Coming Your Way The 10th Annual MainStreet Stride

The MainStreet Stride is a campus tradition – a springtime foot parade of red and black. Student organizations, as well as students, faculty and staff representing offices across the university, dress up in their best (and often most creative) red-and-black getups to parade their pride through campus. The parade begins at noon on Friday, April 10, on the plaza at University Pavilion and proceeds down MainStreet to the Campus Recreation Center Gymnasium.

The 2015 MainStreet Stride

Things are heating up on MainStreet! This year we are celebrating the 10th anniversary of the MainStreet Stride at the #hottestcollegeinAmerica. There will be a free picnic lunch in the CRC Gymnasium immediately after the parade, featuring a performance by the UC Bearcats Band, an awards ceremony featuring the coveted gnome trophies and the Student Government Inauguration.

To view this year's animated invitation, created by Ryan Fennessey, DAAP ’15, Aryan Hope, DAAP ‘15 and Patrick Fitzgerald, DAAP ’15, featuring “The University of Cincinnati is Heating Up America,” view photos from past Strides, and to RSVP your department’s participation, please visit
