=== Traditions === [[File:ChapelSing.jpg|thumb|A Wabash College student earning their W during Chapel Sing.]] One of Wabash's most symbolic ceremonies is '''Ringing In Saturday''', which marks the beginning of each student’s college experience. Incoming freshmen are formally welcomed by the dean of students, the dean of admissions, the president of the alumni association, and the college president. Each student is ceremonially “rung in” by the president using the same bell that Caleb Mills, the college’s first teacher, used in the 1830s.<ref>{{cite web |title=Ringing In Saturday |url=https://www.wabash.edu/news/story/11064 |access-date=17 April 2025 |website=Wabash College}}</ref> During Homecoming Week, Wabash hosts Chapel Sing, a spirited and widely recognized tradition where fraternity pledges (and independent students) attempt to sing the college fight song, ''[[Old Wabash]]'', in unison before a panel of judges. Organized by the Student Senate and the Sphinx Club, Chapel Sing symbolizes school pride and serves as a rite of passage.<ref>{{cite web |title=Chapel Sing: A Tradition Like No Other |url=https://www.wabash.edu/news/story/12090 |access-date=17 April 2025 |website=Wabash College}}</ref>
