"The legacy of the Green Key Society is simple: students' undying dedication to the school they love."

Established in 1921, the Green Key Society is an honorary service organization at Dartmouth College. We are in a unique position: our members are drawn from literally all across the College. By virtue of our roles as stewards, ambassadors, and servants, every year, Green Key helps to run such traditional Dartmouth events as First-Year Orientation, the Bonfire, Homecoming Sweep, Commencement, Green Key Weekend, and many other events including performances, services, and guest speakers.
