New Student Orientation

August 25, 2024 : 8:30 - 10:00 p.m.

Golden Ticket

If you've ever wanted to feel like Charlie in the chocolate factory, this is your chance.

Hidden throughout the corners, nooks, and crannies of the Case-Geyer Library are 50 coveted golden tickets. If you're lucky enough to find one, it's more than just a shiny piece of paper. Each golden ticket is tucked inside an envelope that contains a gift card to one of Hamilton's local favorites: FoJo's or Flour & Salt.

So, as you traverse the library, engaging in various activities and familiarizing yourself with the space, keep your eyes peeled. The Golden Ticket hunt adds an extra layer of excitement to Club Case. Not only will you be exploring your new academic home, but you might just find a treat!

Best of luck on your hunt!

Event Description

Welcome to "Club Case," a vibrant and unique experience happening as part of the New Student Orientation. We are turning Case-Geyer Library into an extraordinary, carnival-esque wonderland for the evening.

Picture this: groups of new students moving about the library, not just among bookshelves, but between a multitude of engaging activities. You can dive into a specific activity that piques your interest, or feel free to roam around, sampling the variety of events spread throughout the building.

From games to interactive displays, every corner of Case will be buzzing with activity and energy. But Club Case isn't just about fun - it's also about familiarization. As you enjoy the activities, you'll get to know the many faces that make up our community and the spaces within Case where you'll spend much of your time during your journey at Colgate.

So, come ready to explore, have fun, and begin your exciting adventure in our transformed library space. The main aim is to acquaint you with your new academic home while having a blast!

We can't wait to see you there!
