Junior Prom

Junior Prom was one of the most festive affairs held annually by the University of Buffalo. During the event, the Prom Queen, chosen through a popular election, was crowned. Bison Head then tapped new members from the Junior men of the University who were outstanding during the year. Provided that the dance was a success, the Board of Managers Scholarship was awarded to a Junior or a Senior who had been active in extra curricular activities. It was customary to procure a big-name band for the occasion.
