A "cult" that started at Vanderbilt among a select group of the incoming frosh class. As the name suggests, lighting a candle is part of the initiation ceremony. Everyone in the cult is awarded a nickname once it is earned through something memorable. The founding members have created Candlebilt: The History, and a master list of active members and former members. Real names are never used between members unless in public where saying their nickname would draw attention.
