Matriculation Book?

I know that most/all of us signed our chapter rolls when we were initiated. How many colleges have matriculation books?

When this link

came in one of Bowdoin's weekly messages last fall I asked my husband if he remembered signing the book when he entered Bowdoin in the fall of 1958. He most certainly did.

I found this reference to Kenyon's book:

Anyone else? I suspect it's a tradition at smaller/older schools. Obviously it would be a logistical nightmare at a big university. (Just look at the number a Mizzou's Tiger Walk! http://calendar.missouri.edu/event/t...k#.UrCJ_qOA3IU)
