You make this day what it is!

LOGGER DAY CHALLENGE is a day of pride and philanthropy. It is an opportunity to come together to support each other, our community, and the university we love. To be a Logger is to be a part of something greater. As individuals, and as a community, we have an impact well beyond the classroom and our time on this campus. Once a Logger, always a Logger!
