Raisin Monday is traditionally celebrated at the University of St Andrews in Scotland. It typically takes place on the third Monday in November. The event is part of the Raisin Weekend, a long-standing tradition where first-year students (freshers) are "adopted" by older students (academic parents) and engage in various activities and pranks.
