Pin!

Graduates who ring the bell will also receive a pin to commemorate the experience and their graduation!
