What’s Spirit Day?
RPI Spirit Day is an annual virtual event that invites all members of the Rensselaer community to show off their school pride by taking a picture and sharing it online.
How Do You Participate?
Simply wear or display your RPI gear wherever you may find yourself and show everyone your pride in your affiliation with Rensselaer. Don’t forget to take a picture (safely!) and post it to social media with #RPISpiritDay2024. (Tweets and Facebook accounts with privacy settings won't show up on hashtag feeds, so remember to change your settings for the day, or submit it online through our folder.)
Have fun, be creative, be safe, and be as spirited as you like! Use creative props, include your kids and pets, paint your face, find an unusual locale. Show your support for our amazing current students, and give a shout out to your former (or favorite!) team, organization, or club. Or, simply wear red. Do whatever you can to tell the world that you are a proud member of the Rensselaer community. (You may also show your support for our student-athletes with a gift to Let's Go Red!)
As photos come in throughout the day, they will be shared on the following:
Rensselaer has global reach and impact, and so can you! Show your pride virtually by changing your profile pic or your avatar to an RPI-related image – we have several in the column at the right to choose from, or create your own.
You never know who you might see in your region or at your corporation who is an RPI alumnus/a as well! Tout your connection to the ‘Tute on RPI Spirit Day!
