In many religions, food is love.

It's a space so nice, they built it thrice. And on Tuesday, February 17, students, faculty, staff, alumni, and friends all gathered at the James C. Colgate Student Union to cut the ribbon on a newly remodeled Donovan's Pub.

It was one of the most enduring social experiments of the Communist era: since the revolution of 1917, Russian families from various backgrounds have lived together in urban communal apartments. Colgate professors Alice Nakhimovsky and  Nancy Ries, with colleagues from around the world, have created an online museum to systematically document this unique lifestyle through pictures, video clips, articles, and artifacts.

Music was playing at Cipriani 42nd Street in New York City during the third annual Presidents' Club Auction and Reception on May 9, but you never would have known.

Colgate celebrated the sciences this weekend with two major events: the dedication of the new Robert H.N. Ho Science Center and the launch of the Harvey Picker Institute for Interdisciplinary Studies in the Sciences and Mathematics.

Alumni, coaches, family, and friends from around the country arrived at the Colgate Inn on Friday, May 4, to pay a unique tribute to the late Swimming and Diving Coach Mark Randall.

A day after launching Colgate's new fundraising campaign with a festive celebratory dinner, alumni, parents, faculty, staff, and students settled down to business. They convened on Saturday, March 3, for "Liberal Arts in the 21st Century: An Interdisciplinary Symposium with Colgate Faculty and Staff."
