St. Olaf College is the college across the Cannon River from Carleton. It was founded in 1874, making it slightly younger than Carleton. It is about 60% larger than Carleton, with 2900 students. Its students are known as Oles. St. Olaf is affiliated with the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, and this is reflected in several ways in student life, including having non-mandatory daily chapel time. The campus is also dry (no alcohol allowed), leading many Oles to seek weekend entertainment in town or on the Carleton campus.
