For Fordham students, the annual New York City St. Patrick’s Day Parade isn’t just an occasion to celebrate. It’s a chance to walk through history. A tradition that predates the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the parade is the world’s oldest and largest celebration of St. Patrick—and the Rams are a major part of it. Fordham is one of the event’s biggest groups, featuring upward of 500 marchers, including distinguished alumni and students taking it all in for the first time.
