“TGIF” Thank goodness it’s Friday! The end of a week often is a cause for celebration. Why not turn Fridays on campus into “TGICCF,” or thank 
goodness it’s CC Friday! What are CC Fridays, you may ask? It’s a day when the entire campus can rally together and celebrate the unique Colorado College community of which we are a part. What started as an idea this fall has been transformed into a vision to start a new and lasting tradition across campus.
Each Friday we encourage faculty, staff, and students to show their support of CC and wear black, gold, or CC gear. For those of you who have a hard time picking out your wardrobe each day, Friday now is a no brainer … wear black, gold or CC gear!
Not only do we hope this turns into another great CC tradition, but we see CC Fridays as a way to increase campus morale and a great way to support where we work and the wonderful students that we work with. What a great way to display the uniqueness of our community to prospects visiting campus. How exciting for an alumnus back to visit campus to see how much the community has grown over the years. How exciting for a student walking to class to be reminded that they are at CC, the best place to continue their intellectual adventure through life. A student competing and representing Colorado College that weekend will be reminded that they are supported across campus. A CC employee walking into work on Friday is reminded yet again of the great place where they work and is rejuvenated and motivated to make a positive impact in the lives of our students.
With so many great reasons to participate in CC Fridays, the question isn’t should I, but rather which CC gear, black or gold item will I wear today? Each Friday … black, gold or CC gear will do … show your support of Colorado College !
