Mascot

Traill College is unique in having two mascots.

Scarf Ceremony

College scarves are a tradition that date back to 19^th-century Oxford, England. Originally worn by rowers and other athletes, the scarf began to gain a more universal appeal in the 20^th century. Scarves used to be solid in colour, but wool shortages during the First World War led to them having unique, striped designs.
