As most Colgate University students are well aware, this past Friday was Colgate Day. Colgate Day is every Friday the 13th and is celebrated by Colgate students and alums alike. To celebrate Colgate Day, there was an ice cream social and cook out, as well as a lecture with keynote speaker Sir Richard Branson. This event brought a large number of visitors to the campus including parents, friends, alums, faculty, and students.
Another celebration was the worldwide trending of #colgateday, which was trending just after 1:00pm (at 13:13pm, exactly).
