Celebrate National College Colors Day on September 3 by wearing orange and black for your chance to win some K swag from the Kalamazoo College Bookstore.

We are joining colleges and universities across the country in the annual Friday-before-Labor-Day celebration that fuels school pride. Simply use #ShowUsYourK on social media on the day and you’ll automatically be entered for a chance to win a Kalamazoo College sweatshirt, hat or mug.

We are encouraging current students, admitted and prospective students, faculty, staff, alumni, parents and the community to participate by posting photos of themselves, friends, family, colleagues and pets on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Alumni may also submit their pictures through email at info@kzoo.edu for us to post. Be sure to tell us in your posts why you love K!

Read the contest rules below and start considering how you will participate in National College Colors Day. By the way, if you need more orange and black, visit the new bookstore website. Thanks for letting your K spirit shine!
