PumpkinMania is back \u2014 and this year, it\u2019s “Carved in History.” Celebrating its 15th year, Transylvania University\u2019s signature fall tradition<\/a> will once again fill the steps of Old Morrison on Sunday with the glow of hundreds of carved pumpkins created by students, alumni and community members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The theme, “Carved in History,” highlights Transylvania\u2019s role in Lexington\u2019s story \u2014 nearly 250 years strong \u2014 while also celebrating alumni achievements and the legacy being created today by current students. It is also about the future: welcoming prospective students and families into a tradition that is both historic and alive with possibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2011, Transylvania’s PumpkinMania has grown from a campus event into one of Lexington\u2019s most recognized fall traditions, even landing on \u201cGood Morning America\u201d for its spectacular visuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPumpkinMania is where the past, present and future come together,\u201d said Transylvania President Brien Lewis. \u201cIt\u2019s a chance to honor our history, bring the community to campus and invite new students to be part of the story we continue to carve at Transylvania University.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
