Tootsie Rolls
 |
Wooster students celebrated the 50th
anniversary of I.S. at Wooster in 1997 with the signature
Tootsie Rolls.

Each year when seniors turn their Independent Study projects
in to the Registrar, they receive a miniature Tootsie Roll as
a prize. The Tootsie Roll custom began about 20 years ago when
one of the College's registrars thought it would be a nice gesture
to give students something in return for their work on the I.S.
projects. Why Tootsie Rolls? It just so happened that the registrar
got a good deal on bulk Tootsie Rolls! While it may seem a trivial
thing, more than a few Wooster alumni have had their pieces of
candy bronzed for posterity.
