Colgate Day


Colgate Day is Friday, August 13, and the Colgate community is rolling out a worldwide celebration of university spirit.


Alumni and friends across America — in Boston, Rochester, Savannah, and Seattle — will join together at festivities sponsored by the Office of Alumni Affairs. Keep an eye on the community events calendar for additional get-togethers in your area.

While parties play out elsewhere, President Jeff Herbst will welcome New York City alumni to the Bryant Park Grill Rooftop for drinks and hors d'oeuvres. There, the crowd will kick off a new Colgate financial aid initiative: The Millennial Scholarship Program (MSP).

Colgate will be ringing the closing bell at the New York Stock Exchange. You can watch it live at 4:00 p.m. EST.


Look for Colgate Day pictures from the Big Apple and elsewhere on Colgate’s Facebook page. While you’re online, be sure to post some of your own, too.

Closer to home, the Colgate Bookstore and other local businesses are offering special discounts in the days leading up to Friday the 13th.
