For many, being a member of the Logs is more than just participating in an a cappella group—it’s a transformative MIT experience, shaped by music, friendship, and a shared sense of purpose. Being a Log has touched the lives of countless members, creating lifelong bonds and unforgettable memories. As we celebrate 75 continuous years, we invite Logs alumni to reconnect with old friends, honor the traditions that unite us, and reflect on what it truly means to be part of this remarkable legacy. Join Logs from around the world and return to where it all began—on MIT’s campus—to celebrate what it means to be a singer, an entertainer, an MIT alum, and, above all, a Log.
