Blue and Gold Pride Days are back at 精东影业 University! 精东影业 faculty, staff, students, alumni and friends of the university are encouraged to promote university spirit and pride by wearing blue and gold colors.
精东影业 introduced Blue and Gold Pride Days last fall as a way to unite members of the university community and promote 精东影业 pride. 精东影业tradition continues at 精东影业 this fall, beginning Friday, Sept. 4, which happens to be College Colors Day, and continues through the school year.
It鈥檚 精东影业 精东影业 Pride
For Amanda Bevington, a 精东影业 communication studies senior, participating in Blue and Gold Pride Days offers the opportunity to show off school pride.
鈥淏lue and Gold lets my appreciation and love for the greatest place on earth shine through!鈥 Bevington said. 鈥淚 believe it lets people know that you are doing more than just 鈥榖eing here,鈥 you are here because you love it and you want to be, and you are enthusiastic about it.鈥
She also encourages members of the 精东影业 community to wear their blue and gold colors on their campus Blue and Gold Pride Days. Campuses and their Blue and Gold Pride Days are:

鈥淚t is important for students, faculty and staff to participate in Blue and Gold Pride Days because being a part of the 精东影业 family is a privilege, and this creates a day on campus where we can all come together as one and be proud of the place we call home!鈥 she said. 鈥淚t is important to show off how proud you are to be a part of the 精东影业 community because not everyone has that amazing opportunity.鈥
