Sasha Reed ’97, a research ecologist with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), has received the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers.

The third annual fall academic awards ceremony was held Friday, Oct. 28, as part of Family Weekend activities.

Colgate opened its classrooms and put campus life on display for hundreds of parents during Family Weekend 2011, held Oct. 28-30.  

This week brought … snow! (Among other things, of course) On Thursday, the campus saw its first snow of the season, a welcome sight for some, an unfortunate occurrence for others, and, for a few, a totally new experience.

This Saturday, while the Raiders prepare to defend their house before a crowd of Family Weekend supporters, President Jeffrey Herbst and his family will celebrate the rededication of their campus home, situated near the O’Connor Campus Center and the university observatory.

I will be heard!” Those words of Hugh C. Humphreys, master of ceremonies, rang through ���Ҵ�ý’s Golden Auditorium on Saturday during the annual induction ceremony held by the National Abolition Hall of Fame and Museum (NAHOF).

The Colgate Inn was officially dedicated during Homecoming weekend, though guests have been staying overnight, dining, entertaining, and enjoying the renovated historic inn for several months now.

This fall 12 members of Colgate’s admission team spent a total of 276 staff days on the road. They visited 850 high schools in 41 states and 24 countries. They were asked — and they answered — every conceivable question about the admission and aid process.

Lyle Roelofs, who served as interim president and as provost and dean of faculty at Colgate, has been named president of Berea College.

As a student, Mark Buttitta ’74 defended Colgate football’s line of scrimmage. As an alumnus, he still noted the passing of summer by counting off the weeks until practices would start at his alma mater.
