Traditions

The college campus environment can become stressful due to the importance of your studies and traditions serve to keep you grounded. They are a way for you to connect with your fellow students, while immersing yourself in the unique culture of your college. Every school has its own traditions that have been passed down from class to class and Lone Star College - Tomball is no different. The camaraderie and pride that come with these traditions help make the college experience unique. They help you gain much more than just an education. LSC-Tomball is proud of our campus and our traditions. Check out some of LSC-Tomball's traditions below. It's a great time to be a student at LSC-Tomball!
