The Carol of Lights is a Texas Tech tradition since its start in 1959. The holiday ceremony involves the Tech choir singing out many holiday favorites and ends with a spectacular show of lights engulfing hundreds of students as well as the 13 building surrounding Memorial Circle. Among the students that attend, there is also a ghost searching for his girlfriend. Apparently one year just before the end of the semester, he received a letter from his girlfriend ending their relationship. Stricken with grief, the student hurled himself off of the roof of the Biology building. If you ever attend Carol of Lights and see a tall black man wearing a long coat standing next to you one minute and gone the next, you have seen the ghost of the heartbroken student forever searching for his love.
