Colgate Day
So this is too late for today, but every friday the 13th is Colgate Day. This means that anyone affiliated with the school (student, alum, faculty, staff, parent, etc) is encouraged to wear Colgate apparel or maroon (or maroon Colgate apparel) so that other Colgate people can see them and bond and generally promote Colgate enthusiasm.

Colgate was founded with "thirteen men, thirteen dollars and thirteen prayers," so thirteen is their number.
